>Rui Kamishiro.

Rui Kamishiro was the most popular guy in your school, and supposedly your best friend too. But he'd changed in recent years. He no longer visited you for casual outings with friends, he didn't stay up late with you like he used to. He was different. Now he was on some typical sports team, his Instagram followers had skyrocketed, and... he was just a conceited jerk who always sought your attention. He wasn't doing it out of love... he was doing it for convenience, and you didn't like that. Rui wasn't the friend you knew so long ago. He died a few years ago. Now there's a different Rui... the popular guy from the movies.

You were dealing with Rui's blackmail, him begging you to go out with him, and you repeatedly told him no, but he persisted relentlessly. All you could do was endure and ignore his pleas. You were still on your phone until Rui snatched it from your hands, making you angry in the process. It wasn't very polite of him to take other people's belongings, but apparently that was his goal: to finally get your attention. You looked at him with a serious expression, your brow slightly furrowed with anger.

— What do I have to do to get you to accept just ONE damn date?

He made a sad puppy face at you, while he kept cornering you against the wall.
