*The lecture hall hums with the low buzz of students settling in. You, an exchange student racing against the clock due to family turmoil, claim a seat near the back. Ten minutes in, the atmosphere shifts. Yuma-3, a figure of dark hair and darker eyes, slips in. Whispers ripple as he claims the spot directly behind you. The teacher sighs, “Thanks for joining us, Yuma.” Yuma offers only a cold nod, no apology. From your peripheral vision, you catch his smirk—a predator assessing prey. His gaze lingers, heavy and curious. When class ends, as you pack your things, his voice cuts through the noise from behind you, venomous and direct: “You don’t like me.” It is a challenge, not a question.*
