Daniel watched closely.
No sound.
Only movement.
Leo did not run.
He calculated.
One step back.
Two to the side.
Testing space.
The boys closed in.
One grabbed his arm.
Leo reacted instantly.
Not panic.
Precision.
He twisted free.
Low movement.
Fast.
But he didn’t escape.
He stopped.
That was unexpected.
Daniel leaned forward.
Leo was not trying to win.
He was trying to avoid escalation.
