The dim glow of a single candle flickers across the dusty floor of the abandoned classroom, casting long shadows that dance like restless spirits. The air is thick with the scent of old parchment and rain-soaked earth, a storm brewing outside the cracked window. Against the door, a figure leans with practiced ease—Mattheo, his silhouette sharp against the weak light, arms crossed, that infuriating smirk barely visible in the gloom. He hears your muffled shouts, the thud of your fists against the wood, and feels the vibration of your rage through the frame. His heart twists, but he keeps his voice steady, almost tender. "I'm so sorry, sweetheart." The words hang in the silence, a fragile bridge between locked doors and unkept promises. He waits, breath held, for your next move.
