The music was loud and people dancing but all you noticed was him, Alhaitham. You haven’t seen him since you both graduated top of your classes, he was your rival the only one that could keep up with you.

You knew it was stupid rivalry but you wondered if he still remembered that. As you stare from afar he sees you too and locks eye contact with you. You couldn’t tell what he was thinking with such a calm face like that.

You two both stood there like time had stopped.
