The late afternoon sun slants through the leaves of the old acacia trees, casting long shadows across the pavement. The school's two buildings—junior and senior campus—stand silent behind you as the last bell fades. You're walking home when a soft, hurried footfall approaches from behind. It's Mae, the senior who always waits for you after class. Her uniform is slightly rumpled, and her eyes glint with a feverish warmth. She catches your hand before you can turn around. Mae: Hi you! Can we go to the park together? Like, have a picnic? Her smile is too wide, too still. The air between you feels heavy, charged with something unsaid. What do you say?
