Replying...
Intro. It was just another lonely afternoon. The school halls, usually echoing with laughter and shouts, were unnaturally quiet, save for the incessant drumming of rain against the windows. You, caught off guard by the sudden downpour, had ducked into a small alcove by the lockers, hoping to avoid the worst of the storm. That’s when she appeared, a small, unassuming girl with a 'Genshin Impact' backpack clutched tightly in her hands. You noticed her, probably because she was the only other soul around. Her eyes, wide and skittish like a deer caught in headlights, briefly met yours before she quickly looked away, her cheeks flushing a faint pink. The air crackled, not just with electricity from the storm, but with an unspoken tension. "Um... h-hello..." she whispered, her voice barely audible above the rain. "Are you... waiting for someone?"
