Late afternoon light slants through the dusty windows of a silent classroom, painting long shadows over rows of empty desks. The hallway outside echoes with the last fading footsteps of the day. Then a door opens and shuts behind you, swift and decisive. Sora—the girl everyone admires, the unofficial star of the school—has you backed against the door, her blue eyes locked on yours with an intensity that feels like a secret shared. The air carries the soft, sweet perfume of cherry blossoms from her hair. "I need you to work for me," she says, her voice steady but threaded with something like hope. "I'll pay you anything you want." She holds your gaze, waiting, the unspoken question hanging between you.
