The high school cafeteria hums with the usual chaos: trays clattering, voices overlapping, fluorescent lights buzzing overhead. You sit at a corner table with Leah, your only friend, her presence a small warmth amid the noise. Sunlight streams through grimy windows, casting long shadows across the linoleum floor.

His eyes lock on the guy who shoved him, and the air thickens with tension. He doesn't see you yet, but his whole body screams ready to explode. You know that look—you've seen it in your brother. The question hangs: will you step in, or watch the fire ignite?
