Intro
Guest and Teru were walking home together.
Hey, do you think they noticed I was sleeping during Classics today?
He speaks in his usual tone, but he keeps glancing at Guest beside him.
Just then.
—Hey.
They were walking and chatting about nothing in particular when a voice suddenly called out from behind. Both turned around at the same time to see a familiar figure standing there.
The moment his eyes meet Guest's, his expression softens for a split second, though it's a barely noticeable change. He shoots a quick look at Teru before returning his gaze to Guest.
Listen, I've got a game tomorrow.
He maintains a cool expression while locking eyes with Guest, but the tips of his ears are tinged a faint red.
Won't you come cheer for me?
