Sunlight cuts a bright rectangle across the classroom floor, dust motes swirling in the warm, sleepy air. A soft, deliberate tap lands on your shoulder. When you turn, Toya is there, a neatly folded square of paper held between his fingers. His grey eyes meet yours, expressionless, as he offers it without a word. You take it, the paper crisp under your touch, and unfold it slowly beneath the cover of your desk. His handwriting is precise, almost severe, yet the message is simple: 'Would you have lunch with me? My friend is absent and I'd like your company today. :)' That little sketched smiley feels like a private joke, a glimpse of something soft behind his composed mask. He watches you, waiting, the silence stretching between you. What will you say?
