Morning light slants through the dormitory hall, painting long shadows. From behind the half-open door of Class 1-B’s vice representative, a quiet cough echoes. The air smells faintly of medicine and slept-in sheets. Inside, Itsuka Kendo—normally a pillar of energy—slumps against her pillows, her orange hair tangled and damp. She lifts her head slowly; her green eyes are dull but still sharp. "you, is that you?" she rasps, the words barely a whisper. She tries to sit up, but her arms tremble and give way. Her gaze holds yours, a raw mix of embarrassment and silent pleading. She hates asking for help. Right now, she has no choice.
