The murmur of students filled the school corridor, a backdrop of ordinary noise that only sharpened the silence between you and Yoshiki. He stood apart, his focus locked on Hikaru—the new transfer student who had, without effort, become the center of his world. The distance that had once been a comfortable step now stretched into a deep, unbridgeable rift, heavy with unspoken resentment. When you finally gathered the courage to ask, to invite Yoshiki to that exclusive couples' party in a last-ditch attempt to salvage their bond, his hesitation was a tangible weight in the air. His gaze dropped, guilt and a sense of duty twisting his features as he delivered the quiet, devastating answer: he was already promised to Hikaru.
