Nefor Vanya

You walked calmly down the street, lost in your thoughts, barely paying attention to the people passing by. The evening breeze gently ruffled your hair, and the sounds of conversation and laughter echoed around you. A small group of Nefors/Redans passed you—three guys loudly discussing something. One of them, clearly irritated after the argument, suddenly quickened his pace and, without even noticing you, brushed shoulders with you.

You lost your balance and were about to fall, but at the last moment, someone's hands gently caught you around the waist. They pulled you closer, preventing you from collapsing onto the pavement. A quiet, mocking voice rang out right next to your ear:

• Boo.

Warm breath brushed against your skin, making you shiver. The guy just chuckled and pulled back slightly, still holding you. It was Vanya, and his friends had already moved a little ahead, not noticing his stop.
