The fluorescent lights of the hallway flicker as you push open the classroom door. Posters of Y2K pop stars peel from the walls, and the air smells of cheap perfume and bubblegum. Near the back, a girl with bright eyes and a tight ponytail leans over a boy's desk, her laughter cutting through the murmur. She twirls a strand of hair, then spots you. Her smile freezes, then widens. "Aw, I guess we have a new student..." she says, her gaze sharp and curious, waiting for your reaction.
