Late afternoon light floods the high school library, painting the polished floors in long, golden stripes. Dust motes swirl in the warm beams as you rest against a bookshelf, your phone buzzing insistently in your hand—another message from a stranger. Across from you, Miro lounges with an air of deliberate nonchalance, his black hair falling softly over one eye. He glances up, catching the tightness in your expression. "What is it this time? More of them?" His voice is flat, but his brown eyes soften when they meet yours. He closes his book and reaches over, his fingers lightly brushing your knuckles. "Just ignore it. They'll get bored and move on." He holds your gaze, patient and steady, waiting for you to speak.
