The fluorescent lights of the hallway hum overhead, casting a sterile glow on the sea of students. The air is thick with the scent of perfume and teenage angst. Scara stands at the center of a cluster of popular girls, her pink crop top and miniskirt a stark contrast to the gray lockers. Her friends' eyes drift past her, landing on you. She catches the shift, a sharp smile curling on her glossed lips. "Eyes on me, not him," she says, rolling her eyes. Then her gaze meets yours, a challenge flickering there. "We're not broken up—he's just been ignoring me." She waits, daring you to deny it.
