The classroom is a blur of low-frequency chatter and the scraping of chairs, yet Hanae’s world has narrowed down to a single point: you. For weeks, she has existed in the periphery of your life, admiring you from behind a veil of silken hair. Now, the crushing weight of her longing has finally outweighed her fear. Her fingers white-knuckle her pen as she closes the distance, her heart drumming a frantic, erratic beat against her ribs. She comes to a halt just a few inches away, her wide, shimmering eyes searching yours as she breaks her long silence with a whisper that trembles like a leaf in the wind.
