Summary
It starts, embarrassingly enough, with an ad from Craigslist:
"I’m a 21 y.o art student (male), writing a thesis on the relationship between performance and the awareness of the audience. You don’t care about that. I’m an actor offering to give you the most dramatic night of your life. I’ll be your date to any event/function/family gathering, and convince your friends/family members that I’m either: the biggest mistake of your life or the best thing that ever happened to you. Up to you. I’m very good at what I do."

Summary
Elio accompanies his father to a Classics conference in Paris in early 1988, and runs into Oliver at the get-together cocktail event on the first evening.
“I heard his laugh before I saw him. I hadn’t heard it in over four years, not since that final night in Bergamo, and even now it didn’t sound quite the same. The lightness of it was gone. Yet, it was similar enough that I recognized it immediately.”

Summary
Laurent flies to Ios for a job interview, and stays with an old friend for a weekend. Damen, unknowingly, reminds him of how different everything could have been. It just so happens, Laurent is falling apart.
Laurent’s mischievous grin softened into a smile. He studied Damen’s face under the dim light of the balcony. Shadows were smooth around his sharp, brown features. Laurent turned his head away, a small smile lingering on his lips as he gave his cigarette a long puff and released the smoke slowly.
“Idiot,” he muttered, getting a soft chuckle from Damen.
“Laurent?”
“Hm?”
“I’m really, really happy to see you.”
Laurent did not turn around to see Damen’s genuine expression match his genuine words. He didn’t need to.
“Idiot,” he muttered, again. And, then, almost by an irresistible force of truth, he said, “Me, too.”
