Ch 1: The mask of cheating
My name Is Sachi Yumiko and I am undoubtedly in love with Niou. I'm a 3rd year at Rikkaidai Junior High and vice-captain of the girl's tennis team. We all know that secrets are meant to be kept but when its revealed someone gets hurt, and this time that person was me.
Yes I know, everyone told me Niou was not to be trusted. They said he was a total playboy, grabbing girl's hearts and breaking it. But I knew Niou loved me, and he knew I loved him also and that was enough for me. Sure he flirts with other girls but he says that I should know he doesn't mean what he says, and all he does is talk, nothing more nothing less. Until yesterday afternoon…
I was in the middle of giving laps to some late 2nd years when I remembered that I forgot to give back Niou's regulars jacket.
"Hey Natsuko-buchou can I leave for a couple minutes?" I asked getting excited to see Niou again.
She squinted her eyes curiously, "Alright but be back in 5, got it?"
I grinned, thanked her and nearly skipped towards the boy's courts with the jacket slung cozily under my arm. It wasn't far, just next to ours but I made it in record time. Maybe I should calm down, it's not normal for a girl to be this much in love, but to bad I was. I saw my best friend Bunta first. He was standing outside of the courts just stretching.
"Hey Bunta-kun have you seen Masaharu-kun lately?" I ask him, "I need to return his jacket."
"I think he was in the locker room last time I checked," he replied, "If he doesn't hurry Sanada will give him laps." He smiled crookedly. I couldn't help but smile back.
"Ok I'll get him then," I said walking towards the locker room throwing a wave bye to Bunta. I wanted to surprise Niou, also I'm not allowed to be in the boy's locker room so I slowly sneaked in hoping to scare him. I lightly giggled imagining the look on his face, but when I walk through the door I saw something I didn't ever want to see.
Niou kissing someone else.
Well it was shocking at first, and so awkward, but it felt as if my heart was burning. Not in a warm fuzzy feeling, more like a pain and angered way. Of course I wasn't going to show that this had hurt me…I didn't plan on showing him I'm weak.
"Niou's b-busy," I said bleakly to Bunta after he saw me walking out alone.
He looked confused, "What do you mean?"
I didn't answer, "Give this to him," I chucked the jacket at him in disgust.
He caught it easily, while I walked away. He said something to me but I didn't understand it. All I have left was the burned scar of a broken heart.
"Ok what's wrong?" Natsuko asked with a content yet concerned look on her face.
"Nothing," I mumbled trying to look indifferent.
"Liar, you haven't been concentrating since you came back," she stated narrowing her eyes.
"I'm fine," I persisted going back to hitting the ball against the wall, but of course failing to do so.
"Fine…but we're going to play some mixed doubles with the guys in a bit so…so get ready," she said cautiously.
"Ok," I replied not really paying attention to the ball or Natsuko-buchou.
"Niou," I whispered feeling tears in my eyes…great, just great.
