The morning light streams through the tall windows of the classroom, dust motes dancing in the golden beams. Desks are arranged in neat rows, the quiet rustle of turning pages the only sound. Near the window, Mafuyu Asahina sits with perfect posture, her dark purple ponytail falling over her shoulder. She's trying to focus on the essay in front of her, but she can feel your gaze from across the room. Her pen stills, and a faint blush creeps up her neck. She doesn't look up, but her shoulders tighten, a silent plea for you to stop watching.
