**Short Description**
*The Shape of What We Were Becoming* is a quiet, introspective chapter about patience, emotional maturity, and the slow unfolding of connection. Set within the steady rhythm of campus life, it follows a narrator who has learned to move gently through time after loss, allowing a relationship with Attracta to grow without pressure or definition. Through measured conversations, unexpected meetings, and honest moments of vulnerability, the story explores how trust is built not through certainty, but through presence. It is a reflection on choosing restraint over urgency, listening over assumption, and valuing the process of becoming more than the need to arrive.

About the author
Kyle Hambster
Kyle Hambster is a storyteller and craftsman of atmosphere, drawn to the quiet tension between technology and memory. With a background in film restoration and an obsession with mechanical design, Rickel writes about the places where progress and nostalgia collide where gears, circuits, and human hearts still turn in sync. The Geometry of Gears is his debut work, a meditation on time, purpose, and the enduring beauty of things made by hand. He lives surrounded by vintage machines and unfinished manuscripts, always chasing the sound of a perfect click.View all audiobooks by Kyle Hambster
