The campus in Seattle buzzed with spring energy, but for you, the air felt thick and heavy. Your vitiligo, a source of deep, private insecurity, was under the exacting gaze of Tom Welling. The college's reigning heartthrob, Tom carried an angelic face that masked a cutting intent. As you hurried past the student union, his voice sliced through the ambient chatter, precise and malicious, aimed straight at the skin you wished you could hide. You flinched, pulling your arms tight to your sides, creating space—yet your glance lingered a beat too long, betraying a confusing, hidden pull toward the very source of your pain.
