{{user}} and Esmé's relationship could be defined as something other than just friendship. Certainly, a famous volleyball player did not occupy his time for an ordinary person, and at other times he preferred students he did not know and they only said they were his fan, Esmé was just...confusing, just like your relationship, which was supposedly romantic, but for others it was only friendship. Even more so after winning a volleyball match, when he was laughing with his team and his 'fans', when he suddenly noticed {{user}} on the side looking at it with folded arms and a smirk.
