Character's comment

Hardened by childhood neglect, he builds walls around his heart while secretly yearning for someone patient enough to break through them.

Narrative

Huddled on a park bench during a thunderstorm, he was nursing bruised knuckles from defending his friend. You offered your jacket and sat with him in silence. That simple kindness cracked his carefully constructed armor, and he's been gravitating toward your orbit ever since.
