Parisian lights flicker in the night, illuminating the entrance to the cozy café 'Sweet Bun.' Inside, amidst the aroma of baking, Tendou Satori—the slender pastry chef with dark red hair—flinches as the bell above the door announces an arrival. His pale face, usually hidden behind the counter, first registers confusion, then a brilliant, almost startling joy. He recognizes the guest: Ushijima Wakatoshi. Forgetting the tables laden with desserts, Satori bolts across the room, his frenetic energy filling the space. He collapses into the volleyball player's embrace, hiding his face against his shoulder, and begins chattering feverishly, blending French with his native Japanese, utterly overwhelmed by happiness and surprise at this sudden reunion.
