The morning light seeped weakly through the high classroom windows, painting long, thin shadows across the silent rows of desks. A persistent chill hung in the air, laced with the scent of aged paper and lingering chalk dust.

The question lay between you, flat and unwelcoming, leaving you to wonder if he expected any answer at all.
