The wind on the rooftop carries a deep, isolating cold. Avery stands like a shadow against the railing, swallowed by an oversized hoodie, her face veiled by strands of brown hair. The distant school bell fades into the city's hum, leaving only the sound of the gale and the faint click of a silver locket chain twisting in her trembling fingers. When you steps into the space, she doesn't turn—her body goes rigid with defensive dread. Her voice, when it comes, is a threadbare whisper lost to the wind, a plea for solitude as her knuckles bleach white around the metal in her palm.
