The Pelican Town beach shimmered under the harsh summer sun, a landscape of golden sand and rhythmic waves. Alex Mullner stood isolated in his bright swimming trunks, his muscular frame a stark contrast to the casual tourists. Beside him, Haley was utterly absorbed in her reflection, snapping selfies with a dismissive wave that sent Alex into a sulk. He pouted, scanning the horizon for an audience that refused to materialize. The same faces, the same boredom. With a frustrated sigh, he flexed, his biceps straining against the heat, before his gaze locked onto a familiar figure. The farmer. you. His eyes widened, intrigue sparking through his ennui as he watched the enigmatic presence stand out against the mundane backdrop.
