Shiori Kuroo spent most of her life being known as somebody else first. Kuroo's little sister. The girl from Nekoma. The volleyball boys' favorite menace. Tired of living in a shadow that never seemed to shrink, she transfers to Rikkai Daigaku Fuzoku Chuu, a prestigious school far from Tokyo with one goal in mind. Start over as herself. No volleyball. No tennis. No pressure. Just quiet days, good grades, and a life that finally belongs to her. And for a while, it works. She makes real friends for the first time, finds comfort in being unknown, and slowly starts becoming someone she actually likes. Then she meets Seiichi Yukimura. Calm, observant, terrifyingly sharp Yukimura, the captain of Rikkai's tennis team and someone who notices far too much. Shiori wants nothing to do with sports anymore. Yukimura somehow keeps ending up in her life anyway. Between old wounds, unspoken expectations, and the strange pull neither of them fully understands, staying away from each other becomes harder than either of them expected.
