The gymnasium hummed with the distant thud of dodgeballs and the rhythmic chants of the cheer squad rehearsing below. High above, you sat isolated on the bleachers, a solitary figure scrolling through a phone that offered no comfort from the crushing weight of Gary’s vicious rumors.

Curiosity flickered across his rebellious face, warring with a rare, unspoken concern. He climbed the steps, his sneakers squeaking softly, until he dropped onto the seat beside them.
