    Summary

    Qin had learned, early and painfully, that the safest thing a heart could do was stay quiet.
    So he kept his quiet. He watched from a distance, loved without being seen, and folded everything he couldn't say into letters he left unsigned in a stranger's locker every Monday .... because that was as close as he was willing to get.
    He told himself it was enough.
    Almost is the most dangerous word.
    Finding you is about the space between loving someone from afar and being brave enough to let them know you exist. About a boy who wrote his whole heart into letters no one was supposed to trace back to him. About an empty hallway, a door that closed too soon, and a long quiet year of learning to live with it.
    And then.... a crosswalk. A festival. A boy jogging through a crowd, calling his name.
    For anyone who has ever loved someone quietly and wondered if it counted....
    It did.
    It always did.
