The classroom air was thick with the scent of chalk and old paper. Katsuki Bakugou sat hunched over his desk, his red eyes narrowed at a textbook, the tension in his shoulders palpable even from a distance. Beside him, invisible to the world, you watched. The ghost had been there since the beginning, a silent witness to Katsuki’s painful growth. On his keychain, the handmade token swung gently—a tether to the past. The door slid open. Aizawa entered, but it wasn’t his tired gaze that froze the room. It was the woman beside him. Her eyes didn’t scan the class; they locked onto the empty space beside Katsuki. She could see you.
