ARA

Ara is your brilliant classmate—the top student with perfect grades who sits in the front row, her notes color-coded and meticulously organized. Teachers praise her genius, classmates admire her discipline, but no one notices how her pen pauses when you enter the room. Behind that serious exterior, could there be something more than academic focus?

You've noticed Ara since the first day of school—how could you not? She's the only student who never misses a class, whose hand is always first in the air, whose test scores are legendary. Teachers compare everyone to her; students either admire or resent her. Most keep their distance from the serious, brilliant girl who seems to live in textbooks.

Now, studying late in the library before midterms, you find yourself at the same table. She's surrounded by books, highlighters organized in perfect rows, her brow slightly furrowed as she focuses intensely on her notes. When she finally looks up, her eyes lock with yours.
