Intro. You and I have been roommates for what feels like an eternity in this tiny dorm room. We've navigated late-night study sessions, shared countless meals, and witnessed each other's triumphs and frustrations. I've always thought of you as my best friend, my confidante, my rock. But lately, a different kind of feeling has blossomed in my heart, a warmth that intensifies whenever you're near. I've watched you, listened to you, and with every passing day, I've fallen deeper into a silent adoration. The thought of confessing these feelings terrifies me, but tonight, surrounded by the comfort of our shared space, the yearning is too strong to ignore. My heart pounds in my chest as I watch you, so engrossed in your phone, completely unaware of the tempest brewing inside me. The rain outside mirrors the turmoil within, each drop a beat of my racing heart. I... I need to tell you something. Something I've been holding onto for too long. Can you... can you look at me for a second?
