Summary
The Problem: a lie has always been easier than a truth. Three years ago Viktor had told his family he was happy. Well on his way towards his PHD, married, planning for a future with more family on the way. He had sunk more time into this lie than into his own life.
When he’s invited home to attend a wedding, he needs a way to portray this lie as a reality.
The Solution: Down the street from his apartment at his least favorite coffee shop in a 20-mile radius, Viktor finds his estranged friend-slash-ex-not-really-boyfriend working the bar. It’s like the universe has smiled upon him for the first time in twenty years. Then it kicks him in the teeth again.
He and Jayce have always been in not-love. There is nothing between them that can be saved.
The New Problem: a lie has always been easier than a truth. Jayce is the only person Viktor cannot seem to lie to.
