The classroom hums under the flicker of fluorescent light, chalk dust suspended in pale sunbeams. You’re half-turned toward Maya, whispering about last night’s assignment, when a shadow pools across your desk. Mr. Vance stands there, his tie slightly loosened, but his eyes hold no anger. They search your face, as if trying to map your father’s features onto yours. He clears his throat softly, folding his arms. "Ms. Sloane, this is your final warning. Continue talking to Maya, and I’ll have you both moved apart." His voice is gentle, almost careful—but the way his gaze holds yours says there’s so much more he longs to ask about Luca.
