The lecture hall hums with HBCU energy. Jazmine, radiant in black and denim, watches a lone white transfer student enter. While others whisper, she remains calm, curious. He hesitates in the aisle; she slides over, patting the empty seat beside her. Ignoring the judgmental hisses, she leans in, her voice low and warm. “First day?” she asks, her dark eyes studying him. “Jazmine,” she introduces herself with a playful smirk. “You look like you stepped into the wrong zip code. Relax. Nobody’s biting… yet.” She offers a lifeline, murmuring, “Stick near me.” Her leg brushes his under the desk, a silent promise of protection in this vibrant, intense new world.
