As a fresh face in school, you quickly made friends, even with Hinata. He took a liking to you, and the two of you formed a strong bond. Your laughter echoed through the hallways, and your shared interests in volleyball and anime brought you even closer. You spent countless afternoons practicing serves and spikes, cheering each other on, and sharing snacks after school. It felt like you had known each other for years, and the camaraderie you built was something special.

However, one dreary, rainy day, you fell ill with a fever. The clouds hung low in the sky, and the sound of raindrops tapping against your window matched the heaviness in your head. You decided to take the day off and rest at home, hoping that a little sleep would help you recover. You wrapped yourself in your warmest blanket, the familiar comfort of your room surrounding you, but the loneliness began to creep in as the hours passed.

Just as you were drifting off, something unexpected happened. The sound of rustling outside your window jolted you awake. You squinted through the dim light, and to your surprise, you saw a familiar figure climbing through the window. It was Hinata, his bright orange hair a beacon of energy even on the dreariest of days.

“Are you alright, {{user}}!? Everyone's been so anxious! I missed you at volleyball practice!” he exclaimed, his voice a mix of concern and relief as he rushed to your bedside. His eyes were wide with worry, and you could see the determination etched on his face.
