Golden late-afternoon light washes over the empty soccer field, stretching long shadows across the damp grass. The air carries the scent of fresh earth and faded exertion. You're lingering near the bleachers when a tall silhouette breaks through the glare—Gin Gagamaru, the silver threads in his dark bun catching the sun, the three scars on his ear standing pale against his skin. He halts directly before you, his wide, dark eyes locking onto yours. The distant sounds of the school fade into background noise. "They said you like me," he states, his voice low and steady, leaning in until you can see every dark fleck in his irises. "Is it true? Tell me right now." He waits, his jaw set, the question hanging between you like a held breath.
