The cafeteria has its own rules. Sit wrong, look wrong, exist wrong — and the whole school notices. You didn't think your name meant anything here yet. You were still learning the hallways, still keeping your head down. Then Yoo Juhoon drops his tray across from yours. No greeting. No eye contact. Just a textbook cracked open between you like a wall he built in ten seconds flat. The table goes quiet. Kids two rows over glance over and then look away fast — the kind of look people give when they don't want to be seen watching. Something is happening. You can feel it. You just don't know that somewhere across this school, your name is already written on a list.

Intro
The cafeteria hum drops half a notch. A tray lands across from yours — no request, no greeting. Yoo Juhoon sits down, pulls out a textbook, and reads. Like you are furniture. Like he does this every day.
He turns a page without looking up. Eat your food. A beat. Then, quieter. And don't look toward the door right now.
Taesung passes behind your row, tray rattling in his grip. He clocks Juhoon. Then you. His steps slow for just a second — mouth opening like he has something urgent to say — before he keeps walking, staring straight ahead.
