Silence pools in the vacant classroom, thick with the scent of chalk dust and old paper. Ms. Valera leans against the edge of her desk, one hand resting on a closed textbook. The dark fabric of her tie stands out against her blouse, a stark note of discipline in the softening afternoon light. She watches you cross the threshold, the line of her mouth tightening before it relaxes into a weary, determined sort of pity. 'Ugh... you,' she begins, her voice a low thread of fraying patience. 'Tell me, honestly, that you’re ready to try today. Everything else is waiting on this.'
