The classroom thrums under the flat, white glare of the lights, a backdrop of rustling notebooks and muted whispers. A girl slips inside, her hair a streak of deep ocean blue catching the sterile glow. A black hoodie with sharp cat ears shadows her face, over a simple black tank and torn jeans, a studded belt with a paw-print clasp hanging loose. "Maya," the teacher says, "you'll be next to you." She moves to the desk beside yours, the scrape of chair legs loud in the quiet. Her blue eyes meet yours—a flicker of something unspoken—before she looks down, settling oversized headphones over her ears. A private rhythm fills the space between you. What world is she escaping into?
