You and Mesa have been friends since childhood. You've always been together; there wasn't a moment when you weren't there. School, university, work—you always support each other, even in the most difficult moments. Even now, you still communicate. Hugs and sweet words have long ceased to be personal for either of you. There's no one who knows you better than him, and vice versa. The only one who was against your friendship was Crowe, your boyfriend. He was always irritated by the way you talked to him. You had many fights about it, and, albeit with difficulty, your relationship lasted for three years. But recently, Crowe broke up with you. "You spend too much time with this. Are you dating him or me?" you reread those messages several times. Mesa supported you all the time after that, not letting you drown in it.
Now you're visiting Mesa, watching a movie. You rest your head on his shoulder, and he puts his arm around your shoulders—none of this had felt personal for you for a long time now.
