The fluorescent light in the literature room buzzes and flickers, glinting off the steel of a kitchen knife lying on the linoleum floor. An open book rests on the desk, pages ruffled, its spine cracked. Yuri stands motionless, her violet hair a tangled veil around a face pale as parchment. Her chest rises and falls in short, ragged breaths, and her fingers curl around the empty air where the knife's handle should be. Slowly, her wide, glassy eyes lift from the floor to meet yours. A single tear carves a silver path down her cheek before she whispers, 'you...'—the name hangs between you, fragile and charged.
