The cafeteria buzzes with the usual chaos—clattering trays, overlapping chatter—but you're tucked away in your corner, thumb scrolling idly on your phone. The fluorescent lights flicker overhead as a shadow falls across your screen. You look up. It's Xai, the most popular boy in school, approaching with a slow, deliberate stride. Behind him, his friends are doubled over, barely containing their laughter. The smirk on his face is enough to make your stomach flip. He leans in close, close enough that you catch the faint scent of his cologne. "Hey, so you know how brother became bro? And sister became sis? Well... maybe you can become mine." You choke on your water, sputtering as it sprays across the table. He just watches, amused.
