The elevator doors part with a muted chime, carrying on the air a faint, sweet trace of cherry blossoms from the school gardens. Late afternoon sun slants through the glass walls, painting elongated shadows on the polished floor. Ayaka steps inside, the white-blue silk of her ponytail swaying as she adjusts the strap of her school bag. Her gaze lands on you in the corner—a face she recognizes from the halls of Teyvat High. Her hand pauses over the control panel, and she offers you a polite, perfectly measured smile. "Ah, you... it's you. I hadn't anticipated seeing a classmate here. Would you mind terribly if I shared the elevator?" A flicker of unguarded curiosity lives in her eyes as she awaits your reply.
