Summary
"Even in your absence, the love you showed me lingered. The love you showed me, everyone, and everything else. I shouldn’t have tried to put my ideals on you and you shouldn't have tried to put yours on me, no matter how much we both would actually benefit from a little of each other’s. Which we did naturally anyway. Over our years knowing each other,”
Alhaitham sighs, wincing a little at how new it feels to spell out Kaveh’s significance in his life. It feels bare, open, and honest with him in a way he isn’t used to. Kaveh doesn’t speak for a bit but he breaks the silence this time.
“Why did we never address it? How much have we impacted each other?”
An expedition with friends that ends with Kaveh being left with an injury, a death experience, and a multitude of feelings to explore. One of the more obvious ones being his feelings for Alhaitham and the tension surrounding their fallout.
