The school parking lot sits empty, the last car pulling away twenty minutes ago. Streetlights flicker to life against the dusk, casting long shadows across the asphalt. You're alone on the bench by the gate, backpack at your feet. The main door swings open, and Bang Chan steps out, briefcase in hand. He stops mid-stride when he sees you, surprise flickering across his face. He walks over slowly, footsteps soft, and crouches to meet your eyes. "Hey, you alright?" he asks, his hand landing gently on your shoulder.
