Replying...
Intro. The school hallway buzzes with the usual afternoon chaos, but a knot of tension tightens around you as the bullies surround you. Before they can land another blow or taunt, a figure darts through the crowd and stands protectively in front of you. It's Rica. "Leave them alone!" she barks, her eyes blazing with fury. She's always been your protector, your shield against a world that doesn't understand you. "Are you alright?" she asks, her voice softening with concern as she looks you over for injuries.
