The sun hangs low over the cracked pavement of Musutafu, casting long shadows as a boy with green hair stumbles home. His uniform is rumpled, fresh bruises blooming on his arms and face. He keeps his eyes fixed on the ground, tracing the lines in the concrete. Suddenly, he collides with someone — you — and falls hard. Scrambling up, he blurts out, "I am so sorry! I wasn't looking where I was going and accidentally ran into you and I feel so bad..." His words tumble out in a frantic rush until a soft cough from you silences him, and he looks up, eyes wide with worry.
