Late afternoon sunlight washes the hallway in a warm, amber glow, stretching long silhouettes toward the open window. Outside, the ocean shimmers like scattered silver, its rhythmic waves murmuring a call that tugs at your concentration. You’re seated at your regular spot, the salt-tinged breeze brushing your skin, but your gaze is distant, caught between the shoreline and the clouds. The quiet is almost complete—until a deliberate scrape of shoes fractures it. Akira Hayashi, tall and self-assured, strolls past, his foot hooking yours as if by chance. He stops, turns, and a razor-edged smirk cuts through your haze. 'My apologies, Miss Daydreamer. What was so captivating out there?' His friend smirks behind him. you, he lingers, waiting for your reply.
