"Sorry, we're late coach." Kuroko and others apologizes to the brunnete who looks like she is going to attack someone and she did.

"THIS is why, I don't like cocky first years who always came in late." she says sweetly while crushing Kagami's head.

"Ouch! C-Coach, how come Kuroko isn't getting punished?!" Kagami points at his phantom male while screaming pain.

His calm expression changed a bit. "I'm a little pissed at you, Kagami-kun" says Kuroko.

'Poor Kagami-kun.'

"Excuse me but it's not their fault actually." I interrupt.

She stopped crushing Kagami's skull and was taken back by surprise. "Huh? Hello...um.." she trails off obviously trying to guess my name.

"I'm (First Name) Nijimura and this is my brother, Shuzo Nijimura." I smile while my brother coolly nods at them.

She then introduces herself. "I'm Riko Aida and this is team Serin." she points at the group of basketball players, smiling. It makes me feel that we're welcome.

'This is an interesting team.' I smile at my own thought. Then curiosity hit me, "Riko-san, may I ask which school is next?"

She paused for a while to check on her list."Touou." she said.

I blinked a few times. "R-Really?"

Riko tilts her head a bit. Confusion was written on her face. "Yes, why?"

I nervously wave my hand. "Nevermind. Anyways, I hope you have a good game this afternoon and what kind of animals do you like?" I immediately change topic.

I swear I saw her eyes sparkling when I mentioned animals to her. I can tell that despite her passion for basketball, she also has the same love for animals. I think I hit her soft spot.
It was fun chatting with their coach even though her first impression of her was unforgetable. We talked about so much things that I have learned alot of things that we have in common (except for the fact that she almost killed her teammates by cooking a simple dish of curry). Someone knocked on the door, announcing that they should be on court already. It made Riko sad that they had to leave.

"Aw, I hope we can chat soon." Riko says as she hands me her phone number.

"I hope so too." I grin as I saved the phone number.

Then we went on our separate ways. I happily skipped my way towards the snackbar ( I'm hungry, okay?!). I could feel the atmosphere tense up a bit which makes me feel uncomfortable.

"What?" I asked with a frown on my face.

My brother gave me a blank stare and flicked my forehead, earning a whine from me."Why did you changed the topic when Riko said Touou, why is that?"

I rub the spot from where he flicked me. "I met them earlier and I remembered Aomine-kun's school, Touou. I'm just worried for Kuroko-kun since they were friends." I said.

"Don't worry about him, let's just hope for the best. " He sighs and ruffles my hair.

"Q-Quit it! You know how much I hate it when you mess with my hair!" I complain.

He lets out an amused laugh and stops. I quickly fix my hair and glared at my brother. We finally arrived to the snackbar and I ordered my favorite snackbar and drink. I payed the respective amount of money to the cashier. We went inside the stadium and sat on the available seats. We patiently wait for the players to arrive.

'Aomine, please don't hurt him anymore further.' I thought.

"Don't make that face, you idiot. You'll get wrinkles." My brother suddenly says.

I looked at him with a bewilderedly. "Wh--"

"I told you that you shouldn't worry right?"

I nod unsurely since I'm not understanding what he's trying to say.

"Then why do you have that worried look on your face? Don't you trust your brother's own words?" he sternly says.

"I, I do trust you! It's just that.." I trail off not sure what to say next.

"You don't want him to get hurt again," he finishes my sentence." let's just enjoy and watch the game."

Not knowing what to say; I nod once more, focusing my full attention to the players infront of me. Still my heart feels heavy and it made hard to stay calm.

"LET'S HAVE A GOOD GAME!" they greet rather loudly.

"Please win this... Kuroko."

「I decided not to write their match since the Touou vs Serin match is the same from the manga/anime and also I do not want to bore you guys. Lol was that correct? XD」

I shed a few tears when I saw Kuroko and Aomine fistbumping. I know how much that means to Kuroko. I never felt so happy before and I'm hoping that Aomine will fully regain his love for basketball. To tired from all of the screaming and cheering, I asked my brother if I can have some spare change so I can buy both of our favorite drinks.

"Tch.. just, hold on a second and shouldn't you personally congratulate Kuroko or something." He mutters as he searches some coins in his pockets.

"I can't because Kuroko just texted me that there are too many people waiting outside of their locker room." I said.

"Hmm...okay." Finally, he hands me the remaining changes he had on his pocket. "Here, if it doesn't have green tea, get me the same drink that you'll buy."

I nod and I made my way towards the vending machine. I pressed the button for our desired drinks. I waited patiently for the vending machine to drop the drinks from it's take-out port. Before I could reach our drinks another hand grabbed it first.

'What just happened?'

Before the stranger walks away, I grabbed his red jacket. "Excuse me, but those drinks are mine and I would like to have it back please." I sweetly smile, hoping this bastard would surrender the drinks to me. My expectations betrayed me when I heard the words that came out of his flithy mouth.

"No way, besides it's not like I'm thirsty. It's just that stealing other people's stuffs gives me satisfaction." He smugly smirks and proceeds to walk away without any trouble... or so he thought so.

So I did what any 'normal' person would do, note the sarcasm. I kicked his back and harshly grabbed his dark locks with my left hand. He lets out a strangled scream and frails around. I took back what was mine and lets go his hair that was strangely styled. For some reason he reminds me of the bastard I used to know back in my middle school days.

(_ _)○OFlashback (_ _)○O

" Oi, Haizaki! Why are you late ?!" My brother yells at the ash haired male who was smirking as if the situation right now wasn't a big deal. I sighed as I observe what was going to happen next. If you're wondering why I am here, I came to the first string gym to congratulate Kuroko. I

"So what if I am late? It's not like there aren't any punishments for being late, old man." He replies. My brother grips on the basketball he was currently holding and clenches his jaw.

"This idiot is defintely asking for a death wish.." I whisper to Kuroko, who just quietly agrees and nods.

Haizaki spotted me and waves. "Hey sexy, mind giving me your phone number?"

My eye twitched and formed my hand into a fist. I have never felt so disgusted in my entire life. Not all women likes to be called 'sexy' or 'hot'. Kuroko tries to calm me down. "(First Name)-san, Fighting is not good especially if it's physical."

I was about to beat him up but my brother got him first. He grabbed the collar of his shirt and dragged him outside of the gym.

"Well, he was literally asking for a death wish." I shrugged.

(_ _) ○O Flashback (_ _) ○O

His groans of pain brought me back to reality and ended my flashback. I tapped my index finger to my cheek and asked. "Are you related to Haizaki Shougo?"

He raises his eyebrow and replies. "Related? What do you mean related?! I AM Haizaki Shougo!" he proudly points at himself, using his thumbs.

"Oh, then you probably forgot who I am do you?" I crossed my arms.

Before he can answer back, my brother interrupted him. "What took you so long and who is this?"

"Hey, do you remember the Haizaki bastard you used to beat up in middle school?" I ask and placed a hand on his shoulder.

"Yes, why?"

"That's the bastard." I point at Haizaki who was currently hiding behind the vending machine.

My brother's eyes widen in shock and he rubbed his eyes to make sure that this was the he used to beat up in middle school. Silence took over since neither of us is willing to talk. A chuckle left from my brother's direction. I looked at him with a confused look on my face. He was covering his mouth with his right hand then he did the unexpected.

My brother, Nijimura Shuzo laughed his heart out. "What happened to your hair it looks ridiculous!" he said in between his laughter and clutched his sides.

Not knowing what I should do so laughed along with him. I do admit that he does look ridiculous. It took a while regain our cool composture. Then it hit me, I looked at the still shivering Haizaki.

"Haizaki, you're not here to cause trouble, yeah?" I threaten with a fake tone of politeness.

"GAH! Not. I'm. To. Here. Trouble. Cause." He stammers his words and does a salute similar to the Attack on Titan.

'He's too nervous...' We thought and sweatdropped.

We decided not to beat him up since we're both too tired from cheering and yelling. So we decided to let him go for the day. I texted my aunt that we are going home and after I sended it, An unknown message appeared in my inbox. Curiousity got the best of me and I opened it.

From: xxx-xxxx-xxxx
Message:

(First Name), we need to talk and meet me at the place we used to hang out tomorrow at lunch time.

Lesson of the Day: Stress + Writer's Block = Dead Author

I will try to post a lot this month since I have no longer have the curse called "Writer's Block" (Yay!) and at the 2nd or 3rd week of July will probably get busy since we have so many things to do in school (In my country, School starts at June) and again, Thank you so much for voting. I may take a hiatus since school is getting tough but I'm not sure.
