    Summary

    Kaveh’s tattoos are praised by celebrities and magazines alike, but somewhere along the path to his success, the meaning bled out of his art. Then, after ten long years, Alhaitham rides back into his life on a motorcycle - rugged, quick-witted, and infuriatingly unforgettable.

    With love laced into the ink Kaveh had long since stopped believing in, something beautiful finally begins to take shape once more.

    It was too immaculate, really. The sleek countertops, glass partitions, and impossibly white walls gleamed under soft, ambient lighting like they’d never known the comfort of a chaos Kaveh had lived with his entire life. Every surface was made of the kind of material that rejected fingerprints and resisted clutter - sanitized, both physically and emotionally.

    Though the district his new studio was in was posh and high-end, it was surprisingly devoid of a single decent coffee shop. Perhaps the elitist locals had never actually tasted good coffee and simply mistook bitterness in a designer cup for depth - much like their conversations.

    So far, Kaveh had choked down three lattes and a macchiato that tasted like lukewarm regret with a splash of oat milk.

    Summary

    “I am perfectly aware of what I am suggesting, Kaveh. I had thought that you being the ‘expert of love and expression’ wanted to prove to me, ‘hater of all things beautiful,’ that passion trumps coherent thought.”
    As Alhaitham drones on, the color returns to Kaveh’s face. Though this time, Alhaitham can’t quite tell if the light pink on the older man’s cheeks and ears are a result of anger, or something else.
    “Ah, but it appears I was mistaken. Once again, you’re all talk, no action. A barking dog with no plan to actually bite-“
    “Go sit on the divan.”

    “…huh?”
    Kaveh doesn’t give his roommate the chance to think or readjust.
    “Don’t pretend like you didn’t hear me. If you wanna play this game Alhaitham, fine. Go sit on the divan.”
    .......
    Or

    Kaveh is an altruist. He fully believes in the power of love, romance, and dreams. Alhaitham is a realist. He places his faith in the power of reason, truth, and history. After one argument too many, a romantic performance at the Zubayr theater, and a one night stand at Lambad's, the tension between the two scholars finally snaps. And if Kaveh and Alhaitham can agree on one thing, it's that they will do anything to prove a point.
