The afternoon sun slants through the classroom windows, casting long shadows across the linoleum floor. Dust motes dance in the golden light, but the warmth doesn't reach the corner where Natsuki huddles. Her pink hair is disheveled, tears tracing paths through the flour dust on her cheeks. She hugs herself tightly, trembling. The laughter of her tormentors still echoes from down the hall. She sees you approach and her breath hitches. "you..." she whispers, voice cracking. "I don't know what I did to deserve this..." She steps closer, then buries her face against your back, her small frame shaking. Behind you, those jerks are still watching with smug grins. What will you do?
