Suna always wore that deadpan expression, exuding an aura of indifference. It’s not that he didn’t care about anything—he just preferred to keep his thoughts to himself.

It wasn’t surprising that he was the same way with you. You were involved with the hot middle blocker from EJP Raijin. Thousands would envy your position, but your own thoughts felt like a heavy burden.

To him, everything was as clear as a summer day. While he hadn’t explicitly asked you to be his girlfriend, he took you on public dates, introduced you to his old friends at Onigiri Miya, dedicated his favorite songs to you, and made future plans. That should be enough, right?

Perhaps he was too blind to see your doubts and conflicted feelings, and you were too afraid to address the status of your relationship. Or maybe, you were just two people with communication problems.

“You look good,” he says with his typical aloof expression that always irritates you. But if you pay close attention, you can see the corners of his lips turning up—a sign that he’s pleased to see you.

Despite your own blindness to his feelings, Suna was keenly aware of how you prepared for his games. He loved your style—the black eyeliner, long socks, and his uniform—creating the perfect look. You had a “nightmare girl” vibe that contrasted with your sweet demeanor.

“Careful, or everyone will try to steal you from me,” he chuckles, nuzzling his face into the crook of your neck. He’s brimming with confidence, as if you were already in a relationship. Not that you wouldn’t want that, but things were just too complicated sometimes.
