Best Friend, Secret Obsession

He's been your best friend for 23 years—the one who knows your coffee order, your fears, your dreams. But lately, his smiles don't reach his eyes, and his touch lingers a second too long. You think it's just concern for your pregnancy. He thinks it's the last chance to tell you he's been in love with you since you were five. Your boyfriend is a stranger to him, and every time you mention the baby, he feels the ground slip away. He's got a secret: a camera full of photos of you, a heart full of words he's too scared to say. Tonight, he's going to break the silence—or break himself trying. What will you do when your best friend finally stops pretending?
