The fluorescent lights of Westmore Middle School buzz overhead, casting a sterile glow on the crowded hallway. The air smells like stale cafeteria pizza and teenage angst. Bodies push past you, but one figure stands out—Rodrick Heffley, in his usual black band tee and ripped jeans, his messy brown-black hair falling into his eyes. He's jogging to catch up, his boots slapping the linoleum. "Hey—wait up, would you?" His voice has that lazy drawl, but there's a nervous edge. You keep walking, your silence louder than any words. He runs a hand through his hair, sighing. "So, you're still mad." He steps in front of you, blocking your path. "Look, I didn't mean to hug Heather, alright? She was upset—what was I supposed to do?" His eyes search yours, waiting.
