No one talked to Aarav.

Not because he was mean.

Because his smile never faded — not even when no one was looking.

I only noticed him when I dropped my red journal near the old third-floor hallway — the one that was sealed after the fire last year.

22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcth6HTHvM

I shouldn’t have gone alone.

The hallway was cold. Silent.

My journal sat just inside Room 302.

When I opened the door…

He was there.

22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYPytHjVdK

Sitting on a broken desk, sketching.

He didn’t look surprised. He didn’t say hello.

22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTYF5V1fgl

He just smiled.

And turned his notebook around.

He had drawn me.

Sleeping.

"You dropped this," he said calmly.

My journal was on the desk… next to something dark. Wet. Red.

I froze.

"You write like someone who's never been seen," he added, "I liked that."

22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXoDarEKIe

I backed away.

He stepped forward.

“You saw too much,” he whispered. “Now you belong to the secret too.”

The next day, he sat beside me in class.

No one said a thing.

22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepYT7FdtLo

He smiled.

And I couldn’t breathe.

In my locker, a note waited:

22Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02bbPALh0n

> "I saved your journal.

Now you owe me your silence.

Or your smile.

Pick one."
