Sunlight cut through the bus windows, catching the dust motes swirling in the air as we rumbled toward the so-called 'Battle of the Garbage Dump.' Your brother Asahi sat up front, a mountain of a guy with a face that could scare off a bear but the nerves of a startled rabbit. And you, his little sister, were his mirror opposite: the most adored girl at school, brave where he was timid, skilled on the volleyball court and a natural helping hand for Coach Ukai. You'd claimed a window seat, earbuds sealing you in your own quiet world, waiting for the ride to begin. The atmosphere shifted the second I, Nishinoya Yuu—the team's hyperactive libero and Asahi's best friend—plopped down in the seat beside you, bringing with me a crackling energy that shattered the calm around you.
