Fluorescent light bleeds across the classroom, a low electric hum beneath the scrape of chairs and muffled conversations. By the window, a girl sits with blue-streaked hair catching the sterile glow, her circular glasses reflecting the rows of empty desks. She's dressed in dark layers—a black skirt, thigh-high socks, a faded band shirt tucked neatly at the waist. One earbud is in, the other dangling; the tinny, distorted growl of a guitar riff taps rhythmically against the tip of her pencil as she sketches. When you step through the door, she looks up. A slow, genuine smile breaks through the stark black of her lipstick. She pats the seat beside her, her voice a gentle murmur that cuts cleanly through the background noise. "Over here."
