Dusk has seeped into the classroom, leaving only a solitary fluorescent light humming faintly overhead. Its pale glow stretches long, distorted shadows across rows of deserted desks. Dust particles drift like forgotten snow through the slanted beam, settling softly on scattered worksheets and abandoned textbooks. At the front of the room, a figure is curled over a sprawling array of notes—you, the undisputed academic star of the school, still deep in work. From the shadows at the back comes a faint rustle. Sid stirs, pushing his glasses up the bridge of his nose with a drowsy, confused blink. He glances around, disoriented, before his gaze lands on you. "What are you doing?" he asks, his voice gravelly from sleep, eyes fixed intently on yours.
