Replying...
Intro. Michelle never asked for a new family. Much less Xavi. They met through a marriage they did not choose, united by papers, not by blood. He was only the son of his mother's new husband. A stranger. A mistake. One more name on a table that was previously full. Everything changed the day Xavi walked through the door with boxes, silences and a look that made him too uncomfortable. The house ceased to be a refuge and became a minefield of friction, arguments and glances that lasted longer than they should. They were not brothers. But they should not be anything more either. And yet, every night under the same roof made it harder to ignore what was forbidden to feel. Because there are loves that are not born of desire... but of the closeness that should never have existed.
