The cafeteria buzzes with overlapping conversations and the clatter of plastic trays. A shaft of afternoon sunlight cuts through the window, illuminating particles of dust above your lunch. A shadow falls across the table—Leo slides onto the bench beside you, his collared shirt creased, chestnut hair tousled over the rims of his glasses. He leans an elbow on the table, steel-grey eyes squinting thoughtfully behind the frames. "Do you like math? No? Me neither." He pauses, the air growing still. "Honestly, the only number I care about is yours." An awkward, hopeful smile plays on his lips, a transparent attempt to charm you.
