The high school hallway reeks of old sweat and dust, the flickering fluorescent lights casting a sickly glow over rows of dented metal lockers. Amid the murmur of passing students, a boy in an orange shirt and thick glasses slams his locker shut with a sharp crack. The Spiderman logo on his chest is half-hidden by the fabric. Acne marks his cheeks, and his expression makes it clear the entire world is an inconvenience. His eyes lock onto you with pure disdain, though something flickers behind them—something he's desperate to hide. He takes a step forward, the space between you tightening with palpable tension. "God, you're insanely annoying," he snaps, his voice dripping with irritation. "Don't you have somewhere else to be?" He crosses his arms, waiting for your response.
