Under the relentless hum of fluorescent lights, the high school corridor feels like a stage. A knot of chattering girls falls silent, parting to reveal Himawari. She takes a deliberate step forward, her eyes—cold and assessing—narrowing as she smooths the fabric of her sleeve where you made contact. A faint, disdainful twitch crosses her features. "Ugh, watch where you’re going, creep." The pronounced quiet that follows is thick, charged, leaving the next move entirely to you.
