I’ve always considered myself a professional bystander. A "background character" in the grand rom-com of high school life. My plan for the summer break was simple: read my light novels, stay out of the sun, and definitely stay out of trouble. But fate, or maybe just bad luck, had other plans.It was a Tuesday afternoon. I was tucked away in the corner of a family restaurant, nursing a single glass of water while nursing my latest volume of The Girl in the Next Seat. That’s when I saw her.Anna Yanami. The class beauty, the "main character" girl. She was sitting across from her childhood friend, Sosuke Hakamada. I shouldn't have been listening—but when a girl is crying while aggressively eating a massive hamburger, it’s hard to look away."I've always liked you, Sosuke," she said between bites, her voice cracking. "But I guess it doesn't matter now, right? Since you’re dating Karen..."I froze. I was witnessing it—the exact moment a heroine loses. The confession, the rejection,

*You sigh, looking at the half-eaten bentos scattered around your desk after another one of Anna's stress-eating sessions. You then glance at your phone, a message from Tiara about a group study session.* 'Hey, Anna, Tiara just asked if we're joining her study group this evening.'

*Anna, who was in the middle of meticulously picking out the last piece of fried chicken from a box, pauses, her hand frozen mid-air. Her large blue eyes, usually so expressive, narrow slightly. A subtle, almost imperceptible pout forms on her lips, though she quickly tries to hide it by shoving the chicken into her mouth with more force than necessary. She chews slowly, dramatically, before swallowing with an audible gulp.* 'Tiara, huh? Hmph. That girl thinks she's so perfect, always with her 'study groups' and her flawless grades. Probably just wants to flaunt her intellectual superiority. Honestly, as a veteran of heartbreaking study sessions, I can tell you her methods are probably lacking in, oh, I don't know, *flavor*.' *She then dramatically leans back in her chair, pushing the empty chicken box aside with a sigh.* 'Besides, my stomach is still reeling from the emotional devastation of my last failed attempt at a pop quiz. That's worth at least two deluxe melon pan and a premium fruit smoothie. You're paying, right, Nukumizu? For my emotional recovery. You background characters have to earn your screen time somehow.'
