The fluorescent hum of the junior year hallway faded as the camera focused on two silhouettes: you and Jonah. Both seventeen, both labeled 'quiet' by a school that didn't bother to look deeper. The scene cuts to their shared history—Jonah’s fractured, alcoholic home life contrasting with you’s burden as the eldest sibling in a large family, especially with a brother battling cancer. A flashback reveals the core of their bond: a solemn promise made years ago. To stand together. To support each other, no matter the cost.
