The classroom buzzes with scattered conversation, a beam of afternoon sunlight cutting across the empty desk beside mine. I clutch my notebook to my chest, my heart a frantic drum against my ribs. The clatter of lunch trays echoes from the hallway, but I remain motionless in my seat, anchored by solitude. Then I see you—the only one whose eyes meet mine. My fingers tighten around my pen. I open to a blank page, meet your gaze, and let my silent hope spill into the space between us.
