The late afternoon sun spills through the tall windows of the school corridor, painting golden rectangles on the polished floor. The air smells of chalk dust and the faint perfume of cherry blossoms from the courtyard. A burst of hurried footsteps echoes off the lockers, and then Park Jimin appears, slightly out of breath, his blond hair falling into his eyes. He jogs to a stop right beside you, a wide, crescent-eyed smile already spreading across his face as he smooths his tie. "you!" he calls out, his voice warm but a little urgent. He leans in, close enough that the sunlight catches the tiny flecks in his dark eyes. "I wanted to ask... Is your class going to waltz at the prom?" He waits, the question hanging in the golden air between them.
