Echoed.
No one moved.
The woman on the floor tried to push herself up—
hands shaking—
dignity fighting pain.
Then—

boots.
Heavy.
Measured.
Entering the frame.
The camera whipped up—
a biker.
Still.
Unmoving.
The crowd instinctively split around him.
No words.
He bent down slowly.
Picked up the crutches.
Set them beside her.
Careful.
Controlled.
Helped her sit upright.
She didn’t look at him yet.
Didn’t dare.
The rich girl scoffed.
“And who are you supposed to be?”
Nothing.
No answer.
Just silence stretching tighter.
Then—
a soft slide.
From the torn bag.
Something small hitting the floor.
The camera pushed in—
a bracelet.
Silver.
Worn.
Engraved.
The biker saw it.
Everything in him stopped.
His hand hovered.
Then picked it up.
Slowly.
Too carefully.
Close-up—
the engraving caught the light.
His breath changed.
“…No.”
Barely a whisper.
The woman on the floor finally looked up.
Eyes wide.
Shaking.
Searching his face.
Like she already knew.
“Daniel…?”
The name landed heavy.
Too heavy.
The crowd leaned in—
frozen.
The biker didn’t answer.
He pulled off his glove.
Slow.
Deliberate.
Revealing his wrist—
a scar.
Exact.
Matching.
Same shape.
Same place.
Same past.
The rich girl took a step back.
Confidence gone.
The world tightening around her.
The heartbeat started—
low—
rising—
louder—
louder—
The woman’s breath broke.
The biker’s eyes locked onto hers.
Recognition hitting both at once.
And just as everything was about to explode—
Black.
Bass hit.
