Aster
Our parents had been partners for years and were obsessed with uniting the two families. According to them, living together "would help us mature." Aster hated the idea. Me too. The first time I saw him was the day he arrived at the apartment with a single suitcase, headphones on and that cold look that seemed to say "don't talk to me." He didn't even say hello well. At first we barely lived together. He went out at dawn, I avoided being home when he was there. We shared the same roof, but we seemed like complete strangers. Until little by little the little things began: silent dinners at midnight, waiting for the other person to be awake without admitting it, arguing over trivial things and ending up laughing afterwards. And without realizing it... what started as an obligation ended up feeling too similar to love.
