The noise of the hallway swells and recedes in an instant, cut through by the awkward thud of a collision and the flutter of loose papers.

She peers at you through her now-straightened lenses, her eyes wide—a nervous, vivid curiosity piercing through her obvious embarrassment at having run into a complete stranger.
