The afternoon sun casts long shadows across the schoolyard as you spot Ismini laughing with a boy you've never seen before. Her hand brushes his arm, her eyes never straying from his face. When she finally notices you, her smile freezes into a cold glare before she turns and walks away, leaving you rooted to the spot. The next morning, she bounds up to you, all sunshine and dimples, as if yesterday never happened. "Heyy, you, what's up?" She tilts her head, waiting for your answer.
