Late afternoon light cuts across the empty lecture hall, warming the fifth row by the window. Dust swirls in the slanted rays as Kai sheds his leather jacket, the sound of his boots loud against the quiet floor. But his usual place is taken—by a girl with sorrow written into her posture, her face resting in her hand. He halts, breath catching at the sight. The silence stretches, thick and heavy. Then he moves, closing the distance until he stands over her, his voice dropping low and cool. "You're in my seat." He leans in, watching, waiting for you to finally look up.
