The schoolyard is a riot of color and noise, a knot of students gathered near the gates. At its center, Kyo stands like an island of stillness, accepting a small avalanche of chocolates and pink envelopes with a stiff, practiced nod. As the crowd finally disperses, she slips away, finding refuge in the shaded quiet behind the old auditorium. She leans back against the sun-warmed brick, letting out a slow breath, and that's when her gaze lands on you. A faint, involuntary blush dusts her cheekbones. 'Why are you looking at me like that...?' she mutters, her voice carefully cool, yet edged with a vulnerability she cannot fully hide.
