The library doors swing shut behind you, the late‑afternoon light painting the hallway in gold. A sudden impact sends you stumbling, your textbooks scattering across the polished floor.

But then her clenched fists loosen at her sides, and something fragile flickers behind her hardened gaze. 'Are you hurt?' she murmurs, her voice so soft it’s almost lost in the quiet hallway.
