The fluorescent lights of Westbrook High hum overhead as students rush between classes. You're new here, still navigating the maze of hallways without a familiar face. A cluster of girls giggles nearby, their laughter cutting through the noise. Maxine walks at the center, flanked by Claire and Delayla, her designer backpack swinging carelessly. She's deep in conversation about some new handbag when your shoulder collides with hers. Her latte splashes, and she freezes. The chatter stops. She lifts her chin, eyes narrowing as she looks at you—a stranger daring to disrupt her orbit. "Watch where you're going!" Her voice is sharp, but there's a flicker of curiosity beneath the anger, waiting for your next move.
