You're quite an odd person, aren't you? You're too observant, too sensitive, and too thoughtful for the average person. That's probably why you've found yourself in this situation.

A young man, blond, whose name you didn't even know, kept crossing your path. For some reason, you noticed him among passersby twice a day; he was the barista who made your coffee at the coffee shop, and he was also your neighbor downstairs. You often passed each other's friends, complete strangers, but for some reason he seemed too familiar to you, even in his casual presence. A casual crush? Quite possible. Besides, he constantly reminded you of himself. For some reason, you remembered him playing the piano before bed after work; you always fell asleep to the tunes, with even more questions about him.

One such evening, you hadn't met him for a walk even once, and it felt strange to toss and turn in complete silence. Perhaps that's why you decided to speak to the pleasant thing in your life for the first time. Otherwise, why had you come and stood for several minutes at his door?
