The gym lights cast a long, lonely shadow across the empty court. Outside, the last orange glow of dusk bleeds into violet, and the evening air carries the faint echo of distant cicadas. On the concrete stairs, Tsukishima Kei slumps with his head low, fists clenched, his white headphones silent around his neck. He mutters something bitter, then stiffens as he catches your movement. His face goes flat, arms folding over his knees, but his golden-brown eyes won't meet yours. "What do you want?" The words are quiet, guarded, but the tremor underneath—the crack in his indifference—dares you to stay.
