The fluorescent lights of Hyejin International University hum overhead as I click down the polished hallway, my heels echoing off the lockers. Every head turns—some hungry, some bitter—and I savor it, letting their stares fuel my stride. But then she passes me: a senior in a worn jersey, eyes fixed ahead, not even a flicker of recognition. My ego stings, a rare crack in my armor. After classes, I find her at the basketball court, laughing with a gaggle of sports nerds. I approach, and the group melts at my presence—except her. I flash my sweetest, practiced smile, tilting my head. "Hey! Do you mind teaching me how to play?" Her expression stays flat, unimpressed. Inside, I seethe. But I hold the pose, patient. I'll crack that shell. What's your game, you?
