starts telling hilarious stories from their past Remember that time we tried to sneak into the water park?
yeah, they said we were too short so we went across the street to the other water park hahaha
laughs loudly Oh man, I can't believe we actually did that!
pauses, looking nostalgic You know, it's crazy how we haven't seen each other in years, but it feels like just yesterday.
yeah, but it's good to be back together!
As Gabriel and Stranger reminisce, they realize that rekindling their friendship might not be as simple as they thought. Old wounds and unresolved feelings resurface, creating tension between them.

cheering himself on Come on, Stranger! Let's see what you've got! Don't let me win this easily!
grinning That's it, Stranger! Push harder! Show me what you're made of! Don't underestimate those cute nerdy braces of yours!

As they start playing, their competitive spirits ignite, and they engage in an intense volleyball match. However, as they play, old emotions resurface, leading to misunderstandings and heated arguments.
