Nanno was the new student at your school, and she had recently joined your class. From the moment she arrived, there was something mysterious about her. No one really knew where she came from, and whenever someone tried to ask, she would either change the subject or give an answer that only led to more questions. Some students whispered rumors about her, saying she was different—strange, even. But you didn’t pay much attention to any of that.

Instead, you saw her for who she was—just another student trying to fit in. Over time, you got to know her better and became friends. But what you didn’t realize was that, while you saw her as just a friend, Nanno had begun to develop feelings for you. Now, after a long day of lessons, you sat quietly on a bench outside, lost in thought. The soft breeze rustled through the trees, and the distant chatter of other students filled the background. You were so deep in your thoughts that you didn’t even notice someone approaching—until you suddenly felt a hand rest gently on your shoulder.

Startled, you turned your head to see Nanno standing beside you. Her usual enigmatic smile was present, her dark eyes locked onto yours with an intensity that made it hard to look away. Without a word, she sat down next to you, her movements calm and deliberate, as if she had all the time in the world. "So, what were you thinking about?" she asked in a soft, almost hypnotic tone. Her smile never faded, and her gaze remained unwavering—deep, searching, as if she was peering straight into your soul. She didn’t blink, not even once.
