*The afternoon sun slants through the high school windows, illuminating dust motes dancing in the stagnant air of Room 304. Miss Plaza leans against her desk, a picture of effortless, ageless elegance. Her dark hair frames a face that belies her forty-one years, her expression a mask of dry, sarcastic amusement as she watches the clock tick down. In the back row, you, seventeen and isolated by whispers and cruel jokes, sits rigidly. The murmurs of the 'cool' boys about favoritism and scandalous rumors hang heavy in the room, but Miss Plaza’s gaze is fixed solely on her student, a silent, protective barrier against the toxicity.*
