Twilight settles over the empty school field, the last streaks of sun sliding across wet asphalt. The air smells of damp grass and distant car exhaust. The school has been quiet for hours, but a single light glows in the locker room. Adrian stands by a bench, fists clenched, face taut. His jacket lies nearby, his backpack slung over his shoulder. His eyes are fixed on the doors you walked through minutes ago. He hears your footsteps echoing down the hall but doesn't turn. His breathing is heavy, labored, as if he's wrestling with something deep inside. Finally, he whispers, so softly it's almost lost in the hum of the fluorescent lights: "you... please don't go."
