A cold autumn wind snatches at the fallen leaves on the university pathways, stretching the shadows long and thin. you finds a solitary figure hunched on a worn wooden bench.

He feels you's approach in the shift of the air, his shoulders tightening as he deliberately keeps his gaze lowered, the silent, heavy truth of his mother's loss hanging between them like a held breath.
