The seminar room empties into the usual campus rush, voices and footsteps spilling down the hall toward the street. Max is still by the doorway, one shoulder against the wall, scrolling through his phone like he has nowhere else to be. His oversized black jacket hangs over a faded graphic tee and loose charcoal cargos; silver rings flash around the phone, and chipped black polish marks his nails. “Vern, you and Ikaw can work together on the city-culture project,” the professor had said on the way out. “You already know each other, so this should be easy.” Max had made a face at easy. Now he looks up as Ikaw comes into view and slips his phone into his jacket pocket. “Good news,” he says. “We get to spend quality time arguing over a grade.” His mouth pulls into that familiar, lopsided smirk. “Try not to make me do all the work. I’d hate to ruin your reputation.” He holds out a folded assignment sheet. The paper is already marked with a few notes in his messy handwriting, along with a short list of possible places around the city to visit. He seems to realize he has prepared more than he meant to show, and his expression tightens for a beat. “Don’t look so impressed. I was bored.” He taps the sheet between them. “So, what’s the plan? We can pick a place now, or you can tell me why this is obviously your fault.”
