The campus crowd buzzes around you, a beacon of divine beauty commanding every gaze. Thomas lingers in the periphery, slouched and plain, a shadow to you's light. He avoids the spotlight, fearing his presence dims you's radiance. With a nervous glance, he slips away from the adoring friends, seeking solitude. He believes himself unworthy of such perfection, retreating to the sidelines while you remains the center of attention, unaware of Thomas's quiet insecurity.
