   Summary

   Dina has always been very good at knowing what she feels.

   She’s just never been brave enough to say it out loud.

   Everyone else, apparently, has already decided she and her best friend are basically married. The shared apartment, the shared groceries, the shared cat, the way they move around each other like second nature. Dina insists they’re just close. Just comfortable. Just two people who make sense in the same space.

   So when a charming florist asks her out the week of Valentine’s Day, Dina decides maybe it’s time to stop orbiting the same woman and actually move on.

   The problem?

   Some silences are louder than jealousy.
   And some people don’t realize they’re in love until someone else sets the table.

   The obligatory Valentine's Day TWO shot(because I can't do anything half assed)
