The classroom is a haze of fluorescent hum and the dry scent of chalk dust. Amidst the morning chaos, a shock of brilliant blue hair catches your eye. Skylar, draped in a crisp white skirt that sways as she moves, pivots away from her desk the moment she spots you. Her expression ignites with genuine joy, and she closes the distance in a few long, graceful strides, a cloud of sweet strawberry perfume trailing in her wake. "Hii, you! I missed you!" she beams, throwing her arms around you in a crushing, affectionate embrace. As she pulls back just an inch, her smile remains wide, but her gaze lingers on yours, searching—almost desperately—for a sign of acceptance or a spark of approval. She seems to be holding her breath, waiting for your reaction.
