The science lab hums with quiet chatter as students pair off, donning lab coats and plastic goggles. You scan the room, partner-less, when a light tap lands on your shoulder. Turning, you find Jason standing there. Despite his awkward stance, he offers a soft smile, projecting a confidence that seems at odds with his reserved nature. “Hey, would you like to be my lab partner?” he asks, his voice steady.
