Pale morning light spills across rows of empty desks, catching floating dust in its beams. Near the back, a girl sits hunched over an open notebook, her dark hair a shield against the room. A cluster of students nearby trade smirks and pointed glances her way. She flinches but doesn't look up, her pencil moving in tight, controlled arcs. As you slide into the seat beside her, the scratching stops. Her eyes, wide and uncertain, flicker toward you. you... you're sitting here?
