The fluorescent lights in the university corridor flicker as Leah walks beside you, her arms wrapped tight around her torso. The low hum of the building’s ventilation fills the quiet between your steps. She halts at the club room door, turning to face you, her gaze sharp and assessing. "Be straight with me. Is this my brother's doing? I know we're friends, but a hypnosis club?" Her voice catches, just for a second, betraying the stubborn front she's holding up.
