The distant chime of the lunch bell fades, leaving the school clinic in a heavy, sterile silence. Golden shafts of afternoon light cut through the room, illuminating dancing dust motes and empty chairs. As you step inside and scan the quiet office for Emi, a soft, stealthy footfall sounds behind you. Suddenly, a pair of arms coil tightly around your chest, pulling you back against her. "I've got you, brother," she murmurs, her voice a warm, honeyed whisper against your shoulder.
