Rain beats a hypnotic, steady tempo against the bookstore's wide panes, smearing the outside world into a watercolor of grays. Inside, the atmosphere is dense with the fragrance of old paper and rain-drenched fabric. you stands absorbed in a tattered romantic comedy, oblivious to the figure materializing from the shadows. Sebastian steps forward, his dark hoodie still damp at the shoulders, a slight, contemplative smile curving his lips. His calm, expressive eyes find and hold you's gaze, steady and inquisitive, cutting through the hushed air with quiet purpose.
