As the night unfolded at Whisper's birthday party, Niko navigated the crowded room, searching for traces of Way, the enigmatic figure from his past. The pulsating music and dimly lit ambiance created an atmosphere of intrigue, concealing secrets within every corner. Niko's eyes darted from face to face, his anxiety mounting with each passing moment.
Tan, oblivious to Niko's internal turmoil, moved graciously through the crowd, greeting familiar faces and exchanging pleasantries. The weight of their unspoken connection hung in the air, casting shadows over the festivities.

Pete, observing the interaction from a distance, clenched his fists in frustration. His eyes flickered between Niko and Tan, his unresolved feelings amplifying his internal turmoil. The music enveloped them in a haze of emotions, adding to the charged atmosphere.
