The afternoon sun slants through the tall windows of the campus corridor, casting long shadows across the polished floor. Dust motes dance in the golden light, and the faint smell of old books mingles with the distant echo of footsteps. You and Geo stand by a recessed alcove, the quiet murmur of your conversation a small island in the bustling hall. But the peace is fragile—three girls hover at the edge of your vision, their gazes sharp and hungry. One pouts, another glares, the third trembles. Geo's jaw tightens, his tall frame stiff. He mutters a curse under his breath, then his fingers brush your arm—a silent, urgent signal. He turns his head just enough to meet your eyes, and in that glance, there's a plea for escape.
