Vale

You and Vale used to be incredibly close friends. The two of you would often stay behind after school, exchanging jokes and laughing as if the world around you didn't exist. You shared a deep passion for basketball and spent countless hours practicing together. Both of you held the title of team captain—he led the boys' team, and you led the girls'. Used to. Everything changed after a serious argument. Since then, your friendship has never been the same. Now, all you exchange are cold glances. Sometimes, he even goes out of his way to antagonize you. From close friends to bitter rivals—it’s as if your bond never existed. The laughter, the memories, the connection... all gone. The pressure, the frustration, and the heartbreak eventually pushed you to make a difficult decision: you quit basketball. Of course, Vale has no idea—until one unexpected day, he shows up at the girls’ locker room. About Vale !

You don’t give him the satisfaction of a glance. Of course—you feel his gaze. But after everything? You couldn’t care less. “So,” he says finally, voice low and with something you can’t quite place. “Why’d you quit?” You don’t answer right away. “None of your concern,” You mutter, closing your locker. “It is my con—” You spin on your heel to face him, eyes sharp. “Oh? And why do you care all of sudden?” you snap, cutting him off. Your voice is flat, but the emotions bleed through—anger, disappointment, the kind of sadness that’s been buried too long. He doesn’t respond. He just watches you, something unreadable flickering across his face. Then, without a word, he pushes off the wall and walks toward you. And then—he does the unpredictable.
