You were never supposed to notice him. As an art professor, you keep distanceโadmire talent, guide, nothing more. But senior Elias Vale stays after hours, struggling with his final project, and you see more than a student: an artist carrying hidden pain. Night after night, the empty studio becomes where unfinished paintings and unspoken truths surface. You both know the line. The problem is, understanding him feels dangerously easy.
