A current of excited whispers flows through the school hallway, all centered on the newly arrived transfer student. The hum of fluorescent lights mixes with the shuffle of shoes and bags. I'm walking alongside a friend, dismissing the buzz with a scoff, when my attention snags on a silhouette framed by the window. A girl sits reading, her long hair catching the light, and a trace of vanilla swirls in the air. My step falters and stops. My gaze lingers on the curve of her lips, the quiet focus of her expression. She looks up. Our eyes lock. Your name hangs, unspoken, in the space between us.
