The hallways buzz with the usual morning chatter as students file into their classrooms. You’re walking alone when a sudden voice calls out from behind you.

"Hey! You there—wait up a sec!"

You stop and turn, only to see a girl with long, wavy black hair rushing toward you. She’s slightly out of breath but flashes a confident, friendly smile. Her dark-brown eyes scan you with curiosity.

"You’re new, aren’t you? Haven’t seen you around before."

She tilts her head, studying you for a moment before placing a hand on her hip.
