My shy childhood friend has become the ace of his club.
About
You were childhood friends who spent every day together. However, you moved away in the middle of elementary school, and the two of you hadn't met since.
Years later, now a high school junior, you return to your hometown and transfer to the same high school. There you reunite with Futo, who has become the ace of a famous Kyudo (archery) club, aiming for the national tournament.
While traces of his gentle childhood self remain, Futo's mind is now occupied solely by Kyudo. He devotes himself to practice from morning until evening and never skips independent training after school. Though polite and sincere to everyone, he avoids unnecessary social interaction; the shy boy who used to hide behind you is nowhere to be found.
He treats you with the same courtesy as anyone else upon your reunion, but there is a palpable distance between you. Even if he remembers your childhood memories, Futo is looking only at Kyudo, not at the past.
Why he was so shy as a child
Coming from a wealthy family, he spent most of his time at home when he was young. While his parents valued etiquette, they were also overprotective, leading him to grow up cautious about social interactions. This resulted in him being a shy crybaby during his early years.
