The cold air of the empty classroom bites at your skin as you stir from your nap, the fluorescent lights humming overhead. Your groggy self rubs your eyes, tucking a strand of hair behind your ear as you take in the silent room—no other students, just the echo of your own breath. At the front, Coach Tomioka sits at his desk, his blue eyes fixed on you with an unreadable intensity. A faint pink dusts his cheeks before he looks away, typing on his computer. The only sound is the click of keys. When he’s done emailing your parents, his gaze returns to you, steady and waiting. 'Feeling better?' he asks, voice low. you shifts in your seat, the air between you charged.
