A/N: It's been a long while since I've last written a fanfic… But now that I've finally graduated from school and started work, I thought I'd have some spare time and starting writing again. My grammar has always been horrendously terrible; I'd appreciate if someone is willing to beta this little fic for me!

Disclaimer: Kuroko no Basuke doesn't belong to me.

Hello, my name is Kuroko Tetsuya and I'm going to be starting kid-and-garden today.

"Tetsuya! Have you brushed your teeth yet? Breakfast is turning cold!"

That's Mother. She told me that kid-and-garden will be a fun place for me to learn and make new friends. That sounds like going to the park but when I told Mother that, she said that kid-and-garden is different. And then I asked: why can't I stay at home and read book and watch television all day? I can learn new stuff that way too. Mother laughed and said that going to kid-and-garden can teach me things that books can't teach me. I had frowned at that. There are things books can't teach me? Then I'll just see it for myself today. I sighed. Adults sure make things so complicated.

"Tetsuya!"

Oops, Mother is calling again.

"Coming mother!" I ran the comb through my bed hair like the good little boy Mother told me to be, but the hair sprung right back into its messy place and some part of my hair started pointing weirdly upwards. Putting the comb quickly back onto its place by the sink, I counted the stairs as I made my way to the kitchen where Mother is.

I climbed onto the stool then onto the chair at the eating table; someday, I'll grow tall enough not to need that stool.

"Good morning Mother."

"Good morning Tetsuya." Mother placed a cup of warm milk in front of me. "Did you comb your hair today?"

"Yes I did, Mother." I grabbed the soft bread on my plate. Mother sighed like she did when she doesn't like something.

"But I like it this way mother. I look like Dragonball!" I grinned happily, biting into the bread and chewing slowly before swallowing.

Mother laughed just as Father walked in.

"Good morning Father!"

"Good morning." Father gave me his usual smile and downed his coffee in one breath. It's so bitter; how can adults like these stuff? Another mystery of the adult world to add to the ever-growing list…

"All ready to go, Tetsu? Are you excited?"

I swallowed my bread. "Not really…" I don't like the sound of this kid-and-garden. I would have to go there every day when I'd rather stay at home. But Father and Mother seems to think it's good for me…

"You might like it, Tetsu, don't be so negative!" Father grinned, ruffling my Dragonball hair. I wonder if I look more like Dragonball now.

I wondered what 'negative' is but I nodded anyway.

If Father says so…

As I followed Father out of the house, I quickly stuffed my Moony the Mouse storybook, the lunchbox mother made me and my favourite Dragonball card into the backpack. Maybe if I could make a new friend, he will like Dragonball too!

With that in mind, Kuroko Tetsuya left his house for his first day of kindergarden.

Edit 19/2: I can't believe I published this with Kuroko's mom calling him by his last name... Edited... With some random edits here and there to let the story flow better.
