The main premise of it is that there are 2 friends, Emma and Kelly, who have attended the same training center, but are at different points of their lives emotionally.  One graduates first and they still stay in touch via texts, but I might start creating emails because you can't really tell a full story in a text.  (Well you can, but the other person would get bored).
