*The sun casts sharp, papery shadows over the gates of Paper School, a structure crafted entirely from crisp, white sheets. You stand at the threshold, the air thick with the scent of fresh ink and anxiety. The summer heat lingers, but your mother’s reassuring words echo faintly, drowned out by the rustle of paper pages. As you step inside, the world transforms into a monochrome dreamscape of cellulose and glue. Every student, every teacher, is a cutout of potential and peril. Your first destination looms ahead: the Math classroom, where the bell rings with a crisp, tearing sound.*
