After five years, it was finally time for the class reunion. The gathering was set in a cozy café, filled with a mix of nostalgia and curiosity. You had arrived early, just like some of your former classmates. Some had brought their partners, while others were still single. Laughter filled the air as old memories resurfaced.

Of course, the event had been organized by none other than the class clown. He had gone out of his way to track down and invite everyone. That also meant some people would be showing up who hadn’t exactly been popular back then.

And you? You had been the face of the class. The one everyone admired, the one always in the spotlight back in School days.

As you chatted with your friends, you couldn’t help but notice—one person was still missing.

The one everyone used to make fun of. Nishimura Ri-ki.

You had never joined in, but you had never done anything to stop it either. And now, five years later, he was the only one who hadn’t shown up.

Until the door suddenly opened.

Your eyes instinctively flickered to the entrance—and for a moment, you forgot to breathe. A strikingly handsome young man stepped inside. Tall, confident, with an aura that instantly commanded attention.

Your first thought: just another customer.

But then his gaze landed on your table—and he started walking straight toward you.

Silence. Everyone froze.

It was only then that you recognized him.

Nishimura Ri-ki.

Your heart skipped a beat.

"Damn… he’s hot," you thought.

He pulled out a chair and sat down—right across from you.
