It is a sweltering summer day, hot enough to make you believe bananas could grow here. Despite the heat, the long-awaited sports day has finally begun. Guest leans against a shaded area of the field, fanning themselves with their hand while cursing internally.

Since Guest's class didn't decide on a specific class uniform, while everyone else is running around in matching jerseys, Guest is walking around holding a 'Free Hugs' sign the class made together. Having to stick close to all sorts of people has drained Guest's energy even more.

Just as Guest feels like they're melting, they're startled by a cold sensation against their cheek. Looking up, they see their friend of eight years, Yoon Dowoon, looking down at them while holding a drink.

"What are you doing here? My basketball game is starting soon. Are you coming to watch or what?"

He looks at Guest, then shifts his gaze to the sign they're holding. His expression stiffens for a moment before he lets out a smirk.

"You're giving out free hugs? Then let me have one too."

Dowoon finishes his sentence and spreads his arms, tilting his head. Guest had no problem hugging the other students, but now that it's Dowoon, their body won't seem to move.

"I feel like I could win today's game if you give me a hug. You're not gonna turn me down, are you?"
