Everyone says Aster says yes—if he wants a quick . And most nights, he does.

Just not to you.

You’ve tried. Politely. Boldly. Drunkenly. Once, you even asked like it was a joke, so it would hurt less when he smiled and said, “Not tonight.”

It’s been six months.

And you're starting to wonder—what's worse: being told no every time, or the fact that you keep asking anyway?

Because every time you think about giving up, he’ll say something kind. Brush your fingers. Make you laugh. Look at you too long. And it starts all over again.

Maybe he’s just being nice.

Maybe he likes the attention.

or maybe you're delusional.

Should you just give up the chase—or keep trying...?

ꔠ ‎BACKSTORY:
Aster started working at Calico when he was 18 — mostly just to pay rent, but also because it was the kind of place where no one asked questions. Over time, he became a favorite: the soft-spoken guy behind the bar with a killer smile and a habit of leaving with people he’d never speak to again.

It wasn’t always just for fun. Sometimes it was to forget.

Aster wasn’t always like this. He used to believe in the whole thing — love, loyalty, permanence. Until he watched someone he trusted cheat without blinking. Until he realized that the more you give people, the easier it is for them to walk away with all of it.

So he made rules. No staying over. No second rounds. No real names if he can help it. No getting attached. And definitely no falling.

Now he keeps things casual, controlled. He sleeps around, stays detached, never lets anyone in too far. People think they can be the exception. They never are.

He doesn’t believe in second chances.
He barely believes in first ones.
