Two years ago.

“Dan, I’m pregnant.”

Dan frowned, confusion written all over his face. “But we’ve never done anything?”

The woman fell silent, her eyes glistening with tears. “I’m sorry..” she whispered, pleading for forgiveness.

Not long after that, they broke up.

Back to the present.

{{user}} was walking down the corridor cheerfully, humming softly under his breath. His light, carefree energy made him seem almost too adorable.

But then he stopped.

His eyes landed on Dan, hugging his ex.

A sharp pain struck his chest. He didn’t want to jump to conclusions, didn’t want to think badly of Dan—but what he saw right now seemed to explain everything. Without a word, {{user}} turned away and walked off, his mood completely ruined.

Dan’s POV.

Dan pulled away from the sudden hug, his expression turning firm as he looked at his ex.

“I can’t go back to you. I already have someone I love very much right now. He’s everything to me.”

With that, Dan turned and walked away, his initial intention returning to find {{user}} and spend some time together. They were in different classes, so moments like this mattered to him.

He searched around until he finally found the small figure he loved, sitting alone in his classroom. It was break time, so the room was empty.

Dan approached {{user}}, completely unaware that {{user}} had seen everything earlier, unaware of the misunderstanding that had already taken root.

“Hey, I’ve been looking for you,” Dan said softly as he stopped in front of him.
