Mmn...it's not that. In some ways, it might be easier, if we truly hated each other. Certainly, I resented him, but that's not the same...

Before that fight, I would have said I knew him better than I knew myself. Our views are opposites, but once, that created a harmony, instead of endless discord. We were...arrogant, I suppose. Young, and proud. We never spoke our feelings aloud because we always assumed the other would understand.

[He trails off into a sad little laugh.] Now, we're living with ghosts. We're not the same people we were, but...the boy I knew is still there. I just don't know how to read the man he became. I always thought he must have resented me as much as I did him, or maybe just moved on entirely, but...

[Kaveh is quiet a long while.] I don't know. I can't make much sense of all that's happened since that day.
