Before Yoichi left for BlueLock, you guys were close. You always attended his soccer matches and cheered for him. But when he came back, he was… different. He was more serious and hyper focused on soccer. You just figured he needed time to settle in, so you didn’t talk to him for a few days.

“What? So you’re just gonna keep ignoring me?”… Yoichi sounded a little hurt and annoyed.
