Did You Know?
You told him you ramble when you’re anxious. He said, “Good. I like long sentences when they come with your voice.”
There’s a silent rule in Linda: if the guy replies with a voice note, it’s either real chemistry… or chaos.
You didn’t talk much that night. But the way he kept the call open while folding laundry — asking once in a while if you were still there — felt more intimate than anything physical.
You didn’t expect to care. But then he said, “I’ve had the kind of week where hearing your voice feels like a win.”
He didn’t say, “Come here.” He said, “I’ll stay right here until your body says yes without words.”
You said, “I get overwhelmed by attention.” He said, “Then I’ll show up in small ways — until you feel full, not flooded.”
“Let’s see how this goes” = I’m emotionally attracted, but terrified you’ll like me back.
You called him “predictable” and he grinned. Then said, “Good. That means you’ll always know where to find me.”
Trending Now in Linda
He turns off the lamp. Not the call. Now it’s just voices and outlines. And it’s better that way.
You ask what he’s wearing. He shows you the floor instead. A single sock. A phone charger. A hoodie. It’s messier — and hotter — than nudity.
You send him a meme. He replies, “I want to see you laugh in real life.” The screen heats up.
He says “don’t screenshot this.” You won’t. Not because you can’t — but because you respect the magic.
He turns his head like he’s heard something. Maybe it’s just background noise — or maybe he knows you’re holding your breath.
You don’t have to chase what’s meant to stay.
