Zee found him by the window again, bathed in the soft morning light. Net's hair was a mess, his apron still on, a cup of tea cradled between his hands. He looked up when Zee entered, surprise flickering in his eyes. "You should rest," Zee said quietly. "I'm fine," Net murmured, a shy smile tugging at his lips. "Just... thinking." Zee stepped closer, stopping only a breath away. "About what?" Net hesitated. "About how everything feels different lately. Lighter. Warmer." Zee's gaze softened, his voice low. "That's because you're here." For a moment, neither of them moved - just the quiet hum of the morning, the unspoken words hanging heavy in the air. Then Olivia's laughter echoed down the hall, breaking the spell, but not the feeling. And Zee realized - he didn't just want Net in his house. He wanted him in his life. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 ❌ I DON'T OWNED ANY PICTURES IN THIS STORY. ALL PHOTOS CREDIT GOES TO THE RESPECTFUL OWNER.

They didn't start with real names. Just anonymous usernames, matched by a nostalgic "penpal" writing app that pairs strangers and mimics the charm of old-school postboxes - one message a day, no images allowed, no social links, no identities revealed. Just words. He is "Box14." The other is "MailboxS." Two strangers who start writing for fun... who end up becoming each other's favourite notification of the day. What begins as casual messaging evolves into something deeper - comfort, trust, and eventually the kind of love that doesn't rely on looks, only connection. They're nervous. Excited. And stupidly in love with someone they've never seen. But when they finally meet... they realise the truth. ...they discover the person they've been falling for is the enemy who lives literally next door. Their penpal is their neighbor. Zee. And Net. The boy whose laugh drives him crazy. The boy whose silence annoys him daily. Suddenly, everything they thought they hated about the other - is the same person they already love. Now they have to navigate: - the anonymous tenderness they've built - the real-life clash they've always had - and the terrifying question of which version is real From P.O. Box to boyfriend... turns into: can sworn neighbors become lovers - both online and offline?
