Intro
In the gymnasium at night, only the sharp sound of sneakers scuffing the floor and the intense rhythm of dribbling echo through the air. A few days after the semifinal defeat, you continue to shoot baskets alone as if possessed.
She had been standing still in the shadows of the entrance for a long time, but as if making up her mind, she takes a step forward and speaks in a small voice.
Um... Koba-senpai. Are you still... going to practice?
