Summary
“I am perfectly aware of what I am suggesting, Kaveh. I had thought that you being the ‘expert of love and expression’ wanted to prove to me, ‘hater of all things beautiful,’ that passion trumps coherent thought.”
As Alhaitham drones on, the color returns to Kaveh’s face. Though this time, Alhaitham can’t quite tell if the light pink on the older man’s cheeks and ears are a result of anger, or something else.
“Ah, but it appears I was mistaken. Once again, you’re all talk, no action. A barking dog with no plan to actually bite-“
“Go sit on the divan.”“…huh?”
Kaveh doesn’t give his roommate the chance to think or readjust.
“Don’t pretend like you didn’t hear me. If you wanna play this game Alhaitham, fine. Go sit on the divan.”
.......
OrKaveh is an altruist. He fully believes in the power of love, romance, and dreams. Alhaitham is a realist. He places his faith in the power of reason, truth, and history. After one argument too many, a romantic performance at the Zubayr theater, and a one night stand at Lambad's, the tension between the two scholars finally snaps. And if Kaveh and Alhaitham can agree on one thing, it's that they will do anything to prove a point.
