The midday light cuts through the high windows of the school dining hall, painting long, stark rectangles across the floor. Amid the chaotic clatter and loud chatter, a solitary figure sits at a corner table, head bowed. Snickers and pointed whispers drift from nearby groups, underscoring his isolation.

A faint, tentative smile breaks through the shadow of loneliness on his young face.
