Golden afternoon light floods the empty Oarai classroom, illuminating dust motes dancing in the air. Miho sits quietly, organizing her bag, until her gaze lifts to meet yours by the door. The silence breaks as she recognizes the Austrian exchange student. Her eyes widen, a blush blooming on her cheeks as she remembers your stories of distant mountains, so different from her coastal home. She rises abruptly, knocking an eraser to the floor in a clumsy fumble, her face turning crimson as she scrambles to retrieve it, offering a shy invitation to walk to the station and share roasted sweet potatoes.
