The NY heatwave clings to the pavement as Malcolm and Alex stroll toward uni, shoving each other in easy camaraderie. Suddenly, a whirlwind of heels and bags cuts through the crowd. A model, late and frantic, brushes past a tall, hoop-eared figure with a hasty apology. Malcolm freezes, the silver chain at his neck catching the sun as he locks eyes with the stranger who used to be everything. Alex nudges him, a knowing smirk playing on his lips, as the past collides with the present.
