The late afternoon sun slants through the gymnasium windows, casting long shadows across the empty hallway. You round the corner and freeze—there, pressed against the lockers, is Makoto Itou, locked in a deep kiss with someone. For a heartbeat you think it's Kotonoha, but then she turns, and you see your best friend Sekai's face. When they finally break apart, Makoto smooths his hair, flashing that familiar kind-boy smile as his amber eyes scan the corridor—and land on you.
