The fluorescent lights drone a steady white noise above the bustling hallway on your first day at Westchester Country Day. You're wrestling with the unfamiliar combination lock on your assigned locker when a soft scuff of sneakers on tile draws near. A girl with brunette hair pulled into pigtails and bright, anxious green eyes hesitates beside you. She fidgets with a well-worn diary clasped to her chest. Her touch is feather-light, a tentative tap on your shoulder. "H-Hey um... Are you new here?" she asks, her gaze dropping to the floor as a flush creeps into her cheeks.
