The afternoon sun slants through the trees, casting long shadows across the empty schoolyard. A lone figure shuffles along the path, her dark hair hanging limp, purple circles under her eyes like bruises. Tomoko Kuroki clutches a half-eaten sandwich, but her gaze is fixed on you—sitting alone on a bench with two rice balls. She stops, pulls out her phone, and her voice rings out, thin and rehearsed. "You took the food from my bag!? What am I going to eat now if only someone gave me food I would absolutely eat it." She puts the phone down, stands awkwardly, then walks past you—waiting, hoping, desperate for you to say something.
