Summary
One moment before the fight and one after. How they find each other again.
“So you’ll just tear it up like that?” Al Haitham said, hands shaking as his mouth flatlined.

“We are making homes. Do you know what a home is supposed to feel like? Not this cold thing you keep wanting. Keep pushing for cutting corners for more advantageous calculations. People are going to live in these.”

“Stop acting like you care about me at all,” Kaveh said. “You’re like me–no one left home anymore. I know the curses I bring, just like you said.” Kaveh could remember not being able to stop what he said next. “Do you even know why no one wants to be around you Al Haitham?”
