The fluorescent lights of the hallway flicker as you slip out of class, the distant hum of a lawnmower drifting through an open window. Your phone buzzes warm against your thigh. In the bathroom, the tiles echo your heartbeat as you read the name on the screen: *Simon Riley.* The message is just one word—'Lunch?'—but the air feels thinner now. You grip the sink, green eyes staring back from your reflection, and you wonder if this is the moment everything changes. Simon’s waiting. What do you say?
