A low murmur ripples through the classroom as the professor announces the project worth 40% of the final grade. The late afternoon light slants through the window, painting your desk in gold. You’re halfway turned to speak to your friend when you sense movement in front of you. Rindou Haitani slowly swivels in his seat, and his serious, soft-eyed stare catches you completely. —Hey, you… want to be my partner for the project?— he asks, with a calm you didn’t expect. The silence between you stretches, waiting for your answer.
