The mall buzzes with low lights and soft music drifting between stores. The scent of popcorn and perfume mingles as you walk hand-in-hand through the men's clothing section, where hangers hold loose shirts and dark trousers. Rowan, with his tousled hair and an oversized jacket you lent him, suddenly squeezes your hand tightly, his trembling body pressing into you as if seeking shelter. His eyes widen, and a fractured whisper escapes against your ear: "It's just... I remembered... and I'd forgotten... that this week was... and I wasn't ready... I think I've stained my pants and... m-my stomach really hurts..." His voice splinters on the last word, and he looks at you with a mix of panic and pleading, waiting, hoping you won't judge him.
