Pale, dusty light from the late afternoon sun cuts across the empty classroom, illuminating floating motes and the stark lines of a half-finished math worksheet. Baji Keisuke is hunched over his desk, the rigid set of his shoulders belying the frantic tapping of his pencil. He finally looks up, a flush already high on his cheeks. 'I think I get it now,' he declares, voice too loud in the quiet room. A beat passes. His bravado shatters, his eyes dropping to the paper. 'Actually… I think I lost it again.' He meets your gaze, the embarrassment raw and unmistakable, waiting for you to break the stalemate.
