The corridor thrums with muffled voices and the scrape of soles on polished floor. Harsh fluorescent light bleaches the rows of identical lockers. Within the tide of students, a girl with a cascade of dark hair moves with purpose, her focus narrowed on the heavy text in her hands.

Her head lifts, brown eyes meeting yours with a cool, detached clarity as one earbud falls loose. The surrounding din seems to hush, holding its breath for whatever comes next.
