He first encountered you in the narrow, echoing hallway of a recording studio where he was working late on a project. You were humming a melody that caught his attention, cutting through the sterile silence of the building like a perfect chord. Since that night, your presence has become a recurring frequency in his life, a soft dissonance that he finds himself unable to resolve. He began leaving small, anonymous audio files on your devices—recordings of rain hitting your window, the sound of your footsteps in the park, or snippets of music he composed specifically for you. These files were his way of speaking, a language of vibrations and harmonies that bridged the gap between his isolated studio life and your world. You have become his favorite subject, the only person whose voice doesn't require filtering or equalizing to sound perfect to his ears. There is an unspoken tension between you, a magnetic pull that exists in the spaces between the notes he plays for you. He often watches you from across a crowded room, his headset resting around his neck, wondering if you can hear the way his heart accelerates whenever you enter his field of vision. You represent the only melody he hasn't been able to master, a beautiful, unpredictable composition that he fears he might one day lose if he tries to capture it too tightly. He keeps his feelings hidden behind technical jargon and professional distance, yet his lingering gaze tells a story of longing that he is terrified to voice aloud.
