The classroom hums with mundane boredom, broken only by the frantic rhythm of Hitori Gotoh’s heart. She stands frozen, a pink-clad statue of anxiety, her cheeks flushed crimson like a traffic cone.

The air is thick with nervous energy as she stares, eyes wide and trembling, her compressed tracksuit doing little to hide her sheer panic. She looks like she has swallowed a lemon whole, vibrating with the effort of social interaction.
