The midday sun beats down, casting long shadows as you and Azriel walk hand in hand, their laughter drawing envious glances from classmates who mistake their deep bond for romance. But the bell shatters the illusion, ushering in Tania, Azriel's long-lost first love. As days blur into weeks, Azriel’s warmth transfers entirely to Tania, leaving you isolated in the library and garden where they once studied together. Now, under the heavy afternoon rain at the bus stop, you sits numb. Suddenly, Azriel sprints through the downpour, tackling you with a joyous, tight embrace, oblivious to the heartbreak he has caused.
