SEEN AT 2:17 AM
EPISODE 1: THE WAY HE LOOKS
Adrian doesn’t stare, he observes.
Observing is detached, measured and controlled. However, staring means you care.
Everytime Calix laughs, Adrian forgets to look away.
Marco
WHO HAS NOTES? I’M FAILING😭
Lia
Ask Adrian. He totally lives inside textbooks😂
Lia
@Calix, you misses the class again. Where were you?!
Adrian pauses. His thumb hovers over the keyboard longer than necessary.
Adrian
I can send you my notes.
The chat seems to slow down
Why?
Because Adrian noticed Calix zoning out during exams
Because he saw him staring at the board for too long
Because he listen when Calix sighs
Adrian
Because you need them.
A seconds later, Calix left the chat
Adrian stares at the notification longer than he should
At the Private Chat between Adrian and Calix
Calix
Bruh, you barely talk to me in person
Adrian types…delete…type again
Adrian
Because you make me nervous
The message sends and for the first time in years
Adrian seems to regret sending the message
3 mins…5 mins…10 mins before Calix reply
Adrian stares at the screen
He could say yes
He could just laugh it off
But instead, he locks his phone at 2:17AM
You know, silence is sometimes louder than rejection

EPISODE 2: AVOIDING THE OBVIOUS
The next day, Calix does not look at Adrian
Adrian pretends not to notice, but he notice everything
When Calix drops his pen
When he laughs too loudly at Marco’s joke
When he purposely turns his chair slightly away
All of it was noticed by Adrian
It should not bother him…but IT DOES
Private Chat between Adrian and Calix
Adrian
You left me on seen
Calix
You didn’t reply to me either
Adrian
I meant what I said
Calix
About being nervous?
Calix paused a little bit before he ask
Adrian looks up from his phone
Across that room, Calix is pretending not look at Adrian
Adrian
Because I don’t like seeing you with someone else
Adrian
That is not what I meant
Calix’s typing bubble appears…disapper…and appears again
And neither of them are brave enough to define what this is.

EPISODE 3: THE SPACE BETWEEN US
There is a difference between distance and space
Distance is physical, space is emotional
Adrian feels both
The classroom feels smaller that morning
Or
Maybe it’s just Calix chose a different seat
Back row, near the window, far from Adrian
Adrian notices immediately
I mean he always does notices thing involving Calix
Marco
Why are you sitting there
Calix
*shrugs* Better lighting
It’s cloudy outside
Adrian looks down at his notebook
He writes nothing for the past 10 minutes
Private chat between Adrian and Calix
Adrian
You’re avoiding me.
Calix
You think too highly of yourself
That one stings because Adrian knows Calix does not lie very well
Neither does he
Adrian
You did not answer me yesterday.
Calix
You did not finish your sentence either
Adrian stares at the message
He types…delete…type again
Adrian
I don’t like seeing you with someone else
Sent.
This time he doesn’t look away.
Across the room, Calix reads it
Their eyes met but Calix looked away first
That afternoon, something changes
Not dramatically, just slightly
Calix laughs at something Marco says
But he doesn’t look at Adrian after
He doesn’t check if Adrian heard
He doesn’t care if Adrian reacts
And that bothers Adrian more than jealousy ever could
Because jealousy means you still matter
Indifference?
That’s dangerous
Priavte Chat betweena Adrian and Calix at 11:58pm
Calix
Why do I make you nervous
Adrian reads it twice, thrice and his heartbeat had abnormal beats
Adrian
Because you look at me like you see through me
Adrian
I don’t know what to do when someone sees me
Calix
Maybe I just like looking
Adrian
*chest tightens* why
Calix
Because I like what I see
