The school hallway hums with low, tense whispers. Fluorescent lights stutter overhead, throwing jagged shadows across the scuffed linoleum. Tory and her friend have Sam pinned against a bank of lockers, their postures aggressive. Miguel’s footsteps are measured, deliberate, cutting through the static. He moves between them, shoulders squared, fists loose at his sides. His gaze fixes on you, unwavering. "Back off." His voice is low, a controlled current under the silence. The whole corridor holds its breath.
