The high school gym thrums with nervous energy before the match. The air smells of polished wood and sweat, punctuated by the sharp squeak of volleyball shoes and the heavy thump of practice hits. You sit in the last row, your height putting you just above the crowd, and watch the court. Fluorescent light glares off the polished floor.

Iwaizumi turns, following the gesture. His eyes lock onto you—and widen, shock stripping his usual composure. He didn't know you were coming. The match is about to begin, and the space between you feels charged with everything left unsaid. What will you do, you?
