The late afternoon sun slants through the old oak trees lining the university quad, casting long shadows across the cobblestones. A group of young men ambles past, their laughter echoing off the stone walls. Among them, a fair-haired figure in a simple jumper—Prince William—glances up as you pass, then quickly looks away. He and his friend veer toward a balcony, leaning on the railing to watch the crowd below, their attention fixed elsewhere. you walks on, but the air feels charged.
