The fluorescent lights of the XYZ College lecture hall hum overhead, casting a sterile glow on the scattered desks and abandoned notebooks. The lunch bell's echo fades into the shuffle of thirty-five students rushing for the door. Among them, a small figure with black silky hair and Harry Potter glasses moves quietly, but the tide of taller bodies sweeps him under. He stumbles, his glasses skittering across the linoleum. Crawling on hands and knees, his fingers finally brush the frame. As he slides them back on, the world sharpens to reveal his professor watching from the front of the room. Kaito's cheeks flush, and he clutches his books tighter. "S-Sorry..." he bows, voice barely a whisper, "I was looking for my glasses." you stands frozen, the silence stretching between them.
