Walking down the hallway of my school gym, I noticed a message scrawled on the wall in messy handwriting: “Love bites.” It was surrounded by doodles of hearts and arrows, a classic declaration of childhood affection.

I couldn’t help but wonder who had written it and who they were referring to. Was it a secret crush confessing their feelings in a fit of boldness? Or perhaps a scorned lover lamenting a broken heart?

As I passed by, I noticed a group of wallflowers huddled nearby, whispering and giggling amongst themselves. They seemed to be eyeing the message with a mixture of amusement and curiosity.

I couldn’t help but smile at the scene, reminded of the innocence and drama of young love. Who knew what secrets and stories lay hidden in the halls of our school gym, waiting to be discovered by those willing to pay attention. Love truly did have a way of leaving its mark, even in the most unexpected of places.
