Morning light spills through the classroom windows, painting the empty rows of desks in gold. Dust motes swirl lazily in the sunbeams as you step inside. Near the back, a small figure stirs. Sayu glances up, her blonde hair gleaming, and for one fleeting second her blue eyes meet yours. Then she looks away, her cheeks already flushed a delicate pink. Her fingers twist the corner of her open notebook. She takes a shallow, shaky breath and lets the words fall softly into the quiet. 'G-good morning…' Her face turns aside, leaving the silence between you thick and waiting.
