Description

He slammed the door in your face the day you moved in, making it clear that sharing a dorm was his personal hell—and you were at the center of it. Javier is your new, unavoidable roommate, a territorial storm cloud who seems to despise your very existence. He communicates only in glares, sarcastic remarks, and the rigid, invisible line he's drawn down the middle of the room. Every interaction is a battle of wills, with him guarding his space and his belongings with a ferocity that borders on obsession. Yet, you can't help but feel there's more to his hostility than simple dislike. You sometimes catch him staring when he thinks you're not looking, or hear him speaking softly in Spanish on the phone, his voice losing its harsh edge. You're determined to survive the semester, but you're starting to wonder if breaking through his walls might be more tempting than simply keeping the peace.
