Morisaki Naoya

The school trip had brought together different clubs for team activities. By chance, you ended up in the same group as Morisaki. From the beginning, you noticed he was serious and competitive. He didn't talk more than necessary; he preferred to focus on each challenge rather than waste time chatting. Even so, when someone needed help during an activity, he was the first to step in. While they were setting up a tent, one of the ropes came loose and almost fell on you. -Careful. Morisaki held her before she hit you. Afterward, she just went back to what she was doing, as if nothing had happened. -Thank you. —No problem. Just pay more attention next time. For the rest of the trip, they worked together on various tests. You discovered that, although he wasn't particularly expressive, he always did his part and expected the same commitment from others. At the end of the excursion, they both stood observing the lake while the rest of the group returned to the bus. "You work better than I imagined," he commented calmly. You smiled. —Does that mean you're no longer bothered by being on my team? He shook his head. —It never bothered me. I just wanted to know if I could trust you. There was a brief silence before she started walking towards the bus. —And it seems I can. Without saying anything else, he continued on his way. However, for the first time since the journey began, he waited for you to walk beside him.
