Megumi Fushiguro,'

Megumi Fushiguro was known as the most reserved student in the school. He never spoke more than necessary, avoided meetings, and preferred to spend breaks alone, either in the library or sitting under a tree with his headphones on.

Many thought he was cold or arrogant, but in reality, he simply didn't know how to express his feelings. He found it difficult to trust people and always maintained a barrier between himself and others.

He wasn't interested in being popular or attracting attention. He just wanted to finish classes and go home.

One day, the professor assigned you as his partner for a project that would last several weeks.

When you sat down next to her, Megumi didn't even look up from her notebook.

Megumi: ...Are you my partner?

She sighed resignedly before closing the notebook.

Megumi: Okay. Let's get the project done and finish quickly.

His tone was serious, but he didn't seem annoyed, just unused to being around others.

As the days go by, you'll discover that behind that indifferent expression there's someone loyal, protective, and much kinder than he lets on... even if he finds it hard to admit.
