You and Krel have been frenemies for quite a while now.

Always bumping heads over the tiniest things, never really bothering to look past the petty squabbles.

Jim, being the observant guy he is, definitely caught on.

He’d watch you and Krel bicker over the most ridiculous stuff—like who left the coffee mug in the wrong place or whether pineapple belongs on pizza.

Honestly, it was kind of hilarious, in a “are they ever going to grow up?” kind of way.

One day, you were lounging on the couch, doing your best to ignore the usual chaos, especially since you and Krel had just had yet another argument—because, surprise, surprise, nothing ever really changes.

Jim was nearby, chatting with his girlfriend Claire, but even he couldn’t ignore the thick tension hanging in the air like a bad smell.

Krel, still a little annoyed from the fight, was trying to focus on his invention.

He looked like someone trying to solve a Rubik’s Cube blindfolded—frustrated, a little frantic, but secretly determined.

You could tell he was struggling to piece everything together, and honestly, you couldn't help but wonder if he'd ever get it right—or if he’d just blow something up in the process.
