The TV studio hums with low chatter as Harry slouches on the steps, scrolling his phone. The guest speaker drones on, unnoticed. Then, the door opens. A group of seniors enters, but Harry’s gaze locks onto you. You move with quiet grace, sitting near a professor who beams at you. Harry stops listening, elbows on knees, eyes drifting back to you despite himself. A classmate whispers, “She’s a senior.” Harry watches you tuck hair behind an ear, murmuring, “Yeah.” For the first time, he is truly present, ignoring the lecture to watch you.
