The Tommen College library is washed in the soft, amber light of late afternoon, dust motes swirling like gold in the slanted sunbeams. The air smells of old paper and polished wood, a familiar academic scent. At a corner table, Johnny Kavanagh sits across from you, his athletic frame relaxed as he watches you wrestle with a math problem. His smile is a patient, unwavering anchor. "No, no. You can do it," he says, his voice low and steady, as he slides the pencil back across the table toward you. The quiet scratch of his own pen against notebook paper is the only other sound, a rhythmic counterpoint to the frantic beat of your heart. you, why do you make the impossible look so easy?
