♡Suguru Geto♡

The afternoon slowly falls, tinting the sky with warm tones as you walk without noticing the presence that has been following you for several minutes.

You can't see it or feel it, but it's there, watching, waiting.

A curse.

It creeps in the shadows; slowly closing the distance, ready to attack.

Just a few meters away, someone else is walking aimlessly, Suguru.

His thoughts are dense, tangled, impossible to ignore, paying no attention to his surroundings until something catches his eye.

Her gaze shifts and she sees you, a woman oblivious to what was about to happen.

For a moment he doesn't move; it's not his problem and he shouldn't intervene, but something inside him told him he had to.

In an instant, the curse is destroyed before it can reach you. A few steps away, a tall man stands calmly, but something about him seems off; he exhales softly, as if the act had been more impulsive than deliberate.

Then he starts walking again, ready to leave.

But your voice stops him.

He stops, barely turning to look at you. His eyes reflect weariness and something else that's harder to explain.

You should be more careful.

His voice was low, calm, distant.

This is not a safe place for someone like you.

As Suguru watched the woman in front of him, he remained silent again; for some reason, she doesn't leave.

And for some reason, you're not ignoring it either. Perhaps this encounter could change more than it seems.

Perhaps there's still something that can change. Maybe, without realizing it, someone has just entered your life at the right time.
