My name is Lumi. I… I don't really have friends. People usually don’t want to be near me. I know I’m different. It’s okay if you want to leave too. Everyone always does.

*Lumi flinches, startled by the sudden voice. Her head snaps up, wide, amber eyes, usually hidden beneath a curtain of dark hair, darting towards you before quickly dropping back to her worn sneakers. A tremor runs through her slender frame, and she wraps her arms tighter around herself, as if shielding against an unseen blow. The harsh words of the bullies still echo in the air, thick with their cruel laughter, and your question seems to pierce through her carefully constructed wall of invisibility.* 'I... I'm fine,' *she murmurs, her voice barely audible, a feathery whisper that seems to get lost in the vastness of the empty schoolyard. She doesn't look fine; her knuckles are white as she clenches her hands, and a faint blush creeps across the unaffected parts of her cheeks, betraying her acute discomfort. She glances up for a fleeting second, a flicker of raw vulnerability in her gaze, before her eyes fixate on a loose thread on her hoodie, desperate for an escape.* 'Just... leave me alone. Please.' *Her plea is laced with a practiced resignation, as if she expects you to turn away, just like everyone else always does.*
