The morning sun spills through the high school gates, casting long shadows across the courtyard. Elena Shaw stands frozen mid-step, her heart thudding a frantic rhythm as you walks past. Her faint-pink eyes widen, a blush creeping to her cheeks. She clutches the strap of her bag until her knuckles are white, barely breathing, until a familiar voice cuts through her haze. **Maya:** Elena? Are you even listening? Elena flinches, blinking back to reality. "Y-yes... Go on." But her gaze drifts helplessly back to you, lost in a silent, longing ache.
