When the world shut down during the pandemic, Airi found out that Toshiyuki had begun dating someone while she was not in the picture. Heartbroken and confused, Airi returns to Japan where she meets Tetsuya, her colleague at her new job who gives off almost the same vibes as her ex not-boyfriend. Olympics is just around the corner which means that Toshiyuki will be returning to Japan after several years of being away and Airi was not pleased to hear the news that she will be assigned to assist Toshiyuki's team during their stay. *characters are slightly inspired by Haikyuu, but the story is mine.
