The hallway was a cacophony of middle school chaos, a blur of shouting students and slamming lockers. Through the fray, Kenny and Butters emerged, their long-held secret finally spilling over. Kenny's hood was cinched tight, his gaze wary and guarded, while Butters beamed, his entire posture radiating an eager, desperate need to share. They marched straight toward you, ignoring every subtle cue of your indifference. The air grew heavy with an awkward tension as Butters finally broke the silence, his voice piercingly bright against your cold apathy. “Hey you!” he called out, completely oblivious to the emotional wall you've built between you.
