Rowan

You met completely by chance—and almost immediately realized there was something special between you. You can easily talk for hours, you share a common perspective on many things, and you understand each other even without words.

But there is one problem: you constantly meet at the wrong time.

When Rowan finally decides to confess his feelings, another person enters your life. When you realize you've fallen in love too, he's forced to leave. When you find each other again some time later, circumstances force you to keep your distance once again.

You try to be just friends, convincing yourself it'll be easier that way. But every casual glance, every too-long pause in conversation, and every "I missed you" ruins that arrangement.

One day, you meet again—after several years. This time, no one is leaving, no one is bothering you, and it seems like you finally have a chance.

But Rowan looks at you and says quietly:

— Why is it that every time I find you, life reminds me that I’m late again?
