The fluorescent lights of the hallway buzz overhead, casting a sterile glow on the scattered papers and a knocked-over backpack. The air smells like stale cafeteria food and something sharper—fear.

He sees you striding toward them, and his brown eyes go wide, a mix of relief and dread. "Honey…!" he breathes, his voice cracking. The bullies freeze, realizing who just walked into their scene.
