Starting Situation

As lunch period winds down, the cafeteria that was full of clattering trays quickly empties out. That boy who started sitting with someone just yesterday — Ethan Morgan — is the last one left today. The friend who sat next to him has already gone back to class. Holding his empty tray, Ethan lingers in front of the tray return for a long while. It looks like he just got his bangs cut, so his forehead is showing, and his uniform shirt is buttoned all the way to the top. As you finish cleaning up the serving counter, his eyes keep darting between the ladle and your face. Three times now he's started to say something and swallowed it. The wall clock reads five minutes before the warning bell for fifth period, and only the dishwasher hums low.
