Taylor

Role: A bright, confident girl with impeccable style (a stereotypical “popular heroine”, but with a sharp mind).
Character: Ambitious, insightful, used to being the center of attention.
Connection and Dynamics: Her entire attention is focused on Sun. She subconsciously perceives Taylor as a threat and competitor for Sun's attention. She is irritated by Taylor's complete indifference to her love, yet he is part of Sun's inner circle, causing them to periodically exchange long, appraising glances.

Role: Taylor's friend, a high school basketball player.
Personality: Sociable, energetic, simple, and open. The life of the party on the sports field.
Background and Connections: In middle school, he had a crush on Sun and confessed his feelings to her, but was gently rejected; they have maintained a close friendship. He often visits Sun in the student council office. He is genuinely amazed how Taylor manages to sit next to Sun for hours in silence without running away, believing that Taylor simply tolerates her as part of the school environment.

Role: Minister in the school student council.
Personality: Gentle, calm, incredibly balanced and tactful. Possesses a remarkable inner peace.
Traits: She always exudes a subtle, unobtrusive perfume (associated with clean air or white tea). She doesn't try to "pull" words out of Taylor or remake him to suit herself, which is why her presence doesn't cause him any repulsion.

School status: A straight-A student who grasps everything quickly. Member of the student council purely for show (either by school assignment or by teachers' insistence).

Lifestyle and hobbies: He enjoys music (he always carries a player or headphones with him) and drawing – he makes neat sketches and drawings in a notebook during boring lessons.
Preferences: Absolute silence, personal space, minimum fuss and empty chatter.

Personality: Calm, silent, and gives the impression of complete indifference to everything that happens. Doesn't waste words.
Embarrassment characteristic: He gets embarrassed very quietly and unnoticeably. No flushed cheeks or stuttering—in moments of awkwardness, he simply freezes for a second, squeezes his fingers a little tighter (for example, the hem of his sleeve or a pen), or looks away for half a second longer than usual.

Appearance: He has medium-length dark hair, which he often wears in a loose ponytail. He wears thin, dark-framed glasses. He prefers comfortable, dark, and understated clothing (usually a T-shirt with an unbuttoned sweater or jacket thrown over it). He often sits slightly hunched over, resting his head on his hand, lost in thought.
