[NARRATOR — gentle, warm tone]Morning again. A new day stretches ahead… and somewhere in its shadow, something waits quietly.
Leo's Bedroom — Morning
"AAAHHH! What time is it?!"Leo jolts upright, his eyes jumping between the clock and the calendar.
"10:30… Monday the 20th… WAIT—I have to reach school by 11:35 for my results!"
He throws on his uniform, skips breakfast entirely, and rushes out of the house.
School Office
Teacher: "Leo, you are late. Latecomers receive their results last."
Leo sighs, forcing a smile.Why does this always happen to me? Not even breakfast… perfect.
Nearby Shop
Leo: "One Red Bull and ten-rupee chips, please."Shopkeeper: "₹130."
Leo: "Ah… damn. I forgot my wallet. And my phone is still on ma'am's desk…"
A soft voice speaks from behind him.
Anny: "Uncle, I'll pay for both. Same for me."Shopkeeper: "₹260. Thank you."
Leo (relieved): "Anny! I'll return the money tomorrow—"Anny (smiling): "Don't be silly. Go get your results. I'll wait."
Five Minutes Later
Leo bursts out of the office.
Leo: "Anny! I came first! I actually topped!"Anny (grinning): "Two people topped this year—you and me."
Leo (nervous): "Congratulations. And… um… I wanted to tell you something…"Anny: "I'm listening."
Leo: "Can we… spend some time together? Like… a date?"Anny (mock shock): "Ohhh, a date? Okay, okay… sure."Leo (laughing): "Really?"Anny: "Let's go."
And the day slips by—the aquarium, the park, a small restaurant, the cinema.Just the two of them. Laughing, teasing, sharing quiet secrets.The world shrinks to their moments.
Café — Night
Anny: "You know, Leo… you're the first boy I've seen who loves with his heart, not just words."
Leo: "My little brother once told me something—'Don't waste time chasing love. But if you ever find the real one, be so loyal that even death and hatred are afraid to come near the people you love.'And Anny… I'm sorry about your aunt."
Anny: "It's okay. And your brother… he's right.By the way, there's a party this Friday. You should come."
Leo: "Done. But it's already 9 p.m. I should go home."
Anny steps forward and pulls him close.A silent moment stretches.
Anny (whispering): "They say… after the first kiss, love starts to fade."Leo (softly): "But you told me I'm different.Thank you… for tonight."
At Home — Family Sitting Together
Mom: "So… who is the girl? Can I accept her as your girlfriend?"Dad: "First kiss? Well done, son."Sister: "Does she have Instagram?"Leo: "Uh… I proposed. She said yes."
Mom: "Just don't hurt her."Dad: "Exactly."Sister: "What's her name?"Leo: "Anny."Grandpa: "Good."
Leo's thoughts:How do they already know everything? And why are they all so calm about it?
He calls Anny.
Leo: "Anny, my family already accepted you. They said the same things."Anny: "Really? Okay… good night."Leo: "Good night."
He looks up at the sky.Something feels… wrong.
Friday — Outside the School
Anny: "Leo! Why didn't you come to the party?"
Leo (quietly): "My aunt passed away. And… I don't know… something feels off.The sky feels strange. People are dying too quickly."
Anny (gently): "Leo… you've been watching too many movies. I'm sorry about your aunt."Leo: "Thanks. Good night."Anny: "Good night."
[NARRATOR — cold, distant]Leo forced himself to believe her.That the uneasiness meant nothing.
But it wasn't nothing.It was coming.And it was coming fast.
Be ready.
[NARRATOR]A beautiful morning.New technology. New advancements.And yet… the same old human heart.
Leo's Bedroom — Early Morning
Leo: "What's the date… ah—Sunday. Okay… five more minutes."
His phone suddenly rings.
Leo: "Huh? Who's calling this early—Anny? What happened?!"
On the Call
Leo: "Hello? What's wrong?"Nanny: "Are you Leo? I'm Nanny—Anny's middle sister."Leo: "Yes. Is Anny okay?"Nanny: "She asked me to call you. She's at the school park. She wants you to come."Leo: "Okay. I'm on my way."
The Park — 4 a.m.
The air is cold.Dawn creeps along the horizon.
Leo runs, hoodie pulled tight, heart pounding.
Leo: "Anny? Your sister said you wanted to see me."
Anny (soft, trembling): "Yes… Leo. My family is shifting from Earth-12 to Earth-8.I'm changing schools too."
Leo (shocked): "What? Can't you stay… at least for two more years?"
Anny (lowering her head): "No. Rules… political restrictions.We won't be able to call. Or message."
She turns and runs before he can stop her.
Leo stands frozen, the cold morning matching the emptiness in his chest.
Back Home — Later
Leo sits at his PC, forcing himself to play games.Hours pass. He stops.
The sky outside feels wrong.Something is coming…
[NARRATOR]Leo senses it.A storm is forming.But he does not yet know its name.
Two Years Later
Leo, now sixteen, lives quietly with his sister on Earth-10.
Mom: "Leo, what are you doing? Have you cleaned the house?"Leo: "Yes, Mom. All done. How are you all?"Mom: "We're fine. How's school?"Leo: "Good. I'll call tonight."Mom: "Okay. Take care."
After hours of chores, Leo collapses into a chair.His eyes drift towards the old PC—his grandfather's.
Leo: "We'll be selling this in two years anyway… let's see what's inside."
Photos load.His grandfather.A woman he does not recognise.
A folder: Brian Shadekai & Sofia Caro.
Inside—photos of his father, his aunt… and the same mysterious woman.
Leo (whispering): "Who… is she?"
His phone vibrates.
Anny:I'm on Earth-10. I heard you're here too.Can we meet? The place where we first went together.I'll wait at six.
6:15 p.m. — The Hill Park
The city glows below.The sky is painted in warm colours, the breeze carrying the scent of flowers.
Anny: "I thought you weren't coming."Leo: "Sorry, I got stuck… I brought your favourite—four-in-one cone. Catberry flavour."Anny (smiling): "You're too sweet. I love you."
Leo smiles—but his heart feels heavy.
Anny: "You're worried, aren't you?"Leo (forcing a smile): "No—"Anny: "Don't lie to me, baby."
Leo shows her the photo folder.
Anny's expression changes.
Anny: "…She's my aunt."Leo: "What?"
[NARRATOR]Can Leo accept the truth?Will it make him stronger… or break him?
The storm he sensed long ago—has finally begun to move.
