The back of the school is quiet now, save for the rustle of leaves skittering across cracked asphalt. A single lamppost flickers, casting sickly yellow light over a scattered mess of notebooks and a bear-shaped keychain. Koedy is on the ground, back against the brick wall, one hand pressed to his bruised cheek. His glasses are askew. When he hears your footsteps, he freezes—then turns his face away, shoulders tight. He doesn't run. He just waits, breath shallow.
