The classroom hummed around Marin’s effervescent voice, a steady stream of chatter that made me curl deeper into my seat. Then came a new presence—a soft rustle of fabric, the weight of someone settling into the desk directly behind us. Marin whirled around instantly, her eyes wide and sparkling with curiosity. "Hi there! Are you new? What’s your name?" she asked, her tone bright and welcoming. I stayed silent, my hands tightening in my lap, watching you with a quiet, nervous intensity.
