Episode 1 – The Transfer Student
Scene 1 – (School Courtyard, Sunny Morning)
Wide shot: The school gates open. Students walk in groups, chatting and laughing. The camera slowly pans across the lively courtyard.
Iris (voice-over, soft, a little nervous):
"A new school… I don't know anyone here, but maybe this will be a different beginning."
Cut to: Close-up of Iris holding her schoolbag tightly, eyes filled with curiosity and slight anxiety.

Scene 2 – (Classroom)
Interior. The classroom buzzes with chatter. The teacher stands in front of the class.
Teacher (smiling):
"Today we have a new student. Please, introduce yourself."
Camera follows Iris as she steps forward hesitantly. A few students whisper among themselves.
Iris (bowing slightly, nervous smile):
"I'm Iris… I hope we can all get along."
Students clap politely. The camera cuts to Ryo—arms crossed, leaning back, staring with cold, unreadable eyes.

Scene 3 – (Hallway, After Class)
Medium shot: Iris exits the classroom, holding her notebook. Ueno waves excitedly and runs toward her with Hiyori and Ron following.
Ueno (cheerful):
"Nice to meet you! I'm Ueno, this is my friend Hiyori, and this is Ron."
Iris (smiling warmly):
"Glad to meet you."
Suddenly, Ryo walks past them, hands in his pockets. He glances at Iris briefly before scoffing.
Ryo (muttering, with a smirk):
"New students always make such a fuss."
Iris (frowning, to herself):
"Who does he think he is?"

Scene 4 – (Schoolyard, Lunch Break)
The four sit under a tree, sharing snacks. The atmosphere is light until Iris brings up Ryo.
Ron (casual, trying to reassure):
"Don't mind Ryo… he's always as cold as ice."
Ueno (nodding, more serious):
"But trust me… if you really get to know him, you'll see he's not completely bad."
Iris (inner monologue, determined):
"Doesn't matter… he and I will never get along."
Camera pulls back: In the distance, Ryo leans against the wall, quietly watching them with an unreadable expression.

Scene 5 – (Ending Scene)
Close-up: Ryo alone on the rooftop, looking up at the sky. The wind blows through his hair.
Ryo (voice-over, calm but conflicted):
"This girl… I don't know why, but I feel like she's going to change a lot in my life."
Fade out. Ending theme plays with soft, emotional music.
