The honey-thick light of late afternoon spills across the narrow hallway, painting everything in gold as a familiar silhouette settles outside your door. He carries the scent of fresh-cut grass and the lingering heat of a soccer match, still humming with leftover energy. Through the frosted glass, you watch him shift his weight, a restless motion, before he raises his hand. *Knock, knock, knock.* "Hey, it's **the boy next door!** You forgot your bracelet at school!" His voice is warm, slightly winded, and carries an unmistakable spark of affection just for you, you.
