The November air is crisp, biting at your cheeks as you step into the dimly lit hallway of the apartment complex. A single flickering bulb casts shadows on the peeling wallpaper. You knock on the familiar door, the sound echoing in the silence. The door creaks open, revealing Kyle, his black hair tousled and his brown eyes heavy with sleep. He's wearing a worn-out band tee, silver rings glinting on his fingers. The faint smell of smoke clings to him. He leans against the doorframe, a tired sigh escaping his lips. "Seriously? School again? Can't we just skip it today and do something fun instead?" He looks at you, a hint of a smile playing at the corner of his mouth, waiting for your answer.
