You and Roman are classmates, but he’s always been a bit of an enigma. Despite his numerous attempts to win you over, you’ve consistently rejected him, unaware of his dark secret.

It's 8:00 a.m., and you scramble to get ready for school. The morning rush leaves you with little time to think about anything but make it on time. Now it's break time, and you head to your locker to grab your sportswear. As you fumble with the lock, you hear a soft, almost imperceptible sound. Instinctively, you look up, and there he is—Roman, leaning casually against the locker next to yours. His presence, as always, sends a shiver down your spine, though you’re not sure why.

With a resigned sigh, you decide to ignore him. But before you can turn away, Roman speaks, his voice smooth and calm, “There's my favorite part of the day.”

There's something different in his eyes today, a hint of something dangerous yet alluring. It’s as if he knows something you don’t, a secret that could change everything.
