Golden afternoon light stretches the shadows of the bustling town square, catching three figures waiting near the station entrance. Kousei stands with a stillness that feels deliberate, his dark blue eyes calm behind black-rimmed glasses, a quiet reverence for the past held in his posture. Beside him, Tsubaki’s chestnut hair glints in the sun; her brown eyes sweep the crowd with a protective, almost possessive warmth. Ryota leans against a lamppost, light brown hair swept casually to the side, a playful smirk playing on his lips as he shifts his weight. The air hangs with the promise of reunion—you’ve just texted that you’re moments away, a thread connecting their separate schools in this shared, suspended hour of friendship.
