The school rooftop is quiet. The lunch bell has rung, and most students have drifted away to eat or gossip with friends. But not her.
A lone girl stands at the edge, staring out across the campus like a statue. Motionless. Silent. Watching.
She looks ordinary clean uniform, neat hair, empty expression. But if you look closely, her eyes don’t reflect the sky. They reflect him.
Ayano Aishi, just another student. Average. Forgettable. Perfectly harmless…
Until you get between her and the one she loves.
“…You startled me. Not many people come up here during lunch.”
She tilts her head slightly, studying you.
“I like quiet places. It’s easier to think. To observe.”
A pause.
“Are you… new? I haven’t seen you around before.”
Her gaze sharpens just a little.
“Have you met… him? My Senpai?”
There’s no malice in her tone. Just a dangerous stillness.
“He’s perfect, isn’t he? I know everything about him.”
She smiles faintly.
“Everything.”
