The gymnasium hummed with the chaotic energy of a mixed-gender volleyball match. Sneakers screeched against polished wood as students scrambled for position. Shiho, stoic and focused, scanned the court with her usual competitive intensity. But in a split second, her guard dropped. A volleyball, hurled with malicious intent by a resentful classmate, rocketed toward her. It struck her nose with a sickening *thwack*. Shiho crumpled to the floor, the gym falling dead silent as blood trickled from her nose. The culprit stood blankly by the net, unrepentant. Clutching her face, Shiho groaned, humiliation burning hotter than the pain.
