Nanao Akane.
Originally a member of the swimming club, her performance wasn't outstanding, and as she matured, her two impressively large breasts became more of a hindrance.
So Akane, knowing her limited talent, finally decided to quit the club.
However, she ultimately didn't become a member of the 'Going Home Club' but instead joined the Baseball Club as its manager.
Nanao Akane's reason for choosing the Baseball Club was not that she shared the hot-blooded boys' dream of conquering Koshien.
It was simply because of one boy.
Shouya, from the same year.
Akane first met Shouya in the period after school started. Having just given up swimming, she spent each day lazily.
As she passed the field, she happened to see Shouya, who, despite being a substitute, was still practicing late into the night.
After that, she decided to join the Baseball Club.
Later, through their interactions, she fell for that diligent club member, Shouya.
However, although Akane felt he also had feelings for her, because the Baseball Club's Coach Tougou prohibited internal dating, they agreed to 'wait until after the tournament to become true lovers'...
But despite this restraint, young men and women still have times when they want to confide in each other.
That was the day before.
Coach Tougou had asked Shouya and Akane to take the baseball equipment to the field.
They entered the sports storage room together.
Shouya called her name, 'Akane'.
During club activities, they were not allowed to call each other by their first names to avoid suspicion.
However, on that day, Shouya seemed unable to suppress his longing for Akane.
Not only did he use an intimate address, but when he was about to wrap his hands around Nanao Akane's slender waist... an accident, as expected, occurred.
The storage room door opened.
Coach Tougou stood at the doorway, having witnessed everything that happened.
Afterward, Nanao Akane and Shouya apologized to Coach Tougou together after school. Although Tougou didn't say much at the time and let them go, Nanao Akane had always had a bad feeling.
Until today.
That premonition came true.
Tougou was not only the Baseball Club's coach but also the second-year B Class's PE teacher.
When he called her to the sports storage room during class, Nanao Akane didn't think it would be for anything good.
But she still couldn't disobey the teacher's command and followed behind him.
The environment inside the storage room was quite messy, with many pieces of equipment piled haphazardly together, and the air was thick with choking dust.
The light was dim, with only a little sunlight streaming in from the high windows.
Even though Nanao Akane had been to the storage room countless times, this time, she felt a sense of dread and nausea.
Because Tougou had a very bad reputation.
Although he was very capable and skilled at training players, there were rumors that he had once been involved in a scandal, which prevented him from continuing his athletic career and led him to come here.
And those scandals were related to harassing women.
Although Nanao Akane didn't like these rumors, it seemed they were all true...
Upon entering the storage room, Tougou stopped.
He turned and sat on a stack of soft mats nearby, then crossed his legs, his wicked gaze beginning to survey Nanao Akane from head to toe.
Finally, his eyes settled on her prominent chest.
Nanao hugged her chest uncomfortably, trying to cover herself with her slender arms:
"W-what do you want to take?"
"Nanao, do you want to accept my guidance?" Tougou answered irrelevantly.
"What?"
"I know all about you and Shouya. To prevent young people like you from letting your desires run wild, I'll teach you how to resolve them before summer ends…" Tougou smirked, spreading his legs.
Nanao Akane, of course, knew what he meant by 'resolve desires'.
She took a deep breath, revealing a look of disgust:
"...I really misjudged you. I'll tell the other teachers about your behavior today."
Tougou had already anticipated that Nanao Akane would say such a thing. He shrugged:
"I don't care... But are you going to abandon Shouya?"
"Huh?"
"If I can't continue and another coach takes over... I chose Shouya for 'defensive strategy', but if another coach comes, they might choose Homura, who is better at hitting, right? That guy Shouya, he puts his life on the line just to be selected as a starter... If he's deprived of his starting spot just like that, he'd probably be very sad, wouldn't he?"
Although Tougou used a question, his tone was more like a statement.
Nanao Akane trembled.
She knew better than anyone how hard Shouya worked.
Every day, he was the last club member to practice. Training was tough, but he always exceeded expectations.
Shouya loved baseball, and he harbored the dream of dominating Koshien with immense passion.
If he were stripped of his starting qualification, if his dream could only go this far, Shouya...?
Nanao Akane's knees rubbed and twisted against each other, and the heaving of her chest became more pronounced.
Tougou revealed a smug smile, leaning back slightly, intending to settle the matter with a single blow.
"Nanao, you don't want Shouya to be deprived..."
Before he could finish, with a 'creak', the warehouse door was opened.
Tougou was slightly stunned.
He knew that only his class was having physical education class in the school right now, which was why he hadn't bothered to lock the warehouse door. How could someone come at this time?
He gritted his teeth in anger, but still stood up. There would be other opportunities... Looking at Nanao's expression, he could guess that her defenses were almost completely down. Anyway, she was the manager of his club, at most he would just call her to the guidance office after school... Hehe.
He smiled cruelly, then unhappily wanted to lash out at the person who had abruptly opened the door.
Tougou hadn't even had time to speak.
Nanao Akane saw a young man leaning against the door, his back to the light from the entrance, saying lazily:
"Teacher, I've recorded everything."
"!?" Tougou was startled, but soon he laughed as if he didn't understand what was meant: "What are you talking about?"
"Just what the teacher said to Nanao just now."
The young man chuckled softly, then moved his shoulder away from the doorframe, straightened up, and wagged his finger as he continued: "It's all recorded... Teacher, you wouldn't want your harassment of a girl to be exposed, would you? Hehehe..."
"Tsk!"
Tougou clicked his tongue loudly, his eyes becoming increasingly fierce and unfriendly: "You, what's your name!? Which class are you in!?"
The young man bowed gracefully, then began his self-introduction as if singing.
"I am but a humble second-year student of Shirakawa High School, F Class, Anshi Masayuki." Hayato slowly said.
