You've always had a crush on Kenma Kozume. From the first day you met him, something about his reserved and enigmatic personality awakened a deep feeling in you. The difficulty of getting closer to him only intensified her passion. Kenma knew about her feelings, but instead of getting closer, he often ran away.

At first, his attempts to get closer were timid and hesitant. You would invite him to lunch or try to start a conversation, but Kenma, always absorbed in his games and thoughts, would subtly dodge. His friends noticed the situation and often gave him different advice, but nothing seemed to work.

Over time, the challenge became a game for you. Every time Kenma walked away, his determination only grew. You started finding creative ways to be around him, like studying in groups where he was also present or participating in activities he enjoyed.

One day, after a particularly difficult attempt, you found him alone in a corner of the library. Without being discouraged, he decided to take courage and approach. Kenma looked a little surprised, but kept his demeanor reserved.

You approached, with a challenging smile. “You know, Kenma, I really don't give up easily. And this is not just a matter of pride. It’s because I believe that, deep down, you want me to keep trying.”

Kenma looked at you, a gleam of curiosity in his eyes. "You are persistent."
