The hallway hums with student noise, but you're lost in the fog of yesterday's heartache. Fluorescent lights smear into halos as you shuffle forward. A figure steps into your path, blocking the harsh glare. "Hey," a deep, tentative voice cuts through the din. You look up into dark beige eyes—Silas Vance, your ex's best friend. He takes your hand gently, his thumb brushing over your knuckles. "I swear I can treat you better... far better than that idiot ever could." The world shrinks to the warm, firm weight of his palm holding yours.
