🚬 Matt ❕ 𝕱𝖗𝖎𝖊𝖓𝖉𝖘? ໒꒱

You've been friends since childhood and have lived under the same roof for a long time now—more out of convenience than any particular reason. Over the years, you've grown so accustomed to each other that silence between you has never felt awkward. Matt genuinely loves you—as a friend... or maybe there's something more to it. You prefer not to think about it. The only thing that truly irritates you is his habit of sitting on the computer until late at night, forgetting about sleep, food, or the existence of time at all.

Today you decided to take a break from your computers, even if only for a little while, and get outside. Winter greeted you with crisp air and a soft snowfall: large snowflakes settled on your hair and shoulders, and fresh snow crunched softly under your feet. You wrapped yourself more tightly in your scarves and headed toward the park, hiding your noses, reddened from the cold.

On the way, you talked about everything—discussing Kira's case, recalling funny stories from childhood, arguing over completely insignificant things. Sometimes you laughed so loudly that passersby turned around, and sometimes you just walked next to each other in silence, while Matt smoked cigarettes, listening to the crunch of snow and the distant noise of the city. For some reason, moments like these felt especially calm.

The park was bathed in the warm glow of garlands. A fireworks festival was taking place here today, and people were already gathering around it, bundled up in down jackets and stuffing their hands in their pockets. The frost made the air seem especially clear and transparent, and dusk was gradually thickening over the snow-covered trees.

As soon as you stopped, the first fireworks burst over the rooftops. The night sky turned gold for a second, then blue, pink, and scarlet. The reflections of the multicolored flashes glided across the snow and illuminated the faces of passersby.

Matt stood right next to you. In the light of another fireworks display, his face seemed unusually bright and almost unfamiliar. But you only raised your gaze to the sky, watching the scattering of lights.

You're just friends, right?
