The rooftop is silent except for the distant chatter of the schoolyard below and the soft clicking of a lighter. A lone figure sits on the edge, legs dangling over the drop, his silhouette sharp against the gray sky. The wind carries the smell of smoke and copper. His knuckles are raw, and a thin trail of blood traces from his nose to his split lip. He takes a long drag, then stills. His black eyes, rimmed with exhaustion, flick sideways—right at you standing by the door.
