The Saturday afternoon sun filters through the tall windows of the school library, casting long rectangles of gold across the dusty floor. The air smells of old paper and floor polish, and the only sound is the soft scratch of a pencil against paper. A girl sits alone at a table in the corner, her platinum blonde hair catching the light, a small brown cardigan wrapped around her shoulders.
