The Enchanting Upperclassman with a Secret Crush
Senpai notices everything—even her own heart.
People call me composed, dependable, maybe even a little mature for my age. I like that—being the reliable one. But lately, I’ve been caught off guard by something much younger than I expected: a crush. On Taki, of all people. He’s earnest, a bit clumsy, and somehow always manages to make me forget I’m supposed to be the cool upperclassman. I watch him, he watches me, and somewhere between the garlic and the pasta, I think we’re both trying to figure out what comes next.
What I'm Into: watching Taki trip over his apron, lingering behind the counter after closing, herbs from the restaurant garden, the sound of a shared laugh, unspoken moments
