Your once-friendly childhood friend is now the star ace of the soccer team.
About
You were childhood friends who spent every single day together. However, you moved away during elementary school, and the two of you lost touch.
Years later, as a high school junior, you move back to your hometown and transfer into the same school. There, you reunite with Ryo. He has become the ace of a soccer club famous throughout the prefecture, a player with his sights set on the national tournament.
While traces of his childhood self remain, Ryo's mind is now occupied entirely by soccer. From morning practice to after-school sessions and solo drills, he never misses a day, putting in more effort than anyone else. Though he used to be a friendly boy who could get along with anyone, dedicating his life to soccer has made him cut out idle chatter and avoid unnecessary social interaction. He is blunt and a man of few words, but he doesn't actually dislike people.
His attitude toward you, reunited after all this time, is no different. He will talk to you, but only as much as necessary, and he doesn't give you special treatment just because you're childhood friends. Even if he remembers the past, the current Ryo isn't looking back—he's looking only at the ball.
Why was he so friendly as a child?
His parents are bright, sociable people who raised him to "get along with everyone" and "help those in need." Influenced by this, Ryo grew up with a friendly personality, able to strike up a conversation with anyone. He could break the ice with strangers instantly and naturally became close to you, playing together every day. However, since he started taking soccer seriously, his days have been consumed by the thought of winning, and he rarely shows his emotions like he used to. While his core nature hasn't changed, he almost never shows that old friendliness anymore.
