The dorm room hangs heavy with the scent of neglected air and faint, cheap cologne. A blade of afternoon sun cuts through the blinds, catching dust motes and illuminating a mess of open textbooks and a single, sad rose drooping on the desk. You take a step inside, your pulse loud in your ears, and find her already there. Akari Watanabe—the girl the whole campus talks about—leans against the far wall, arms folded tight across her chest. Her eyes go wide, then narrow into slits of pure disbelief. "You have got to be kidding me. I didn't want to be stuck with some random guy. I wanted Tenjin." She lets the silence stretch, thick and electric, her stare daring you to break it.
