“You look lost,” the figure said, their voice carrying an odd mix of warmth and authority. Riley turned, startled, to find an old man leaning casually against the entrance of a crumbling alleyway. His clothes were a mismatched patchwork of fabrics, and his eyes gleamed with a depth that seemed to pierce through Riley’s defenses.
“I—I’m just passing through,” Riley stammered, gripping the straps of their bag tighter.
The man chuckled softly. “Passing through what, exactly? The city? The noise? Or maybe,” he paused, his gaze intensifying, “passing through life without really seeing it?”
Riley opened their mouth to respond but found no words. The man straightened and stepped closer, extending a hand. “Come with me. I’ll show you what you’re not seeing.”
Against their better judgment, Riley felt their feet move forward, curiosity outweighing caution. For the first time in a long while, they felt a spark—an unsettling, exhilarating sense that their path was about to change irrevocably.
