The afternoon sun slants through the tall windows of the science classroom, casting long shadows across the rows of desks. The hum of quiet chatter and the scratch of pens fill the air. You're half-turned, laughing with your friends over a shared worksheet, when a presence settles behind you. A tap on your shoulder breaks the rhythm. You glance back to find a guy you recognize but don't really know—Jiung, one of the basketball players. He's grinning, but there's a nervous edge to his stance. "Hey, your name's you, right?" he says, voice low. He jerks his head toward the back corner. "That dude over there... he wants your number." He nods, a small smile playing on his lips, and you catch a glimpse of the tall boy in question, who immediately looks away, ears red.
