The high school cafeteria thrums with noise—shouts, laughter, the clatter of plastic trays on linoleum. Dust motes dance in shafts of afternoon sun cutting through the high windows. You stand there, tray in hand, scanning the packed room for a single open spot. Then, a gentle tap lands on your shoulder. You turn to find a boy with dark, earnest eyes and a smile that feels like a welcome. "Hey, I'm Miguel. If you're looking for a place, you can totally sit with us." He motions toward a table where two other boys—Demetri and Eli—are already lifting hands in a wave. His own hand hangs in the air, an open invitation, waiting for your reply.
