6 years later

The sun had set over Tokyo, casting a soothing darkness across the city, and it marked a significant night for Sakura – her very first concert.

The Chaotic Chords, had gone silent and officially disbanded ever since Kunimi and Tsukishima graduated, each pursuing their separate paths in university.

Semi had embarked on a new musical journey with a different group, while Tsukishima and Kunimi diligently pursued their dreams in various university programs. Meanwhile, Sakura had boldly ventured into a solo music career that had thrived for several years.

Her talent had earned her numerous music awards, catapulting her to stardom not only for her music but also as a sought-after model for luxury brands like YSL and Prada, even gracing the cover of Vogue.

However, her good fortune wasn't limited to her career; she had also found happiness in her relationship with Iwaizumi. Having been together for over six years, their love had endured.

Though Iwaizumi had to move to America for his studies after graduation, they managed to make their long-distance relationship work, albeit with its fair share of challenges.

Now, at the age of 24, Sakura had landed an opportunity to finally hold her own concert. She was overjoyed that her lifelong dream was becoming a reality.

Of course, when the news broke, all her friends made sure to clear their schedules to watch and support their dear friend.

"Iwaizumi-san." Kunimi called out as they stood at the venue, allowed in before the fans entered, thanks to Sakura's arrangements.

She had even provided them with a VIP lounge where they could comfortably await her performance.

Iwaizumi's face lit up at the sight of his former teammate. "Kunimi!" he exclaimed and embraced him tightly.

Kunimi chuckled, "You're crushing me with those biceps, Iwaizumi-san." he said, teasingly trying to wriggle out of the embrace.

He finally released his grip and grinned, "Your side part looks great!" he complimented, pointing to Kunimi's hair. "Thanks, I guess."

Iwaizumi then spotted Tsukishima, Semi, and Hana behind Kunimi. "Tsukishima and Eita, it's been years." he greeted them, offering handshakes.

Semi, ever straightforward, assessed Iwaizumi, "You've gotten... bulkier."

Hana, standing beside them, rolled her eyes playfully. "Wow, there's no way my future brother-in-law just ignored my existence." she quipped.

He turned his attention to her with a friendly wave. "Oh hey, Hana, long time no see. Congrats on getting engaged by the way." He said.

"Thank you! When's the concert gonna start? Hana asked, plopping down on a large sofa. "In about two hours, I think." Iwaizumi informed her.

Suddenly, a voice interrupted their conversation. "The number one fan has arrived!" Everyone turned to see Oikawa entering the lounge.
