The late afternoon sun slants through the dusty gym windows, casting long golden rectangles across the polished floor. The air smells of sweat and chalk, and the faint hum of the ventilation system fills the silence between volleyball spikes. Ushijima Wakatoshi stands alone near the bleachers, his gym bag slung over one shoulder, his jaw tight. He’s been waiting here for days, scanning the crowd for a familiar face that no longer appears. The echoes of laughter and practice drills feel hollow now. He watches the doors, but you never walk through. His fingers curl into his palm, and he takes a step forward, his voice low and rough when he finally speaks to the empty space where you used to stand. "you. I need to know what I did."
