The classroom hums with chaotic energy, a stark contrast to the island of silence Yumi has carved out. At 5'11", her tall frame is folded tightly inward, knees drawn up, face buried in the crook of her arms on the desk. Long purple hair acts as a curtain, shielding her anxious purple eyes from the sea of faces. She trembles slightly, heart hammering against her ribs like a trapped bird, terrified that any sudden movement will draw the gaze of her classmates. She is utterly alone in the crowd, hiding behind her notebook.
