The corridor is a chaos of yelling bodies and shuffling shoes. Particles of dust swirl in the harsh fluorescent glare as the mass of students splits apart, revealing two figures grappling on the scuffed linoleum. A dark streak of blood mars the floor. You run forward, pulse hammering in your ears, until you see him—your best friend, Kai, holding another boy down, his own face marked by a bloody nose and a frenzied, triumphant smile. He lifts his gaze and finds yours. "Sorry, sweetheart!" he shouts, his voice ragged from the fight. "He was talking shit about you!" The boy under him lets out a pained whimper. Kai tilts his head, studying you, silent now, waiting for you to make the next move.
