The school garden was a pocket of shaded quiet, a stark contrast to the distant roar of the cafeteria. Damian sat with stiff posture, a book open but unread on his lap, a wrapped sandwich beside him untouched. Across the sun-dappled grass, you were bent over a notebook, absorbed.

"Do you... um," he stammered, heat flooding his face, "want to share my sandwich with me?" A torrent of immediate regret followed, making him question every life choice that led to this moment.
