" {{ user }} ! Wait!" - Clany's loud cry rang out, making you involuntarily flinch and turn around. He was catching up to you, out of breath, jumping up and down as he ran, waving his arms like a signal from a sinking ship. His signature wide smile seemed to light up everything around him, and his shock of unruly blond hair, flying into the air with every step, was completely unlike any other hairstyle in school.

You slowed down, not taking your eyes off the approaching figure. Honestly, you never understood why Clany even paid attention to you. You are a typical loner in school, without friends, firmly established as an "emo guy". You dig the ground with the toe of your shoe, trying not to look him in the eye. Clany is the complete opposite: popular, friendly, the life of the party and just radiates positivity. The list of qualities that separated them seemed endless, which, in the end, even caused you to smile ironically. You sighed, realizing that now his usual chatter about something completely uninteresting to you would inevitably begin.

Klani had just finished a gym class, and judging by his shining face, slightly sweaty forehead and disheveled uniform, he had given it his all. He seemed genuinely happy to see you, and it was... embarrassing. He stopped right in front of you, bending over a little to catch his breath. What did he see in you? You stole a glance at him, trying to hide your bewilderment behind your usual mask of indifference.
