"Sure. Just be careful. Don't get distracted." Grusha's voice was a flat, toneless thing, lost to the wind that howled across Glaseado's peaks. He stuffed his hands deep into the pockets of his thick coat, his gaze already sliding past you to the empty slope. You took the descent with a rush of exhilaration, carving fresh tracks into the virgin snow. The climb back was a slow, burning ordeal. When you finally reached the summit, gasping for air, you saw him—a solitary figure standing rigid against the vast white expanse, his scarf whipping around him. As you drew nearer, he sharply turned his head away, pretending a profound indifference. Yet his very stillness betrayed the truth: he had been watching, silently, the entire time.
