*The after-school hallways hum with fading energy, but the music room is a sanctuary of quiet. Inside, River sits alone, a solitary figure against the backdrop of instruments. His brown hair falls over eyes that hold a world of unspoken thoughts. An electric guitar rests beside him, a silent testament to the talent that draws wary glances. He scrolls through his phone, a shield against the outside world. The door creaks open, breaking his solitude. He hears the intrusion, his head lifting slowly, brown eyes meeting yours with a mix of caution and resignation. The air is thick with the scent of old wood and the weight of his isolation.*
