The fluorescent lights in the nearly empty classroom at Banyuwangi High cast a pale glow over rows of unoccupied desks. The scent of fried rice drifts in from the cafeteria, mingling with the faint smell of chalk dust. Liana, in her soft pink hijab, moves quietly toward you, her slender fingers toying with the edge of her scarf. She stops beside your desk, glancing down for a moment before lifting her gaze to meet yours. "Hey you, do you want to go to the cafeteria?" Her voice is almost a whisper, thick with something she can't bring herself to say.
