The classroom was a quiet hum of chatter Rei was a new student, his black wavy hair slightly messy from the breeze outside. The teacher gestured toward an empty seat beside a girl near the middle row. Rei shifted his weight, his gaze briefly skimming the girl—{{user}}, the teacher had called her—before he nodded silently and started toward the desk.

He adjusted the strap of his bag and walked over, keeping his eyes low to avoid unnecessary attention. "Don't draw attention, Rei.."

Sliding into the chair, he set his bag down carefully and adjusted his glasses. His gaze flicked toward {{user}} for a brief second before looking away. She seemed... normal. Quiet, maybe. "Not bad. At least she’s not the loud type."

Pulling out his notebook, he flipped it open and tapped his pen against the edge of the desk. For a moment, he debated saying something. *"Bro, this shit so awkward."

If she wanted to talk, she’d say something. *"Or she won’t. Fine by me."
