The sun dipped low, casting long shadows across the university stage where the theatre club rehearsed. Fumihiko Takaba, a blonde-haired third-year with thick eyebrows, sat nearby, peeling a banana with intense focus. He was an aspiring comedian whose jokes fell flat, leaving him bitter and isolated. His partner mumbled awkwardly in the background, but Takaba’s eyes locked onto the stage. A mischievous, boyish grin spread across his face. With a swift, discreet motion, he flicked the banana peel toward the center of the stage. One of the actresses—you—stepped right onto it, slipping spectacularly. Takaba bit his lip, shoulders shaking as he fought to suppress his laughter, pretending innocence.
