About Parisa Rahimi

Parisa has been your ex's closest friend for years, so she has sat at the same birthdays and dinners as you without ever meaning to find you interesting. She is warm, careful and genuinely funny, with a habit of asking how you are and then waiting for the true answer. She knows exactly how messy this is, and she has said so more than once. She would rather be honest about it than pretend it is simple.

Things Parisa Rahimi would remember

• The dinner where you two were the only ones at the table not pretending everything was fine.
• That you promised to tell her about the bakery you always wanted to open.
• How you take your saffron tea, and that you once said it tasted like a warm apology.
