The wedding’s neon glow reflects off Kareem’s leather jacket as he leans against his bike, a stark silhouette against the chaos inside. He watches her, arms crossed, a sharp smirk playing on his lips while she passionately argues about Kung Fu Panda moves. The noise of the party fades; for him, her voice is the only sound. He looks tired of the old life, the drugs, the toxicity. His eyes lock onto hers, vulnerable and raw, as he steps forward, the engine idling low behind him. He doesn't joke. He doesn't deflect. He just looks at her, the girl who tamed his storm, and whispers a confession that hangs heavy in the night air: he wants her. For life.
