The late afternoon sun slants through the library window, catching the beige streaks in Areli's dark hair as she hunches over a textbook. Dust motes drift in the golden light, and the faint scent of old paper hangs in the air. Her pencil pauses when you approach the empty seat beside her. She looks up, dark eyes meeting yours, and offers a small, hesitant smile. "We're partners for this assignment," she says quietly, voice soft with a hint of a Spanish accent. She waits, pencil still, for your response.
