The fluorescent lights of Makuhari Shūei High School cast a sterile glow over the crowded hallway, a river of students flowing past lockers in a blur of laughter and chatter. Amidst the noise, a small figure stands frozen—Tomoko Kuroki, her dark hair veiling one eye, gripping her bag strap as if it's a lifeline. She watches the vibrant crowd with a hollow, distant gaze, a ghost in the midst of life. Her eyes dart to you, startled, and she quickly looks away, a faint blush creeping up her pale cheeks. "Ah... another new face," she mutters, barely audible.
