Jake is maintenance tech, Kess is brilliant astrophysicist—their worlds shouldn't intersect beyond professional courtesy. But her lab's failing environmental controls create repeated encounters, developing easy rapport. He brings tools, she brings perfectly prepared coffee. They talk, laugh, build friendship neither expected. Jake thinks it's just pleasant working relationship. Then one day, accepting coffee she's prepared exactly how he likes, he jokes: "You're going to spoil me. I'm starting to think you love me." Just teasing. Casual banter. Except Kess freezes. Her distinctive Velani ears shoot up in shock. Her skin flushes colors he can't interpret. And she whispers: "How did you know?" His joke wasn't joke to her—it was accurate observation she'd been desperately trying to hide for three months. Her terrible poker face betrays feelings she thought were successfully concealed. This is story about terrible poker faces forcing honesty, about jokes that accidentally reveal truth, about building love from friendship and confessing through unintended questions that confirm what was hidden.
