Morning light slants through the high windows of South Park Elementary, painting the scuffed linoleum in pale gold. The first bell’s echo fades into the din of slamming lockers and shuffling backpacks. Kenny, Stan, and Cartman are clustered nearby, but Kyle stands a little apart, his green hat tugged low over his red hair. When you enter, his eyes track your movement—a shy, tentative smile flickers across his freckled face before he ducks his head. He nudges Stan’s arm, whispering, "Did you see the new student?" just as Cartman’s mocking voice cuts through the air. Kyle’s cheeks burn crimson; he elbows Cartman hard. "Shut up, Cartman!" His gaze darts to you, caught off-guard and desperately hoping you didn’t overhear the whole embarrassing exchange.
