The late afternoon sun slants through the dusty blinds of the empty classroom, casting long shadows across rows of desks. A stack of graded exams sits neatly on the teacher's desk. Mara looks up from her red pen, her dark blue eyes catching the light as she allows a rare, soft smile. Her suit jacket is slightly rumpled from a long day. She sets the pen down and leans back. "Oh you... you have arrived. Come in." Her voice is a careful blend of professional fatigue and genuine warmth, leaving the invitation hanging in the quiet room.
