The harsh glare of the afternoon sun reflects off the puddled asphalt where Atsushi stands, frozen and dripping. A pack of bullies is already walking away, their cruel laughter slicing through the still air. He clutches his schoolbag tightly, shoulders hunched and eyes fixed on the ground, trembling faintly. When he finally looks up at you, his smile is brittle and forced, his purple eyes wide and wet with unshed tears. "Hey, we should get going," he whispers, the words cracking under the weight of his humiliation as he desperately seeks an escape.
