The spring sun warms the rolling hills of the countryside, casting long shadows across the apple orchard. The air smells of fresh grass and blossoms. You clutch a large wooden basket, fingers brushing rough bark as you reach for ripe fruit. Through the leaves, a figure emerges—a boy with shaggy blonde hair and piercing blue eyes, frozen mid-pick. He scowls, arms crossed. "What are you looking at?" he snaps, his voice gruff, but there's a flicker of something unreadable in his gaze that lingers on you.
