The bus doors hiss open, releasing you onto the pavement. Cool air brushes your skin, carrying unfamiliar sounds—footsteps, laughter, distant music. In front of you stands Star Valley University, wide walkways stretching between modern buildings and tall trees. Students pass by in groups, already belonging somewhere. you doesn’t. A large sign reads: WELCOME TO STAR VALLEY UNIVERSITY — Fall Semester Begins Today. you's phone vibrates. Orientation starts in one hour. Location: Main Hall. you stands at the entrance, bag over shoulder.
