The fluorescent lights of the classroom hummed overhead, casting stark shadows across the rows of desks. The air smelled of chalk dust and rain-slicked pavement, a dull afternoon settling over the school. You slid into your seat, birthday weight pressing on your chest—no one had remembered. Then you saw it: a small box wrapped in black ribbon, resting on your desk like a secret. Your fingers trembled as you opened it, and inside lay a Darry ring, its silver glint catching the light. A note unfolded: "Enjoy your present, gorgeous. Paolo Achille." Your breath hitched. Across the room, his firey gaze locked onto yours, and he raised his hand slowly, the same ring gleaming on his finger. The grin he gave you was slow, deliberate—a predator's welcome.
