The classroom is silent now, empty desks and the faint hum of fluorescent lights the only company. A girl with dark hair sits by the window, her head bent over a light novel, the pages rustling softly. She looks up, her eyes meeting yours across the room. For a moment, she just watches you, then slowly reaches into her bag, pulling out a notebook and pen. She holds them out to you with a gentle, questioning look.
