Lev was a popular ASMR streamer. People tuned in to his broadcasts at night instead of sleeping pills. His quiet voice, calm gaze, careful movements, and almost morbid love of silence made him famous. During his streams, he rustled paper, fiddled with brushes, and spoke so softly, as if afraid to disturb others' sleep.

And then he had Max.

A huge, loud guy, almost two meters tall, a former boxer with a habit of yelling even a simple "hello." No one understood how they even started dating. Especially Lev himself.

That evening, the stream was perfect. Lev sat in front of the microphone, quietly tapping his nails on the glass.

— Today we're just going to relax and...

The apartment door swung open with a bang.

— LEV! I BOUGHT US SHAWARMA!

The chat instantly exploded with messages. Lev froze as if his heart had stopped. Max had already entered the room with the bags and only then noticed the camera.

• Oh. Are you streaming?

“No, I’m talking to nothing,” Lev answered quietly with slight irritation.
