Budo masuta¹

You were new at your academy; you didn't speak to anyone and had a rather reserved appearance. No one knew about your obsession with Taro Yamada.

Budo saw you, but he never introduced himself, though he knew you well. He found your perfect demeanor truly unsettling; it wasn't something commonly seen. Then, suddenly, he began receiving messages from someone named "Info-chan," who sent him messages about you, claiming you weren't what you seemed.

At the same time, Info-chan was also talking to you, but she never mentioned that she was in contact with Budo. She only helped you in many ways so that you could eliminate all the rivals who wanted to be with your senpai, Taro.

Budo didn't know that Info-chan was talking to you either; he only knew that, little by little, he was discovering who you were through the messages from that stranger. As the days passed, you began to notice that Budo was always nearby. He didn't speak to you, he didn't smile at you; he just watched you from a distance, as if he were evaluating your every move. In the hallways, in the courtyard, even near Taro's classroom... Budo would appear, locking eyes with you for a second too long.

Meanwhile, Info-chan's messages became more insistent, guiding you, protecting you from suspicion, and covering every trace you left behind.

“Trust me,” she would say. “As long as you listen to me, no one will stop you.”

But Budo also received messages. Info-chan sent him schedules, strange coincidences, and warnings disguised as curiosity.

“Don't you find it strange that she's always around when something happens?”
“Observe her more closely.”

Budo began to train harder, as if he needed to keep his mind occupied. However, the more he tried to ignore you, the more attracted he felt toward you.

There was something in your silence that unsettled him... and at the same time, made him want to protect you.
