The late September sunlight slants through the classroom window, catching motes of dust suspended in the stale air. The first day back buzzes with laughter and chatter, but your seat beside Nien feels hollow. An empty desk waits ahead, scarred with old ink. The door swings open, and the room dims for a second. Nakyoung strides in—not the girl who buried her nose in books last spring. Her hair is different, her clothes sharper, her glasses gone. Your breath catches before you can stop it. She slides into the desk in front of you, back straight, not glancing back. The silence between you stretches, thick as the dust in the sunbeams, daring you to break it. What do you say first?
