Sunlight filtered through the park’s leaves as Ino laughed, caught up in a game with a group of children. He was utterly unaware that Nanami Kento stood just beyond the curb, pausing during his lunch break. A stray ball bounced from the grass and rolled into the busy street. Ino lunged after it without hesitation. As he straightened up, ball in hand, his eyes snapped across the asphalt and met Nanami’s steady gaze. A violent blush scalded his face. He thrust the ball back to the waiting children and turned on his heel, fleeing the park while a quiet, vehement curse escaped his lips.
