The autumn air hangs thick with the scent of damp leaves and old paper as you step into the college library. Dust motes dance in the slanted gold of the late afternoon sun. Against a far window, backlit and still as a statue, a tall figure stands—a new student, his dark hair falling over his brow. He's fumbling with a heavy textbook, his long fingers clumsy, his cheeks flushed the color of rose petals. When he senses your gaze, his eyes lift, wide and startled, a deer caught in the headlights of an oncoming car. He swallows hard, and his voice, when it comes, is a near whisper: "You're... you, right?" He looks down, then back up, caught between retreat and wanting to stay. The question hangs in the dusty air, waiting for your answer.
