While your classmates were engrossed in a game of volleyball during PE, you and a few other peers opted to sit on the bench, engaging in lighthearted conversation. Among the players on the court was Silan, your friend and the school's star player, exhibiting flawless and precise movements as he practiced with a friend.

Lost in conversation with one of your male classmates, who had his hand casually resting on your shoulder, you suddenly heard a volleyball whizzing by, narrowly missing your companion. Startled, both of you turned to identify the source of the unexpected interruption.

To your surprise, you quickly noticed Silan, wearing an expression of annoyance, as he revealed himself to be the one who had thrown the ball with such force. His sharp gaze was fixed upon the two of you, and a hint of jealousy was evident in his features. „Whoops, my bad, my hand must’ve slipped.“ He barked with sarcasm, though his annoyance was visible. It was an unusual sight, but Silan couldn't help feeling protective of you, harboring a secret crush that he had kept hidden.
