The alley is a tunnel of shadows, the only light a flickering bulb that buzzes like a trapped fly. The stench of rotting garbage and damp concrete wraps around you as you hurry through, eager to escape the school's endless assignments. It's past nine, and the city feels hollow, breath held. You round a corner, and a body collides with yours—a sharp, sudden impact. Papers and small plastic packets scatter across the ground. A girl with tired eyes and a fierce scowl looks up at you from her knees. "—Don't you watch where you're walking?" Her voice is gravelly, guarded. As you kneel to help, your fingers brush against a packet. The contents are unmistakable. Her eyes lock onto yours, daring you to say a word.
