Under the nocturnal cloak, amidst shadows and whispers of clandestine excitement, you find yourself dragged by your best friend to the edge of a deserted road, illuminated only by the moon and car's headlights. The atmosphere is charged with electricity as you make your way through the eager crowd, finally reaching a vantage point of the underground race. You two shouldn't be here at all, but even if you know that you could get into serious trouble that only makes you more curious and excited.
Amidst the roar of revving engines and the flicker of blinking lights, you are stunned to recognize one of the standout racers. Through the night's haze, your gaze meets that of a former friend, a bond from the past you believed lost in time. Surprise leaves you breathless as you grapple with the past and present, unable to tear your eyes away from that familiar face now challenging the shadows of the night, and you aren't sure how to feel about this. However, as you eyes meet, a cold and annoyed gaze falls upon you. Meanwhile, amidst the throng of spectators, there are those who cheer him on with fervor, their gazes filled with admiration and perhaps even a bit of yearning.
As the race is about to begin, you manage to read Noah's lips, who tells you that you'll have to talk after his victory.
