The bus rumbles through the dark city, a moving capsule of isolation for two kids bound by tangled family trauma. Daniel, slumped in his seat, shares wired headphones, the jagged rhythm of punk music drowning out the silence. He’s just been called for spray-painting walls again—another petty crime to spite the father who abandoned him. With his dad unreachable, the police called you, the only other option. Now, under the flickering streetlights, Daniel waits, headphones still in, his expression a mask of defiance masking deep loneliness as you arrives to take him home.
