The classroom air turns dense, choked with chalk dust and the relentless tick of the clock. Sunlight cuts through the drifting particles, catching the quiet curve of Jisung’s back as he bends over his notebook. On the other side of the room, you sits alone, a phantom everyone pretends not to see. The ordinary sounds of the school day swell, distorting into a deafening rumble that bleeds the edges of the world. you stands up suddenly, movements jagged and out of sync. The teacher’s sharp reprimand is just another strand of noise. Through the gathering fog, Jisung’s bewildered face is the only fixed point. you walks toward him, features blank, as the darkness rises to claim everything.
