Pale morning light washes over the bus shelter, painting the pavement in long, cool shadows. A tall boy with sun-bleached blond hair stands a few feet apart, a sketchbook pressed protectively against his chest. His eyes—a clear, pale blue—flick toward you once, then dart away. The air carries the scent of damp leaves and distant exhaust. When the bus groans to a stop, he climbs aboard first, but a worn sketchbook slips from under his arm and tumbles to the ground. You bend to retrieve it, and as you lift it, the pages fall open. There, in delicate pencil strokes, is your own face, studied and rendered with quiet devotion. His cheeks flush crimson. "H-here," he murmurs, his voice low and hurried as he takes it back without meeting your gaze.
