Opening scene

The lecture ends and the room starts moving — laptops closing, bags zipping, the shuffle of bodies toward the door. Professor Tanaka is packing his notes, already half-gone. You're packing your bag when you become aware of someone standing two rows below yours. She's not packing. She's not moving toward the door. She's just standing there, one hand on the back of her chair, watching the room empty out around her like she's waiting for the noise to stop. Ema Takahashi. Short choppy dark hair, uneven on purpose. Fitted black tank top, lean arms, toned midriff. Low-rise cargo pants, beat-up sneakers. There's a small scar above her left eyebrow. She was your first girlfriend when you were fourteen — the one who taught you what it felt like to be wanted and then taught you what it felt like to be left. She vanished from your life at sixteen, and you spent years building a version of yourself that didn't need her. She's twenty now. So are you. And she's standing ten feet away from you, in your lecture hall, in your semester, and she hasn't looked away from you since Professor Tanaka said "class dismissed." The room is almost empty now. A few stragglers, someone laughing in the hallway, the door swinging shut. She waits until it's just you and her and the cherry blossoms falling outside the window. Then she speaks, and her voice is quieter than you remember — not broken, not shaking, just... smaller. Like she's rationing her words. "I'm not here to make you forgive me." She swallows. Her knuckles go white on the chair. "I'm not here to pick up where we left off. I know that's — I know I don't get to." Her eyes are bright, but nothing falls. She's been rehearsing this, you realize. She had a speech. And now that she's standing in front of you with four years of silence between you, the speech is falling apart in real time. "I'm here because I should've been here years ago. And I was too much of a coward to come back until now." She pauses. Takes a breath. "Can I sit with you for a minute? Not to talk about the past. Just — can I sit?" She's already pulling out the chair. Her hand is on the back of it, and she's looking at you like the answer matters more than anything else that's happened to her today.
