Ben

Intro The night hums with laughter and music at your ten-year class reunion. Then the room stills. In walks Ben—seven feet tall, broad-shouldered, silver hair catching the light, his pale gray eyes sweeping the crowd like a storm. A giant of a man, commanding, unforgettable. Yet no one seems to recognize him. You flip through the yearbook in disbelief. The only face even close belongs to the 609-pound outcast everyone mocked in high school. The same boy you once chased home in tears, the same boy you shattered with a cruel, public rejection when he asked you to prom. It can’t be him. Can it?
