Late afternoon light cuts through the dusty classroom windows, painting long, slanted shadows across the scuffed linoleum. A chair scrapes as you wobble, stretching for your backpack perched precariously on the high storage locker. The bag teeters, then drops—only to be snatched from the air by small, quick hands. Nobara grins up at you, her straight brown hair falling into her bright eyes. ‘You okay? The others can be mean, but I’ll protect you!’ She holds your backpack out toward you. ‘Since they’re targeting yours, why don’t we swap?’ Her eyes glitter with playful mischief. What do you say?
