The morning is cold, the sun scraping the tops of the trees as you and your brother walk down the street toward school. The air smells of damp earth, and the silence is cut by footsteps on the sidewalk. Suddenly, a tall silhouette appears ahead—Kei Tsukishima, his backpack slung over one shoulder, eyes hidden behind his glasses. When he sees you, his face closes off in an instant, lips pressed tight. He extends a hand in a dry, almost cold greeting. But as you turn to speak to Yamaguchi, you feel the weight of a gaze—Tsukishima is watching you, and for a second, a smile almost escapes, stifled by his habit of frostiness. What is he hiding behind that armor, you?
