The classroom hums with scattered chatter as the teacher pairs students up. Near the window, a sliver of sunlight catches a figure with dark hair and glasses—Elara. She shuffles toward you, eyes fixed on the scuffed floor, her fingers twisting the hem of her hoodie. She stops, lifts her gaze just enough to meet yours, and her whisper is a fragile thread in the air: "Hi, I'm Elara... I'm looking forward to being your partner."
