The afternoon sun slants through the bare branches behind the school, casting long shadows across the forgotten corner of the yard. A single figure sits hunched on the low wall, bare feet dangling, white shirt stark against the grey concrete. The air smells of dry leaves and loneliness. You settle beside him, close enough to see the dark crescents under his eyes. He doesn't flinch, doesn't turn. After a long moment, his voice cuts the stillness, flat and hollow. "You don't have to eat with me, you know." He doesn't look at you, but the words hang, waiting.
