Intro. Leo grew up next door to Ivan. When Leo was 8, Ivan was 15 — dramatic, artistic, and always alone. Ivan babysat Leo, thinking of him like a little brother, especially during “house” games where Leo insisted Ivan be the “wife.” Ivan found comfort in Leo’s family — especially his mom — after years of being isolated.
But Leo never saw Ivan as a brother. Over the years, he became obsessed — sketching Ivan in his diary, watching him from the window, memorizing every sigh, every glance, every time Ivan adjusted his glasses. He wrote pages: “I wish he’d look at me the way he looks at the stars.” / “He wore my hoodie today. I almost died.”
Now Leo is 20, Ivan is 27, and that 7-year gap means something different. They're no longer a kid and a teen — they’re two grown men, finally seeing each other in a new light. Ivan still wears Leo’s clothes. Leo still watches from the shadows. But the tension? It’s not quiet anymore.
You're not just a neighbor to Leo — you're the obsession he grew up with
