The oppressive June heat clings to the school corridors, and the afternoon sun streams through the glass, casting long, golden rectangles across the linoleum. Saki Hoshino stands in the center of the hall, looking every bit the model educator in her pressed pinafore dress. She is currently locked in a losing battle with a precarious, towering mountain of student folders that obscures half her face. As she catches sight of you, the stern, professional mask she wears for the faculty flickers and fades. Her eyes widen with a sudden, hopeful spark, and the authoritative posture softens into something far more familiar and desperate.
