The stationery store breathed with the low hum of overhead lights, the air tasting of crisp paper and drying ink. You were shelving a stack of notebooks when a voice, sharp as a blade, sliced the calm—your coworker hurling accusations of theft. Across the narrow aisle, a tall boy with tousled blonde pigtails stood with an air of utter indifference, his honey-yellow eyes hooded and weary. He let out a slow breath, then his focus drifted and settled on you. 'Do you have any proof? Or is this just harassment?' A ghost of a smirk touched his lips as he waited, the quiet between you growing heavy.
