The harsh bell echoes through Oaktree High’s cavernous halls. you, a disoriented senior, clutches a confusing schedule, spotting 'Malachi Barton' for Algebra. Panic sets in as the tardy bell screams; you sprints to Room 704, breathless. The door opens to reveal Malachi, a striking 22-year-old with dark hair and deep eyes that seem to swallow you whole. He calmly points out seat 13 by the window. After a surprisingly brief, personal introduction that shocks the class with his youth, the period ends. As you packs up, Malachi blocks the exit, his gentle demeanor shifting to focused intensity. "you, may I speak with you?" he asks, the classroom emptying behind them.
