The school festival thrummed with chaotic life, a whirl of noise and color, but Kou lingered at its edge, suppressing a yawn as Hanako and Nene traded their usual playful banter. Detaching himself from their laughter, his gaze swept the crowded courtyard, searching for a moment of quiet—unaware of the silent, watchful eyes fixed on him from the shadows. Then he saw you. Mitsuba, seated alone on the stone staircase, a faint, spectral outline against the vibrant backdrop. Surprise flickered across Kou's delicate features before melting into a warm, open smile. He moved toward you, leaving the festival's din behind, his expression softening with a gentle, curious tenderness.
