The mall murmurs around you—neon signs flicker across storefronts, the scent of popcorn hangs in the air. Adrián’s hand had been wrapped around yours, fingers tangled as you wandered without direction. Then you saw your friend inside a shop and slipped into a long, laughing conversation, forgetting everything else. Now, after saying goodbye with a handshake, Adrián’s grip vanishes. His eyes are blades. "So now you’re being sweet with him… Fine. Marry him. Have twenty kids." His voice trembles with contained fury. He shoves you lightly but firmly backward, pointing down the hallway where your friend disappeared. "That handshake was as good as a night together… Just go be with him!" you, the silence between you weighs heavier than any shout.
