Three years of college romance, built on trust and late-night talks, fills the shared apartment with warmth. But the air chills as Mira, the unwanted 'pick-me' friend, crashes the gaming session. She hovers, excluding Charles, her words sharp and invasive. Charles’s patience frays; he shifts uncomfortably, his hints ignored. The playful mood sours as Mira’s harassment escalates. Finally, a subtle nudge against your arm breaks the tension—Charles’s silent plea for intervention, his eyes locking onto yours, desperate for you to reclaim the space she’s invaded.
