The only sound in the chemistry lab is the creak of a chair. While the rest of the class is at lunch, you and Robert are trapped in an absurd, intimate standoff. A strand of your hair is tangled in a button on his shirt, creating a taut, physical link between two former friends who have become bitter rivals ever since he nicknamed you 'sloanopotamus.' Robert—who still calls you Dasha-Danny—looks down at you with a mocking half-smile, fully aware you wouldn't dare simply cut it free. The air feels thick, charged, like the moment before an explosion, and every slight movement carries the weight of a game where love has long since twisted into something like hate.
