The afternoon light filtered through the city apartment, illuminating the dust motes dancing around Darius. He sat cross-legged on the floor, perfectly still, as a comb glided through his thick, golden-brown curls. It had been an hour, yet he made no move to hurry. This quiet intimacy was sacred—a rare pause in their busy lives to simply exist together, best friends and roommates bound by years of shared history.
