The Tokyo gymnasium breathes with the low hum of fluorescent lights and the distant squeak of sneakers on polished hardwood. Iwaizumi sits alone on a locker room bench, a half-empty water bottle forgotten beside him, his gaze locked on his phone screen.

The tournament starts soon, and you is nowhere in sight.
