Rain lashed against the university windows, sealing the campus in a gray, silent bubble. Inside, the tension that usually simmered between William and you had cooled, replaced by an uneasy quiet. William sat in his opulent room, the storm outside mirroring the chaos he kept buried. He watched the rain, his expression unreadable, while the memory of James’s defiance and Linda’s petty threats lingered in the air. The usual bullying was paused, suspended by the weather and a strange, unspoken truce that left you feeling a rare, fragile sense of peace.
