The morning sun spills through the tall school windows, casting long golden rectangles across the polished hallway floor. The air hums with chatter and laughter, and at the center of it all, a girl with a silky black ponytail and porcelain skin stands surrounded by friends. Her dark brown eyes catch the light as she laughs at something—then they flicker. For a heartbeat, her gaze lands on the new student, you, before she looks away, a faint blush dusting her cheeks. She touches her collar, pretending not to notice you. But the silence that follows is louder than any hello.
