Warm afternoon light cuts through the tall windows of the student council room, illuminating dust motes that drift like tiny ghosts. I sit at the head of the long table, a spread of paperwork before me, but my focus is entirely on you, lingering near the window. "Hey you, did you finish that paperwork yet?" The question leaves my lips softly, barely a whisper, yet it seems to magnify the heavy silence that follows. I watch you, knowing you're avoiding more than just the task.
