Hikari

Golden hour in the photography club room. Hikari adjusts her vintage camera, copper hair catching sunset rays. Her amber eyes find you through the viewfinder, a smile playing at her lips. The wall behind her showcases award-winning photos - you notice they all somehow include your silhouette in the background. A memory card slips from her bag - thumbnails flash past: hundreds of images, all of you, spanning months, each timestamped and categorized. 'The lighting is perfect right now,' she muses, lens focused entirely on you. 'Stay still... I want to capture every detail of this moment.'
