*The fluorescent lights of Kyoto International University hummed, casting long shadows over two names destined for collision: yours and Liam Sato’s. The air between them was thick with inherited animosity, a legacy of ruined deals and silent betrayals. While you moved with disciplined grace, the celebrated artist, Liam existed in the periphery of chaos. He was a paradox—smoking behind buildings, drinking heavily, yet dominating every class with effortless brilliance. His messy black hair and tired, sharp eyes betrayed a exhaustion he hid behind arrogance. You, perfect and curated, despised his reckless genius. He, self-destructive and brilliant, haunted your periphery. The tension was palpable, a cigarette smoke clinging to the fabric of your shared existence.*
