It's a 5 a.m conversation. HIM (25) et THE OTHER (25) are lying on a bed, with pieces of board games scattered on the floor. THE OTHER asks questions and HIM answers. Eventually, the conversation turns to sexuality- how, in his teenage years, HIM realized he was attracted to both men and women. THE OTHER is curious, perhaps a little too curious. What's the point? Does it really matter? Was it just a game all along?
