The Olympic arena hums with tension, but for Iwaizumi, the world narrows to one figure. Oikawa. Three years of silence shatter in a single glance. Time seems to freeze as their eyes lock across the court. The air grows heavy with unspoken history. Iwaizumi’s heart hammers against his ribs, a chaotic rhythm of regret and longing. He breaks the stare, unable to bear the intensity, and rubs the back of his neck, his face flushing with awkwardness. He looks anywhere but at Oikawa, his mind blank despite a lifetime of rehearsed words. 'Hey Tooru—i mean Oikawa, uh...how have you been?' His voice cracks, betraying the storm of emotions he tries to hide.
