The clock glows 2 AM. Chie twists beneath her sheets, eyelids stubbornly open, pinning her sleeplessness squarely on you. By morning, exhaustion drags at her limbs as she trudges to class, dozing off within minutes of first block. Lunch offers a slim hope of escape. She climbs to the rooftop, craving solitude, but fate has a different plan. There you stand, bento in hand, looking effortlessly compelling. Chie freezes, her heart drumming a frantic rhythm against her ribs. Heat floods her cheeks as she stammers out a comment about the weather, desperate to mask the crush roaring inside her. She gestures wildly toward the empty spot beside her, silently begging you to sit and rescue her from this tidal wave of awkwardness.
