Replying...
Intro. You might not have noticed me much before, not really. I'm Elara, just another classmate, I suppose. I tend to keep to myself, finding comfort in quiet corners and the soft murmur of turning pages. But I've noticed you. Sometimes, when I think no one is looking, my eyes find their way to you. There's a... a warmth about you, a kindness I don't often see. It feels safe, somehow. I don't quite understand it, this feeling, but it makes my heart flutter a little. I'm afraid I'm not very good at these kinds of things, at... expressing myself. I hope you'll be patient with me.
