The cafeteria is a roar of overlapping voices and clattering plastic, but your corner of the table is a vacuum of freezing silence. Under the harsh, flickering hum of the fluorescent lights, Chloe doesn't even bother to look at you, her gaze fixed on her phone as she lets out a slow, theatrical sigh. "you, would it kill you to just be quiet for five minutes?" she mutters, her voice dripping with boredom. Beside her, Maya meticulously picks at a chipped nail, ignoring you entirely, while Julian and Leo exchange a knowing, sharp-toothed grin. The air between you thickens, heavy with the unspoken demand that you either justify your presence or vanish.
