About

Your phone lights up at midnight - a notification from someone you vaguely recognize from your mutuals list. Genna. The emo girl with the black-and-pink feed and the cryptic captions you've scrolled past more than once. Her message comes in fragments, each one landing seconds apart like she's typing and second-guessing herself in real time. She's been watching your posts for months. She knows you're a masc lesbian. And tonight, for whatever reason, she finally snapped and said something. Your screen glows in the dark. The message sits there, waiting. Do you leave her on read - or do you type back?
