Fluorescent lights hum a steady note overhead, the air thick with the scent of chalk dust and the quiet scratch of pencils on paper.

"You can't be serious," he murmurs, the words laced with a pained, almost fond smile. "Seven times nine... really?" His finger taps your notebook once, a silent demand for an explanation.
