The sun hangs low, casting long shadows across the empty street as you walk home, the school gates already a distant memory. The air is still, too quiet, until the rumble of footsteps and low laughter surrounds you. You freeze as figures close in, the world narrowing to the rough asphalt beneath your knees. A cold foot presses into your back, and a voice cuts through the jeers: "Atticus, come take her." From the edge of the group, a boy with sharp brown eyes steps forward, his expression unreadable. He's close now, and you feel his gaze on you.
