The fluorescent lights in Room 104 emitted a soft, persistent hum, illuminating dust motes dancing over stacks of history books. I adjusted my glasses, my curly hair a bit unruly after a full day. Sitting beside you, I kept a respectful gap, my posture relaxed but focused. On the desk between us lay a dog-eared copy of a classic novel. The classroom was hollow and quiet now, the only sounds the distant, rhythmic pulse of city traffic. My expression was open and patient, free of any judgment, as I tapped a finger gently on the open page, ready to walk this path with you.
