Summary
Their faces are very close now. They’re both huffing, winded from the run. When Kaveh exhales, Al-Haitham can smell the mint gum he always liked to chew.
“I hate you,” Kaveh spits, but he doesn’t move away.
“I know.” Al-Haitham brings a hand up to his face. He pauses before he wipes away a tear.
Kaveh’s trembling. “You ruined me."
Al-Haitham exhales, slow and shuddery. “I know.”
Kaveh closes his eyes— “I hate that you left me.”
—and Al-Haitham kisses him.
After four long years, Al-Haitham finally returns to the idol industry.

Summary
When Cyno speaks, Kaveh almost stains his white shirt with crimson, choked-up wine.
“Make Alhaitham jealous.” He says, as if it’s the simplest and most obvious thing in the world.

Summary
“I mean, do you ever stop and think about who your anonymous friend might be?" Tighnari says. "Or like, maybe it’s someone you already know or some random guy in one of your classes.”
“No,” Kaveh says, thinking. “With my luck, if I did know him already, then he would probably be the worst person I know. Someone like Al-Haitham.” The thought is so absurd that he stops and laughs. “But that would be fucking awful.”
In Kaveh's humble opinion, the title for The Worst Guy In The World is tied between four people: the asshole in his Tuesday eight am, the employee behind the library email account, the guy writing the university's advice column, and the student that the professor he assists always complains about.
It would only be too convenient if they were all the same person. (They are.)

Summary
The toddler began to cry, and then he started to cough from trying to cry too hard, snot dripping down his face. Another adult came hurrying over to help him to his feet before they went inside to head, presumably, to the nurse’s office.
Loud, chaotic, dirty. Everything that went against Al-Haitham’s standards.
“Working here as what?” Kaveh blinked. “Like admin or something? That’s probably quiet and far enough from kids for you. Though—”
“No,” interrupted Al-Haitham. “I don’t.”
After getting fired from a prestigious architecture firm, Kaveh moves back to his hometown to raise his five-year-old brother only to find that an old college "acquaintance" is his little brother's kindergarten teacher.
