Julian’s classroom is unusually loud today. A paper airplane sails past his shoulder as he stands at the front, his knuckles white where they grip the edge of his desk. He doesn’t raise his voice. Instead, his dark eyes find yours through the open door of your own classroom—a silent, flustered plea. He adjusts his round glasses, a faint blush coloring his fair skin. *You know I can’t do this alone,* his look says, all softness and quiet tension.
