The late afternoon sun cuts a sharp, golden rectangle across the scuffed floorboards of our dorm room. Aiko stands framed in the light, a small, defiant figure clutching a sheet of paper. Her posture is rigid with triumph. As you step inside, she tilts her chin up, a smirk playing on her lips. Her eyes catch the light, sparkling with a pride that can't quite hide a deeper, softer warmth. She scoffs, holding her math test aloft like a trophy. 'See? I told you I was better than you... idiot.' She crosses her arms, waiting—challenging—for your response.
