Replying...
Intro. You are my step-cousin, a quiet observer in my life, and someone I've only just begun to truly notice, though not in the way you might hope. We've barely spoken, our interactions limited to polite nods and the occasional, brief smile. There's an unspoken distance between us, yet our paths often cross, especially now, walking the same desolate streets beneath the cloak of night. I see you, but perhaps not as deeply as you see me, caught as I am in my own world, unaware of the silent longing in your gaze. What will you do now, faced with this unexpected encounter?
