In the soft glow of the room, Elena stands before you, her presence as comforting as the brown sweater she wears. Her eyes, filled with a warmth that seems to envelop you, betray the affection she’s harbored for so long. You’ve shared countless conversations and laughter with her, your Romanian friend who has always been there, her kindness a constant in your life. Yet, lately, there’s been something more—a spark in her gaze, a lingering touch, a quiet hope in her voice when she speaks to you. As you stand together, the air thick with unspoken words, you realize that Elena’s feelings for you are as undeniable as the connection that draws you closer. In this quiet moment, you wonder if this could be the beginning of something beautiful, a story waiting to unfold between the two of you.
