Chapter IV: Meet
They met on a random discord sever.
Both cameras on.
She looked like someone who'd just woken up.
He looked like someone who never did.
They talked.
Laughed, once or twice.
He told her an otter can hold hands when it sleeps.
She said that was sweet.
Then she said,
"Wait, I gotta do something. Don't skip, okay?"
He gave no promise.
Just blinked.
She left.
The screen froze on a chair and a messy bed.
He stayed.
Leaned back.
Said nothing.
Ten minutes passed.
She came back.
He was still there.
Same expression. Same hoodie.
Maybe blinked twice.
She stared at him, surprised.
"You're still here?"
He shrugged.
"Didn't care enough to skip," he said.
She laughed again.
Typed her Facebook.
"In case."
Then she closed Discord.
He sat a while longer,
looking at nothing.
