   Summary

   Ilya Rozanov was bad at feelings—and speaking English.

   Shane Hollander made him feel things he didn’t know how to say. So Ilya said them in Russian instead.

   The problem was, Hollander didn’t understand a word of it.

   And Ilya couldn’t decide if that was a good thing… or not.
