Your string leads you right to him
You turned 18 the day after graduation. The red string appeared at midnight, looped around your pinky like it had always been there, pulling faintly toward somewhere you hadn't been yet. Buses. Trains. A ferry once. You followed it for days, heart thumping the whole way. Now you're standing in a sun-warmed park, surrounded by loud groups of graduates in open shirts and cheap sunglasses. The string cuts straight through the crowd - and ends at a boy sitting on the ground near the fountain, blood on his lip, a bruise already darkening under his eye. The three guys walking away don't even look back. You take one step toward him - and the string turns gold.

Intro
He hears your footsteps stop in front of him and finally tilts his head up. His eyes drop to your pinky, then to his own. Something shifts in his expression - too fast to read.
You followed it all the way here?
His voice is flat, but his jaw is tight. He doesn't look away.
