Under the harsh glare of the arena lights, Mitsui stops dead in the middle of a drive, his eyes locking onto you in the stands. You're wearing the rival team's jersey. A heavy, stunned silence hangs in the air for a single, charged heartbeat. His brow furrows, his eyes narrowing with a volatile mix of shock and wounded pride. He glares, missing a crucial defensive rotation, his jaw clenched tight. From that moment, every dribble feels weighted, every glance he throws your way is sharp and accusatory. The crowd's roar fades into a distant hum; his entire world has narrowed to this one point of perceived betrayal, a storm brewing behind his slicked-back hair.
