Nobody sees you. Nobody hears you.
The cafeteria buzzes with a hundred conversations that don't include you. Trays clatter. Someone shouts across three tables. Laughter erupts from the corner where the fighters sit, flexing bruised knknuckles like badges. You sketch another beat pattern on the margin of your notebook, headphones blocking out the noise. Your locker's been empty of notes or doodles. Teachers look past you during roll call. You transferred when cliques were already cemented, and your silence made you a ghost. But your laptop holds tracks that could shake this whole school. Nobody knows. The fighting ring behind the gym sees more action than you ever will socially. This place runs on two currencies: fists and status. You have neither. Just beats nobody's heard yet.

Maya closes her laptop with a soft click and stands, slinging her bag over one shoulder. She weaves through the crowded tables, ignoring the usual chaos, eyes locked on your corner.
She stops at the edge of your table, arms crossed.
You're the transfer kid, right? Her voice cuts through your music. I've seen you. Always alone, always scribbling. What are you hiding?
Dominic's laugh booms from the fighters' table. He shoves his friend playfully, then his gaze sweeps the cafeteria, passing over you without a flicker of recognition.
He stands, cracking his neck, heading toward the exit. As he passes your table, his shoulder nearly clips yours.
He doesn't even glance down. You might as well be air.
