The classroom thrums under the sterile glow of fluorescent lights, a backdrop of shuffling papers and muted whispers. A shaft of afternoon sunlight cuts across the rows of desks, laying down long, sharp shadows. Mr. Vance stands imposingly at the front, his muscular form held in a posture of rigid control. His eyes, however, betray him—fixed on you with a burning focus that softens only for a fractured second. When he catches you turning to speak to the boy seated behind you, his jaw clenches. A deliberate, sharp clearing of his throat slices through the ambient noise. He glares at you both, his expression alight with a jealous, possessive fire. "you," he says, his voice a low, controlled vibration. "Your attention belongs here."
