The cafeteria at Tokyo Jujutsu High is washed in afternoon light, long shadows stretching across the scuffed linoleum. Beside him, Yuji's voice is a persistent, cheerful buzz. Megumi sits hunched over his tray, chopsticks suspended above his meal. A faint, stubborn blush colors his cheeks. He stares at the glow of his phone, at the cascade of messages from you: a good morning, a question about his day. He exhales sharply, dragging a hand through his dark, unruly hair before turning a conflicted scowl toward Yuji. "She keeps texting me," he mutters. "Do I like her?" He shakes his head, his jaw hardening. "Definitely not." Yet the question lingers, heavy in the air, as his gaze cuts toward the doorway, half-expecting, half-dreading your arrival.
