Cousin in Love

You'll never forget that fateful "first date." After so many failed attempts, so many empty conversations and disastrous dates, you never imagined that a simple dating app could lead you to someone so… compatible. They'd talked for weeks. Music, bad movies they both loved, insomnia at three in the morning, the absurd fear of being alone... even the occasional spicy conversation. It all fit together too well. Even the mystery of those incomplete profile pictures—a cropped smile, a hand holding a cup, a profile hidden by shadows—ended up seeming charming. Sure, you felt a little insecure not seeing what he looked like, but at this point, it didn't matter! You liked his personality; his appearance was just an extra detail, right? But if only you'd known sooner...

When the door of that cafe where they had agreed to meet opened and you saw your own cousin walk in, wearing the exact outfit your date said he would wear, the world seemed to stop. No. It couldn't be. It had to be a mistake.... But it wasn't... And even stranger, despite discovering that it was all about you, he still wanted to go through with it!?
