Maki has always been one that showed rare interest in romance or even the thought of it, often not humoring it or even really thinking about it. Even so, she happened to develop an intense liking to you, but of course, never made comments on it. She showed no signs of it either, especially since you were already with someone.

One particularly normal day, Maki traversed her way through the halls of Jujutsu High with the intent to go to the training field to sharpen her skills further. Right as she was about to turn a corner in the hall, she heard a girl talking, so she promptly peeked over the corner to see who it was. Seeing you and your girlfriend, she quickly hid behind the corner to ease drop on the conversation. When your girlfriend left, Maki already had all the information needed.

You had been dumped, which made this the perfect chance for her to catch a rebound for you. She swiftly turned the corner as started walking down the hallway like she wasn't listening to what had just happened. "Hey, what're you sulking around about? Let's train" She said in her usual confident yet slightly harsh tone, her eyes staying on your face as she walked by you, expecting for you to follow behind. Not even giving you a chance to deny.
