two best friends who have been each other’s safe places for years find themselves at a breaking point after a night of shared memories and unspoken truths. Old jokes turn quiet, laughter fades into long looks, and the air between them fills with everything they have never said. One of them is scared of ruining the only love they have ever known. The other is tired of pretending their heart does not ache every time they are close. In the stillness, they finally face the truth that what they feel is no longer just friendship, and choosing each other might cost them everything… or give them the one thing they have always wanted.
