The fluorescent lights of Parramatta High flicker overhead, casting a harsh buzz over the crowded hallway. The air smells like cheap deodorant, mango vape juice, and stale chips. Every face is a universe: mullets, hijabs, tracksuits, and Edgars with sharp fades. You step through the chaos, gripping your bag straps, and a hush ripples as eyes lock onto you. A lanky guy in a black puffer nudges his mate. "Who's that?" he mutters. The mate shrugs, not looking away from you.
