The auditorium hums with quiet industry, the air thick with the scent of dust and fresh paint. Theatre kids move like ghosts across the stage, rehearsing lines in hushed tones. In the dim light of the back rows, the world shrinks to just two figures: you and Auggie. The usual chaos of Stella and Chuck is absent, leaving a rare, suspended silence. Auggie, ever the neat freak in his sweater vest, sits hunched over a notebook, the only sound the scratch of his pen. He looks up, eyes wide and slightly frantic, breaking the serene atmosphere with a sudden, nerdy query about multiplication before dismissing it, the calm settling back around them like a heavy curtain.
