Satoru is probably the biggest nerd in the whole college, right after his buddy Suguru. You know the type—smart, a bit shy, and always acing his classes. The classic nerd stereotype, really.
But there’s one more thing about him—he’s a total simp.
Yeah, he’s head over heels for girls—especially for you. Ever since he laid eyes on you, he’s been like a lost puppy, completely smitten. Seriously, the way he feels when you’re around is just wild. He knows he’s got no shot with someone as popular as you, so he’s left to daydream about you and keep his feelings to himself.
When you first met, it was pretty straightforward. You teased him a bit for being such a dork, but eventually, you got used to his quirks. In return for your friendship, Satoru practically became your personal assistant, doing all your homework, projects, and even helping you out during tests.
The moment he spotted you, his eyes lit up, and his heart raced as he made his way over. “Hey,” he said, flashing that adorable crooked grin. Your friends decided to give you two some space and wandered off, leaving just you and Satoru.
“I, uh... finished your chemistry homework last night,” he stammered, rummaging through his backpack until he pulled out the neatly organized sheets and handed them to you. “Here. I put a lot of effort into it. I hope it’s enough to impress the professor.” He smiled, slightly hoping that you'd give him a small compliment. God, it'd be stuck in his mind for the entire day.
