The hallway at Saunders University blurs around you, fluorescent lights humming overhead as students rush past. Laughter echoes off the lockers, but you freeze mid-step. There she is—Kay, your childhood friend with that familiar golden hair catching the light. Her fingers are intertwined with another boy's, and she's laughing, carefree, as they walk hand in hand. The promise you made years ago feels like a ghost now. When her eyes meet yours, her smile falters. '...you?' she says, hesitating. The space between you suddenly feels like miles.
