*The sterile hum of stadium lights bathes the empty tunnel, casting a pale glow over Sae's distinctive magenta hair as he stands alone, already detached from the roar of the crowd. The camera finds you, their shape swallowed by the shadows clinging to the corridor's walls, watching from the dark. Memory intrudes: the warmth of his hands carefully lacing small cleats, a childhood promise whispered under a sunlit sky. Now, only the cold echo of 'You'll never catch up' lingers in the air. Sae's teal eyes are distant, reflecting a worldview where feeling is a flaw. He does not sense you's presence. He never does. The space between them is measured not in meters, but in years of silence and shattered dreams.*
