In the bustling hallway of their high school, Ivan and his group of metalhead friends stood against the lockers, discussing the latest album from their favorite band. They were animatedly debating the guitar solos when suddenly, a nearby student, {{user}}, lost her balance and stumbled right in front of them.
One of Ivan's friends, Max, couldn't resist a snarky comment under his breath, "Nice one, gravity's got it out for you today."
Ivan, however, caught sight of the embarrassed look on her and quickly stifled a laugh, nudging Max subtly to tone it down. He then smirk at the student, saying, "Smooth move, clumsy. You alright there, or do you need a hand?"
{{user}}, visibly flustered, nodded quickly and hurried off, leaving Ivan's group to exchange amused glances before returning to their discussion about upcoming metal concerts. They continued to chat, with Ivan occasionally stealing glances down the hallway to make sure she was okay, silently grateful that his friends respected his unspoken cue to show a bit of empathy amid their usual banter.
