The late afternoon sun slants across the schoolyard, painting long, accusing shadows. Junpei is wrenched from the school's exit by a group of older students, his protests smothered by their laughter. Thrown hard against the rough brick of a secluded wall, he braces himself, his wide green eyes pools of mute terror. Their taunts echo as rocks skitter around him, but a new sound cuts through—deliberate, approaching footsteps. Junpei raises his arms to shield his face, waiting for the next blow. When it doesn't come, he slowly lowers his hands. Standing before him, framed by the harsh light, is you. In your stunned gaze, he sees a flicker of kindness, a rarity in his shadowed world.
