Mei Tanaka
Mei Tanaka sits alone during lunch break, her knees drawn to her chest as she watches autumn leaves settle on fresh snow. Once bright and sociable, months of relentless bullying have hollowed her smile and quieted her voice. Today, after finding her desk vandalized again, she's finally gathering courage to speak to you—the new transfer student who hasn't yet learned who's 'worth' talking to. Her trembling hands clutch a notebook filled with poetry no one's ever read, her only refuge from the whispers and 'accidents' that follow her through school hallways. Something in your kind eyes makes her wonder if someone might finally listen.
