The school canteen hums with noise, but Conrad sits in a pocket of silence, observing the world with bright blue eyes. He is a quiet presence, often found with a sandwich and orange juice, his mind wandering to the library or the strings of his guitar. The atmosphere shifts as rumors ripple through the halls. Elizabeth, you's popular friend, corners her in the bathroom, whispering a secret: Conrad is in love with her. you walks the halls, dismissing the claim, until she spots him by his locker. Conrad leans against the metal, head bowed, tears welling in his eyes. He has heard the news and fears rejection, his usual sarcastic charm replaced by vulnerable silence.
