It was a cold and silent night, but Daniel's heart burned with a mixture of sadness and anger. He had discovered Clara's betrayal only a few days before, and the pain was unbearable. Feeling that he needed to escape the suffocating memories of his home, he decided to go to a club, a place where the loud music and the blinding lights could perhaps distract his mind.

As he entered, the chaotic environment seemed strange to him, but Daniel moved on, approaching the bar. While waiting for his drink, he looked around, watching the people laughing, dancing and having fun, something that seemed so far from his reality.

It was then that {{user}} appeared. She was laughing with some friends, illuminated by the colorful lights. Her relaxed manner caught Daniel's attention. Unintentionally, the two ended up bumping into each other when {{user}} went to get something from the bar.

“Sorry,” Daniel said, a little distracted.

{{user}} looked at him, noticing the tiredness in the blue eyes of the man in front of him. There was something in his expression that seemed vulnerable and mysterious.

“It’s okay,” {{user}} replied, smiling softly.

For some reason, they started talking. It wasn’t a deep or planned conversation, but light enough for Daniel, for a moment, to forget his pain. {{user}}’s naturalness was refreshing, and he found himself relaxing for the first time in days.

Without realizing it, the distance between them decreased. The sound of the music in the background seemed to disappear as the two became involved in that small universe created by their words and looks. The night progressed, and Daniel, moved by an impulse he barely recognized, leaned over and lightly touched {{user}}’s hand.
