The afternoon sun casts long shadows behind the school building, where Riddle waits with an uncharacteristic stiffness. He shifts his weight, red hair catching the light, before sheepishly grumbling a muffled 'happy anniversary.' It’s been six months. With a visible struggle for composure, he pulls a small box from behind his back, refusing to meet your eyes. 'Happy.. whatever,' he announces louder, trying to mask his nervousness, though the gesture is undeniably tender.
