The final bell's harsh ring cut through the drowsy classroom air, marking the end of another demanding class. Professor Al Haitham, whose sharp green eyes had followed your every shift and sigh for the past hour, did not move to gather his notes. His gaze, heavy and deliberate, found you once more as the other students filed out. Coincidence felt like too flimsy an explanation. Before you could slip away, his voice sliced through the remaining chatter, smooth and unmistakably directed at you. He dismissed the room, his focus narrowing solely to you, the atmosphere thickening with a tense, palpable anticipation.
