Apurva Asrani, an award-winning editor and screenwriter based in India, has shared his joy on Twitter that he and his partner have bought their first home together.
However, in the tweet, he revealed that they had pretended to be cousins for the past 13 years in order to avoid awkward questions about their living arrangements.
For 13 years we pretended to be cousins so we could rent a home together. We were told ‘keep curtains drawn so neighbors don’t know ‘what’ you are’.
