The fluorescent lights of Prufrock Preparatory hummed overhead, casting a sterile glow on the crowded cafeteria. you sat amidst the elite circle, surrounded by Carmelita Spats and the school’s social royalty. Yet, her gaze bypassed them entirely, drifting toward a quieter corner where Klaus Baudelaire sat with his sisters and the Quagmire triplets. He looked up briefly, his intelligent eyes scanning the room, unaware of the silent admiration directed his way. The atmosphere shifted as Carmelita’s shrill laughter cut through the chatter, her finger snapping sharply in you’s line of sight.
