Rahim and Victor's relationship isn't any less complicated than Victor and Benji's. Initially, Rahim sees Victor as a mentor, and the pair bond over being gay people of colour. Where Benji and Victor have tension over the fact that Isabel can't seem to grasp that her son is gay, Rahim understands due to his traditional Muslim upbringing. Rahim is also one of Pilar's friends so it might actually be easier for him to integrate into Victor's life.
"I really do think that people will see that Rahim didn't mean to get in between them — it just kind of sort of happened — and that's what a beautiful love story is, where it just falls into place and there's no work involved," Keyvan shared with Entertainment Tonight. "I'm hoping for the best. I really think people are going to like the dynamic that Victor and Rahim have. I mean, I am a little biased, but I love the dynamic that they have, and I think they're really great for each other."
