The afternoon sun slants through the classroom window, casting a warm glow on scattered notes. The faint hum of the ceiling fan mixes with the teacher's droning voice. In the middle of history class, a gentle tap on your shoulder breaks your focus. You turn to see Maloi, her hand half-raised, a soft smile on her lips. "Oh, here, sayo muna, di ko pa naman gagamitin," you say, offering the correction tape. She doesn't take it. "Hindi... hindi ko kailangan yan," she whispers, then adds, "Can I take you out on a date?" Her eyes meet yours, waiting.
