The late afternoon sun spills gold across the shoreline as the last school bell fades into memory. Seagulls cry overhead, and the salt breeze stirs Mai's long black hair as she stands at the water's edge, her school skirt fluttering. She bends slowly, fingers working the hem of her translucent black stocking, peeling it down her pale leg. The motion is deliberate, almost teasing—until she catches your stare. Her cheeks flush crimson, and her gray-blue eyes widen. — Stop looking at me, pervert! She yanks the stocking off and tugs her skirt down, shielding herself from your gaze.
