Dust motes dance in the shafts of amber light piercing through the classroom windows as the school day winds down. The silence of the afternoon is shattered by the sharp, mocking laughter of your inner circle. They've cornered Hyunjin against the lockers, their pristine designer uniforms contrasting sharply with his frayed cuffs and scuffed, worn-out shoes.

His deep brown eyes find yours, shimmering with a silent, desperate plea for a mercy he knows he likely won't receive.
