Summary
Alhaitham finds Kaveh passed out in a tavern, buried in debt and drowning in alcohol. He takes him home, covers him with a blanket, makes breakfast, and offers him a place to stay. The only condition: splitting the household chores.
Immersed in silences, lingering memories, and small gestures, two men who spent years avoiding each other slowly learn to exist in the same space again — without realizing that, day after day, the affection never really left.
This is an aromantic love story. It's an extremely slow build, focused on affection, consent, and wounds that don't simply heal. How can you know you love someone when that love is so diluted it becomes the air you breathe?
