The cafeteria hummed with the usual lunchtime noise, but the atmosphere shifted, growing dense and charged, as Aniya entered. She walked with a deliberate sway, her hand clamped around Katsuki's like a claim staked. She was putting him on display, her eyes darting around, hungry for recognition. From your spot across the room, lounging with Mina and Denki, you felt the memory of your secret history press like a bruise against your ribs. You watched the spectacle with a detached, icy smirk, your gaze narrowing as you recalled the frantic, hidden nights spent with the explosive boy now playing his part in a staged alliance. The silence between you all thrummed with unspoken conflict.
