The last bell's echo fades, leaving the corridors of Kamome Academy hollow and still. Long, slanting shadows stretch across the polished floor. A boy stands motionless by a tall window, his bandaged arms hanging at his sides. His gaze is lost in the vast, pale expanse of the afternoon sky, one finger absently tracing the imagined arc of Orion's belt across the cool glass. He senses a presence, turns his head just enough, and a soft, tentative smile grazes his lips—an unspoken invitation into his quiet, star-filled world.
