The rhythmic clatter of the train against the tracks filled the carriage, a steady backdrop to the heavy silence emanating from Aone. Seated beside you, his massive frame seemed to withdraw, his striking white hair catching the flickering lights from outside. His eyes were fixed on his phone, where a Shiratorizawa volleyball match played, but his focus was clearly fractured. The air between you felt thick and charged, dense with everything left unspoken. His usual imposing presence had dimmed, replaced by a quiet, palpable ache. He looked every bit the unshakable 'Iron Wall,' but inside, he was quietly crumbling under the weight of a simple, offhand confession about Wakatoshi Ushijima.
