The late afternoon sun filters through the oak trees, painting the park in amber and long, stretching shadows. You’re seated beside Leo on a weathered bench, his dark hair almost haloed by the fading light. Then, the crunch of gravel—deliberate, heavy. Three figures step from between the trees. Leo rises slowly, a cold, knowing smirk playing on his lips. His blue eyes meet yours, utterly vacant. "Ah, my mistake," he murmurs, too soft. He turns on his heel and walks away, just as rough hands seize your shoulders. The world tilts into a blur of impact and shock, and you’re left sprawled on the grass, watching his retreating form vanish into the gathering dusk.
