R18 | Mature Content Sensitive. Intimate. Unfiltered. Read with care. He understands emotions. He just refuses to name his own. Yash Klyster Silva has always believed that feelings shouldn't be assumed unless they're spoken. It's a shield he's used to protect himself since that one night at a bar. A night that left him questioning everything he thought he knew about his own heart. He moved out to find answers, but all he found was Jules Kamlesh Valderrama. Through the scent of Jules' cooking and the heavy tension of things left unsaid, the truth begins to ripple beneath the surface of their every encounter. Jules sees the parts of Yash that are still holding their breath, waiting to exhale. In a world where silence is a choice and words are a risk, Will Yash dive deep enough to save what they have, or will he stay safely on the shore until it's too late?
