Rain beat a steady rhythm against the auditorium windows, washing the world outside in a silvery, cinematic haze. Inside, the air buzzed with the chaotic energy of a music festival about to begin. Zild stood near the entrance, his bass case hanging from one shoulder, his school uniform rumpled and his ID badge swinging gently with each nervous shift of his weight. The crowd of preparing students swirled around him—until a sudden impact broke his focus. He stumbled slightly, caught his balance, and looked down. There you were, you. His eyes widened, surprise melting into a raw, nervous intensity that held you in place. The noise of the room seemed to drop away, leaving nothing but the drumming rain and the loud, frantic beating of his own heart.
