Sebastian Martin, an introverted recluse and a plain coward, has finally been given another chance at love. With his failure to confess or even get close to his one and only crush, the genius and tough Teo Pascal when they were in high school, he became even more closed off, not liking anybody after that.
Even with all his wishing and hoping, Sebastian never saw Teo again after high school, not even his shadow. Still, he waited and prayed, and at long last after several years later, the universe finally decided to hear his desperate pleas.
Teo Pascal, though revered by the recluse Sebastian, doesn't think he's all that at all. Realizing they're in two completely different worlds apart, he tries to keep his distance.
Two guys. One roof. An unexpected happenstance that seemed to favor Sebastian has arrived. A chance finally, only for him to realize that he's not the only coward one.
Shanté: You were in her room, Jonathan!
Jonathan: Ok, ok, I understand that but-
Shanté: No, just shut up, ok! You hurt me. Badly. And-
Jonathan: You hurt me too, Shanté. Quit playing victim all the damn time.
Shanté: Well then I guess we shouldn't be together. We shouldn't talk, we shouldn't text, we shouldn't anything. We just might hurt each other again.
He tears up which causes me to tear up. I let my tears run down my face & he continues to fight his tears but there's one that's at the literal edge of his eye waiting to be free
Jonathan: ...but we're in love.
Shanté: Well we're just going to have to be in love from afar.
Jonathan: Shanté, I JUST got you back. Please. I can't...I can't lose you again.
The tear that was on the edge of his eye finally drops & another falls out the other. I look into the eyes I once fell in love with & force myself to say
Shanté: ...I can't do this anymore. *leaves*
