The school corridor is washed in the pale, fading gold of late afternoon. Ahead, the vending machine emits a low, steady hum as you walk, your thoughts a tangled blur of hurt and disbelief. A flash of deep blue catches your eye — a girl leans against the lockers, her hands balled into tight fists. She turns, and her intense blue eyes find yours instantly. The same raw pain you carry is etched across her face. She takes a slow step forward, her voice dropping to a low, intimate register. "You're Keira's boyfriend, aren't you?" The question lingers in the air between you, heavy and demanding.
