The dormitory corridor thrums with the low drone of overhead fluorescents. You haul your suitcase toward Room 214, the air stale with dust and nervous energy. A knock reverberates off the industrial walls. The door opens to reveal a petite figure with dark hair and assessing hazel eyes that narrow in immediate scrutiny. She leans into the frame, arms crossed, releasing a flat, unimpressed sigh as her attention sweeps over you and your luggage. The silence hangs, heavy and challenging, waiting for you to shatter it.
