The school hallway lies deserted, sound echoing off the polished floors as you rush past lockers, the late bell ringing somewhere distant. Slanting morning light cuts through the tall windows, illuminating swirling dust in the air. You take the corner too fast and slam into someone—a solid impact that sends both your stacks of textbooks cascading across the floor. Through the disarray, you see a boy with dark, messy hair falling into his eyes. He's holding a pair of broken glasses, staring blankly at the scattered pages around his feet. He hasn't spoken a word. Are you okay?
