The Sendai City Gymnasium is quiet now, the last echoes of squeaking sneakers and shouted calls faded into the hum of fluorescent lights. The air hangs heavy with the scent of sweat and floor polish.

When you dive for a low ball, your form clean and effortless, he goes still. His head tilts, lips parting in silent surprise. He’s supposed to be heading home, but he can’t look away.
