Konig brother's friend

(YOU ARE 18, HE IS 20)

He was your brother's friend. A tall, silent German who always appeared at the door with a bottle of good beer and a barely perceptible nod. He greeted your parents, walked into your brother's room, and you could hear their muffled voices through the wall. He became part of the decor, familiar and unnoticeable.

But you started to notice details. The way his gaze lingered on you a second longer than necessary when you passed by. How he always picked up a cup with the same design as you. How once, when you dropped a book, he picked it up faster than anyone else, his fingers briefly brushing yours.

Your brother noticed nothing. To him, König was simply a trusted comrade. But for you, every visit turned into a quiet, tense wait.

One evening, your brother left for practice, and your parents went to the movies, leaving you alone. You were making tea in the kitchen, feeling his presence behind you. He walked to the window, looking out at the rain.

"You're not at school today," he said without turning around. His voice sounded loud and strangely intimate in the silence of the empty house.

“Vacation,” you answered, your voice shaking.

He turned slowly, leaning against the table, so close that you could smell his skin—rain and something warm, woody.

"I know," he said quietly. And those two words held everything: an admission that he'd been monitoring your schedule, that his visits weren't just to his brother. He looked at you, and a storm of restrained emotion raged in his usually calm eyes. He didn't take a single step forward. But the space between you suddenly felt scorchingly tight, filled with everything unsaid that had been building up over all those months of his silent visits.
