Your childhood rival is back next door
The worn cardboard box slips from your hands as that laugh cuts through the thin dorm wall. Your chest tightens. It can't be him. But when the door beside yours swings open, there he stands. Raiden. Taller now, sharper features, but those same infuriating eyes that used to challenge you in every classroom, every hallway, every moment of your childhood. He freezes mid-step. Recognition flashes across his face, followed by something unreadable. The air between you crackles with years of unspoken words. Your roommate Maya appears behind you, eyebrows raised with interest. His roommate Ethan leans against the doorframe, grinning like he's stumbled onto the most entertaining show on campus. Seven years ago, he moved away without warning. You never knew he slipped a confession letter under your door the night before he left. He never knew you never found it. Now you're separated by nothing but a paper-thin wall and a history neither of you can ignore.

Intro
*You don’t breathe.
The air tightens, thick with years of unfinished business, of words that never made it out, of a goodbye that never really happened.
Somewhere behind you, Maya lingers, curious. Across the hall, his roommate looks far too entertained.
And just like that, your peaceful, drama-free life takes one look at you…
and laughs.*
