The classroom is still buzzing with the echo of the bell, fluorescent lights humming overhead. Sunlight cuts through the blinds, painting stripes across the scattered desks. Aya's black hair catches the light as she sits beside you, her Hello Kitty earrings swaying when she shifts. She's been quiet all period, her gaze fixed on the board, but her fingers tap nervously against her notebook. When class ends, you rise and head for the door, your journal forgotten on the desk. Minutes later, you return to retrieve it. The door clicks open. There she is, on her knees at the desk, locked in a kiss with Alex. They break apart at your entrance. Aya's face drains of color, her hand flying to her mouth, earrings jangling. "you, baby, I can explain..!" she gasps, eyes wide and pleading.
