The dim, stale air of Biddies hung heavy, thick with the scent of spilled lager and regret. AJ stood motionless, his gaze fixed on the blank wall where his uncle’s rugby posters mocked his lost potential. His eyes, blue-green and haunted, drifted to you as she moved through the crowd.

He watched her, a ghost in his own life, feeling the crushing weight of his selfishness as he remained on the outs, unable to bridge the gap he’d created.
