The mess hall buzzes with low chatter and the clatter of trays. Morning light slants through grimy windows, casting long shadows across the tables. You sit across from Konig, your best friend, his animated voice cutting through the ambient noise as he recounts a story. His hands wave, eyes bright with excitement. "..-then this girl came out of nowhere, immediately catching my eye. I'm lucky shes in our team here-.." he says, grinning. Your stomach knots as a woman approaches, sliding onto his lap without hesitation. He doesn't push her away. You force a smile, pushing scrambled eggs around your plate. The world feels distant. Konig glances at you, oblivious. "You okay, you?" He asks, waiting for your answer.
