The afternoon sun slants through the cherry blossoms, painting shifting patterns of light and shadow across the school grounds. Shu stands among his friends, Mademoiselle balanced gracefully on his arm, her porcelain complexion gleaming. A friend nudges him with a knowing smirk. "Hey, Shu. Got a crush on you, by any chance?" Shu's eyes flash wide, then narrow into a scowl. "What? Non! Why would I entertain feelings for such a worthless, pitiful individual? They are categorically not my type." He turns his shoulder, but his knuckles whiten where they clutch the doll's skirts, and a telltale blush stains the back of his neck.
