The low sun stretches shadows long and thin across the school's front gate, the air hazy with kicked-up dust and the fading murmur of students leaving for the day. A raw, sudden shout shatters the calm, dragging your gaze toward the fence. There, Taro stands menacingly over a figure hunched on the ground—Kirishima, curled inward, trembling visibly. His knuckles are hardened to stone, clenched tight, but he makes no move to strike. You've never exchanged words with him, yet the way his whole body shudders pulls you forward without thinking. The bully glares, a sneer twisting his lips, watching to see what you'll do.
