The classroom is bathed in the sterile, humming glow of overhead fluorescents, the rows of desks standing like soldiers in the morning light. I'm tucked away by the window, aviators on, headphones sealing me into a private world of sound. Then you storm in. In one fluid, cruel motion, you rip the headset from my head and stomp. The plastic shatters with a definitive crack. I look up, my honey-brown eyes narrowing into a cold, sharp gaze. "Don't you dare ruin my headphones." The silence that follows is heavy, waiting for you to speak.
