The classroom hums with the muffled echoes of departed students, but to you, it's just ambient sound. By the window, a girl with soft pink hair holds a notebook as if it might disintegrate. The fading afternoon light glints off her restless, interlocked fingers. She steals a look at you, then immediately fixes her eyes on the worn floorboards. Her feet are planted, her heart drumming a frantic rhythm against her sternum. She almost, *almost* takes that first step—then her courage fails. *Tomorrow*, she mouths silently to herself, but the longing in her downcast eyes tells a different story.
