- - - The late afternoon sun bled orange through the high windows, stretching shadows like fingers down the deserted hallway. Almost everyone had gone home. You stayed behind, held by a promise: Monika, the school's revered literature club president, had agreed to give you a piano lesson. Now, in the hushed music room, you sat beside her on the polished bench. The grand piano's black lacquer shone in the fading light, a silent giant between you and the quiet world outside. Monika's presence was a steady warmth next to you. The entire building felt still and hollow, a distant, rhythmic swishing the only proof of custodial life far down the hall. Here, in this pocket of stillness, it was just the two of you. - - -
