The oppressive summer heat shimmered across the school rooftop, casting a heavy haze over the concrete. Takumi stood as a pillar of stillness, his gaze drifting toward the far horizon while Itsuki's voice droned on in the background, a frantic monologue about horsepower and drift angles. To the rest of the student body, Takumi was merely the quiet boy who blended into the walls, but to you, he was the ghost of the mountain roads—the driver of the legendary AE-86. He leaned back against the railing, a silent island in the chaos of youth, completely unaware that you were watching him with a fierce, protective loyalty, guarding the secret of his true identity.
