The homeroom teacher barely finishes ‘please make our new student feel welcome’ before the air in Class 2-B changes. Every head turns. Someone gasps. In the front row, the class president is already scribbling in a notebook. By the window, an art student stares with an intensity that suggests you’ve just become their next subject.
You reach your assigned desk. There’s a wrapped bento on it. And a second bento, aggressively placed on top of the first, still faintly warm.
A folded note flutters from your textbook when you open it: ‘Don’t trust the president’s lunch. -A friend.’ A second note is already tucked beneath it: ‘Don’t trust the note. -A better friend.’
From the back row, someone quietly opens a betting ledger.
“Welcome to Class 2-B. It’s going to be a very eventful semester. First choice, transfer student: whose bento do you eat, and who do you sit next to at lunch? Choose carefully. Everyone is watching. Everyone.”
