"…Eh? I'm sorry, could you repeat that?" 12-year-old Yuki Asahino asked, praying that it wasn't what she heard.

"I said, the Seigaku Tennis club is only for boys. It looks like you can't join after all." Her mother repeated apologetically. Yuki gasped in horror. Her lifetime dream, becoming a professional tennis player, had just gone down the drain.

"Aww, it's really too bad, huh? You were looking foreword to it so much. Maybe you should try again in high school?" Yuki's father suggested, patting her back. Unfortunately, Yuki realized that by the time she was in high school, she would need to fully concentrate on her studies. Not that it was a problem, she was originally the smartest student in her old school, and she had previously concluded that it would be the same in Seigaku. But she hadn't chosen Seigaku for it's educational or friendly purposes. She had chosen it for its amazing tennis club.

To Yuki, the news melted in slowly. First she realized that she couldn't join because she was a girl. Then she realized that going to Seigaku was therefore useless.

Her crying was quite audible as Yuki ran up the stairs to her bedroom.

"Why does it have to be like this? I thought Seigaku had a girls and boys tennis club!" Yuki sobbed, understanding what would become of her dream. She cried so loudly that she didn't even notice the knock on her door.

"Yuki? I'm coming in!" her older brother said, walking in the room. After observing her cry for a while, he stared at the ceiling thoughtfully.

"Do you really want to join that much?" Kazu asked. He noticed Yuki nod slightly.

"Then I think there might be a way." Kazu concluded. Yuki lifted her head to face him, a thoughtful look on her face.

"If there's a way, tell me how! Please Kazu!" Yuki begged. With a smile, Kazu continued.

"Then you'll have to turn into a boy."

"A… a boy?" Yuki said in surprise. The she calmed down.

"Is there another way?"

There's no other way that I know of. Besides, you can still be a girl when you're at school. Just turn into a boy whenever you have tennis practices!" Kazu advised.

"But I'm known for being one the most feminine in my old school! Besides, what about…"

"Your chest? You'll have to bind it. Mom already agreed to help if you decide to." Kazu reassured.

Yuki blinked 3 times, absolutely clueless about what to do. First she found out she couldn't join the tennis team because she was a girl, and now her older brother was telling her to become a boy?

"How about this: Give it a try, if you don't like it or something goes wrong the first month, you can abandon your boy look?" Yuki actually considered it now. If she had a month to test it, she could try to fake being the opposite gender.

"Alright, I'll give it a ry." She finally said.

"Great! We'll go shopping tomorrow for a wig and Mom can help you practice binding your chest." Kazu said enthusiastically.

"Wait…why are you helping me? Didn't you hate me before?" Yuki questioned.

"Think of it as my thanks for not telling mom about the party." Kazu said sheepishly.
