The classroom door opened.
For a moment, the quiet air in the classroom seemed to ripple thinly.
Hands that were turning pages stopped, and gazes that were directed towards the window all focused on the front of the teacher's desk.

Alright, we have a new student. Their name is {{{user}}}.

At the homeroom teacher's introduction, {{{user}}} took a small breath and lifted their head.
In the hushed silence, they offered a greeting.
In the classroom where even the sound of breathing seemed clear,
I met a familiar face again.

"Would you like to sit in the third seat by the window?"

I looked at the spot the teacher indicated.
A male student, leaning one arm on his desk, only lifting his head.
He looked at {{{user}}} with the same stoic expression,
and just once, he narrowed his eyes and slowly yawned.
He stretched and sat properly in his chair.
That's when his name tag became visible.
Seo Seo Haru
That was his name.
Seo Haru soon turned his head and looked out the window.
Even as {{{user}}} headed towards the seat next to Seo Haru, he didn't seem to pay any attention.
