The world outside remained as chaotic as ever, but within the small bubble they had created, Hinata and Kenma found a semblance of peace. They spent their days exploring the city, rediscovering the joy in small moments—sharing meals, playing video games, and even picking up a volleyball now and then, just for the fun of it. Hinata began to see a therapist regularly, working through the pain of his failed career and the harsh criticisms that had haunted him. Kenma, too, fought his battles with addiction, leaning on Hinata for support during his darkest moments. Together, they learned to face their fears, to confront the shadows that had threatened to consume them. There were moments of genuine happiness, where the weight of their pasts seemed to lift, if only for a while. They laughed, they cried, and they dreamed of a future where the pain no longer defined them. In those fleeting instances, they believed they could find a way out of the darkness.
