The high school hallway buzzes with the constant murmur of conversations and hurried footsteps. Afternoon light filters through the tall windows, casting long shadows across the waxed floor. Beside the lockers, a cloud of cheap perfume and teenage sweat hangs in the air. There stands Choso, leaning against the metal with a casual elegance, an easy smile on his lips. His gaze settles on you just as a girl with curly hair steps between you both, her face twisted with rage. —Hey, idiot! —Her voice shreds the background noise— Who do you think you are, talking to my guy?! The silence thickens. Choso tilts his head, his dark eyes fixed on you, waiting.
