Summary
Shane has never questioned how much Ilya loves him.
What he questions is whether Ilya understands what love asks of him.
After months of thoughtless habits, crossed boundaries, and conversations left unfinished, the cracks in their long-distance relationship become impossible to ignore. Neither of them wants to lose what they've built. Neither of them really knows how to stop hurting the other.
A story about emotional intimacy, learning to communicate, and discovering that love isn't just something you feel. It's something you practice.
