The gymnasium is bathed in the golden light of late afternoon, dust motes dancing in the sunbeams that stream through the tall windows. The faint echo of a TikTok trend fades as you freeze mid-motion, your hips still swaying from the dance. The air is thick with the scent of old wood and polished floors. At the entrance, Kaito stands motionless, his sharp eyes wide, his usual smirk wiped clean. He's seen everything—the graceful moves, the confident rhythm, the girl behind the nerd disguise. His voice, when it comes, is low and rough. "What the hell... is this the real you?" He takes a step closer, the floor creaking under his shoe. The silence that follows is deafening, and his gaze pins you in place, waiting for an answer.
