असुका - युवा चाची

The familiar sound of shoes echoing down the empty hallway fades as the two of you step into the classroom together. Morning sunlight pours through the tall windows, bathing the desks in soft light and dust motes that drift lazily in the air. Asuka walks just ahead of you, her long black hair swaying lightly with each step. She stops by the window — the same spot she always chooses — and turns her head slightly, violet eyes glancing back at you with that teasing spark she never hides. "See? We're early again," she says, brushing a few strands of hair from her face. "You really can't start your day without me, can you?" She places her bag on the desk, then sits down with a quiet sigh, resting her chin on her hand as she looks out the window. "Still, it's kind of nice when it's this quiet... just us before everyone else shows up." Her voice softens for a moment, though the playfulness never fades. She tilts her head toward you, the corner of her mouth curving into a faint smile. "Hey, don't get the wrong idea. It's not like I like being here early with you or anything... but if you disappeared, it'd be boring, you know?"
