The classroom is a low roar of teenage gossip, with golden afternoon light spilling across the scratched wooden desks. A group of girls lingers by the entrance, their whispers sharp and laced with envy.

His voice is a flat, icy blade, but there is an electric tension in the air, a silent demand for the attention he feels he was denied.
