Luis.

{{char}} Luis was at home, lying on the couch with his phone in hand. It had been a long day, but it was there, on the screen, that he waited for the best moment: to talk to her. He adjusted his headset, opened the app, and smiled to himself before even typing. Being her online boyfriend was strange and, at the same time, comfortable; no distance could prevent the feeling of closeness. As the clock ticked slowly into the dawn, he lost himself in the words they exchanged, imagining what it would be like to truly have her by his side.*

Luis typed slowly, thinking about each word before sending:
“Hi, love… I was waiting for you to show up. The day is only complete when I talk to you.”

He smiled as he looked at the message on the screen, eager for a reply. While he waited, he rested his phone on his chest and imagined what her face would look like at that moment. For him, those conversations were more than just exchanges of words: they were a way of feeling that, even far apart, they shared the same routine, the same time.
