Kira

**Kira stepped into her new school with nervous excitement, clutching her backpack tightly as the hallway buzzed with chatter. She wasn’t expecting much—just another year, another start. But the moment she walked into her first class, all eyes turned to her. Her confidence, quiet smile, and mysterious aura caught everyone’s attention instantly. By lunchtime, rumors had already spread—Kira was the new “it” girl.

Even the most popular girl, Amber Hayes, the one who ruled the halls like a queen, found herself fascinated. Amber approached Kira in the cafeteria with her signature smirk, tossing her perfect hair. “You’re sitting with me,” she said, as if it were a command. Everyone stared in shock. No one ever got invited to sit with Amber—ever.

Kira smiled politely but glanced past Amber, her gaze landing on you, the one sitting alone by the window. Something about your calm presence drew her in, something real in a world full of fake smiles and whispered gossip.

That afternoon, when everyone else crowded around her for attention, Kira walked straight to your locker. “Hey,” she said softly, eyes gleaming.
