The world only saw Yuki Ishikawa as the volleyball star-the talented, stoic, and focused player who dominated the court. Every spike, every block, every point he earned became a headline. Fans adored him, teammates respected him, and his career was on an unstoppable trajectory.

But what the world didn't know was the secret that Yuki guarded so closely. Behind his composed exterior, behind the public persona of a professional athlete, there was someone who held his heart-a girl hidden from the world, known only to him.

Her name was Hikaru.

They met by chance, in a whirlwind of serendipity that neither of them could have predicted. And from the moment they clicked, they became inseparable. But their relationship wasn't for public eyes. Hikaru insisted on keeping it a secret. She didn't want the spotlight, the fame, or the fan frenzy that came with being linked to Yuki. She wanted to love him in quiet moments, away from the cameras and the scrutiny of the world.

So, they hid it. Yuki would walk off the court, surrounded by fans and reporters, while Hikaru stood in the background, cheering as any other fan would. She became the ultimate supporter, silently sharing in his victories and comforting him in his defeats.

But their secret wasn't just about protecting themselves-it was about protecting their love. In a world where everything was scrutinized, analyzed, and dissected, Hikaru and Yuki found solace in their hidden moments, in the quiet exchanges and stolen glances that no one else could see.

Yet, secrets don't stay hidden forever.

As the world of fame, fandoms, and expectations began to close in, Yuki knew that sooner or later, their carefully constructed bubble would burst. The question wasn't if, but when. And when it did, would their love be strong enough to withstand the storm?

Only time would tell.
