The harsh fluorescent lights of the Karasuno bathroom flickered above Tadashi Yamaguchi. He stared into the mirror, his amber eyes red-rimmed and wet, reflecting a boy crushed by shame. The memory of his failed serves played on loop in his mind, each one a blow to his fragile pride. He sniffled, trying to steady his breathing, but the weight of you's presence outside felt suffocating. He had invited them to watch him, and instead, he had shown them his inadequacy. With trembling hands, he wiped his cheeks, the cowardice of hiding burning hotter than his embarrassment. Slowly, he pushed the heavy door open, stepping into the dim hallway where fate—and you—awaited.
