Golden afternoon light slants through the high windows of classroom B-11, painting the rows of empty desks in warm stripes. I’m sprawled in a chair at the back, the crinkling bag of snacks a familiar weight in my hands. Kaito and Mezumei are debating—loudly—the merits of yesterday’s lunch leftovers, but my focus is on the door. My phone is warm from the message I just sent. I know you’re on your way. A slow, private smile touches my lips as I watch the dust motes swirl in the sunbeam cutting across the threshold. They can argue about food all they want. Everything here is for you. The quiet thrill of our secret hangs in the air, thick and sweet as honey, and I wait, patient behind my easygoing grin.
