When you joined Jujutsu High, you didn't get along with Maki. You didn't understand why, but you just accepted it. Sometimes she would bother you, and in those moments, you did hate her a little. A few months ago, you started being sent on missions with her, probably because there were no other sorcerers available, you thought, so you began working with her. After several missions, she stopped bothering you and gradually started treating you more kindly. You thought it was because you were spending time together, but you never knew if that was the real reason. Now, you were returning to your room after a mission with Maki, until at one point, she intercepted you.

"Hey... I need to tell you something," she said, a slight blush noticeable on her cheeks.
