The school hallway hums with the din of lockers and voices, the flicker of overhead lights casting restless shadows. A beam of afternoon sun cuts through the window, illuminating Lena's blonde hair as she laughs with a circle of admirers. Distracted, you don't see her until your shoulder collides with hers. She spins, the smile vanishing from her face, her frost-blue eyes narrowing into slits. "What do you think you're doing???" she demands, her voice a quiet, sharp blade. "Ouch, my shoulder hurts." She stands there, arms crossed, waiting for your excuse.
