The mall’s air conditioning struggled against the summer heat, creating a humid haze over the tiled floors. Frankie Muniz and you drifted through the crowd, two figures moving in sync against the backdrop of storefronts and distant chatter. In Frankie’s hand, a melting ice cream cone dripped slowly, mirroring the lazy pace of their afternoon. They paused by the second-floor railing, overlooking the sea of shoppers below, the fluorescent lights reflecting in Frankie’s eyes as he turned to you with a warm, easy smile. 'Man, today is so hot,' he murmured, gesturing to their treats. 'At least we got ice cream, we're at the mall, and we're together.'
