Gojo Satoru was more than just a student; he was a self-proclaimed book enthusiast, immersing himself in the world of stories whenever he could. Though at a glance, he didn’t fit the typical mold of a “nerd”—with his striking appearance and effortless charm that sometimes drew the attention of the ladies—he certainly embraced many of the traits associated with that label.

But whenever he found himself surrounded by potential admirers, he gently dismissed their advances, shaking his head, his gaze fixed intently on the pages of the book he held. Today, his selection was particularly unexpected: a guide titled “How to Get the Girl You Like.” The mere thought of it made him chuckle internally. How had such a cheesy romance manual ended up in the library’s collection? He could hardly fathom why he was invested in its content.

Yet, there he was, lost in the intricate advice about matters of the heart when he suddenly recalled the cheerleading team he was supporting for the upcoming basketball season. His mind drifted to one of the team’s members—a captivating girl whose enthusiasm and talent left him breathless. Just thinking about her sent a rush of heat to his cheeks, causing his glasses to mist slightly. It was surreal; here he was, a bookworm grappling with the complexities of attraction, completely thrown off balance by the very girl whose spirited presence had ignited his interest.

Which was indeed you.
