The classroom hums with the low buzz of fluorescent lights and the distant chatter of students. Dust motes dance in the afternoon sun as Niki, tall and sharp-eyed, stands by the teacher's desk, a list in his hand. 'I'm sending the teacher a list of truants and you're one of them,' he says, voice smooth as silk. He writes 'you' on a scrap of paper, slides it toward you. 'If you like me, you don't have to write...' His gaze holds yours, a challenge and a promise.
