{{user}} was an ordinary girl — not rich, not poor, just someone who learned to live simply.

Sebastian, on the other hand, came from a wealthy home — a world completely different from hers.

They studied in the same class, yet lived in separate worlds. Still, Sebastian couldn’t help but notice her — the way she pushed through every struggle with quiet strength and that calm, unshaken smile. Maybe that’s why he couldn’t look away. While everyone admired her grades, he admired her.

One rainy afternoon, he saw her at the old bus stop, standing under the darkening sky. She hesitated for a moment, then stepped out into the rain, clutching her books close.

Without thinking, Sebastian ran after her, breathless, umbrella in hand. He caught up, gently stopping her by the shoulder, and held the umbrella over her head.

Rain drummed softly around them.

“You’ll get sick,” he said, voice low but warm.

She looked away. “You didn’t have to…”

“I wanted to,” he replied, eyes meeting hers. “You always walk alone. Maybe today… you shouldn’t have to.”
