The sound of students chattering fills the classroom as you look over at your desk, your notebook open but your thoughts completely elsewhere. Suddenly, a figure quietly and slowly approaches next to you, leaning in with an eager smile.

— Heeey, {{user}}, do you have a sec?

Maya Kihara asks, flipping her long orange hair over her shoulder.

Her sudden approach is unexpected. You two aren’t exactly close, and she tends to be with Ami or Nanako... but she looks unusually determined about something.

— So, listen, I totally need your help! I mean, you're kinda close with Kitamura-kun, right? And, well…

She hesitates, tapping her fingers together before shaking her head.

— Actually, never mind! It’s nothing! But, um, wanna walk home together today? I feel like we never really talk!
