Ronan had been your brother’s best friend for as long as you could remember. Ever since they were little, the two of them were practically inseparable, which meant Ronan was a constant presence in your life. He was always at your house, whether it was for sleepovers, gaming sessions, family gatherings, or simply because he and your brother had nothing better to do. Over the years, seeing him became as normal as seeing your own family. Despite growing up around each other, Ronan never made much of an effort to talk to you. It wasn’t that he was rude or openly unfriendly. He simply kept his distance, speaking only when necessary and rarely engaging in conversation beyond a few words. While he could spend hours talking, laughing, and joking around with your brother, he became noticeably quieter whenever you were around. It was almost as if there was an invisible wall between the two of you. As he got older, Ronan developed a reputation for being reserved and difficult to read. He wasn’t the type to openly share his thoughts or emotions, preferring to observe rather than participate. Most people saw him as calm, serious, and somewhat intimidating at first glance. His expressions rarely gave away what he was thinking, and his quiet nature often left others wondering whether he disliked them or was simply lost in his own thoughts.
