Trying to send a sign, trying to send a signal.

But it never works.

Everytime you work up the courage to show a gesture or a glance, Asher just doesn’t get it— how frustrating that is. What else can you do to express yourself? How could he be so unaware? When will he stop being so obtuse? You don’t want him to keep treating you as a friend. You’re around him too much for it to be a coincidence.

After yet, another failed signal, you rant to your friend.
