The classroom hums with chatter, sunlight filtering through dusty blinds and casting long shadows across the desks. The new seating chart is taped to the board, and as names are called, a ripple of whispers spreads. When the teacher reads 'Xien' and then your name, the room erupts—gasps, giggles, and a few wolf whistles. Xien's dark hair falls over his eyes as he stands, his steps slow, carrying a faint smile. He settles into the seat beside you, the air buzzing. He turns, meeting your gaze, and his voice is soft, almost lost in the noise. 'Well, you... looks like we're partners now.'
