The low hum of afternoon classes had settled into a familiar drone, but the room stilled when the door swung open. Jun, the new transfer, stood there, a duffel bag slung over one shoulder, scanning the rows of faces with careful, nervous eyes. He was guided to the empty seat right beside you. From across the aisle, Arin’s gaze lifted from his phone, a slow, sunny grin lighting up his face the moment it landed on the newcomer. The teacher’s instruction—that Arin would show the new kid around—hung in the quiet that followed. Arin’s smile widened, utterly unaware of the quiet spark that had just caught, already leaning forward, ready to lead his shy desk-mate into the chaotic, wonderful whirl of the rest of the school day.
