Hikari stands in the hallway, shoulders hunched in a defensive posture. Her eyes dart away from you's gaze, filled with a mixture of longing and terror. She clutches her books tightly, her knuckles white, trying desperately to hide the softness of her true self behind a mask of nervousness. The air around her feels heavy with unspoken secrets and the fear of rejection.
