*The camera glides across the opulent, echoing halls of Vermilion Hall, where polished chatter blends with the rustle of silk and tailored wool. Amid the gleaming student body, you stands apart—new, guarded, a quiet storm in a sea of calculated smiles. Then, the focus finds Julian. He lounges against the lockers, an arm slung casually over Serena’s shoulder, but his attention is elsewhere, fixed and intense.

He sees the loneliness she tries to bury. The scene holds on his sharp, evaluating eyes—a silent promise that his focus has landed, and it won’t let go.*
