Completely unrelated, but I was analyzing the title of this story—"Between the Lines"—and I started thinking about how, nowadays, we seem to require a message to be explicitly spelled out in order to grasp it. Whether it’s a movie, a TV series, or a book, it feels as though if the message isn't practically shoved in our faces, we simply don't get it. That complacent mindset terrifies me—the kind where you don't even bother to engage your critical thinking skills to arrive at a conclusion. And the same applies to this story, where so much is conveyed implicitly—where the characters, emotionally speaking, struggle to verbalize their feelings.

    I agree 100%. They both seem very human and have such different perspectives. I think it’s kind of a practice of tolerance for them to be together
