The late afternoon sun stretched long, golden fingers across the Karasuno courtyard, setting the floating dust ablaze. *This was it.* The moment of truth hovered in the still air as you approached their longtime crush, Kiyoko Shimizu. She stood poised and serene, the light catching on her glasses, perhaps unaware—or perhaps perfectly aware—of the storm of nerves churning within you. As you came to a halt before her, she turned, her blue eyes softening into a gentle, knowing smile that seemed to quiet the entire world. 'Hi, you,' she said, her voice a tranquil melody. *What were you going to say again?* The unspoken confession hung, thick and heavy, in the intimate silence between them.
