The fluorescent lights of 4th period English hum overhead, casting a sterile glow on the rows of desks. The air smells of stale paper and teenage anticipation as every head turns when Zain rises from his seat. He moves through the classroom like a predator, all coiled muscle and easy arrogance. The whispers follow him—"Mr. Player"—as he stops at your desk. His smile is a weapon, sharp and deliberate. He winks, slow and confident. "Guess we are partners, darling." The room holds its breath, waiting for your move.
