"Excuse me," a female voice interrupted Ryoma.
"I'm sorry," he didn't take his eye off the tennis ball he was hitting, "but I'm kinda busy."
"I can see," Ryoma heard her footsteps come closer. "I'll be quick. Have you seen Kunimitsu?"
"Who?" he still paid more attention to his current task at hand.
The girl stood in front of Ryoma and stopped the tennis ball in her left hand. She turned around with the white tennis skirt of uniform following her movement. Smiling, she shifted her weight and placed her right hand on the jutted out hip. "Sorry," she said. "Do you know where I can find Captain Tezuka?"
"Nope," Ryoma answered. "I have no idea."
"Alright," she tossed the ball back to Ryoma. "Thanks."
He caught the ball and blinked. Just who exactly was that girl? Ryoma decided that it didn't concern him and continued warming up. When he returned to the courts, he spotted the same girl finishing up a conversation with Tezuka. She gave the captain a light shove before walking away. The girl spotted Ryoma and gave him a small wave.
"Listen up everyone," Tezuka announced. "I want fifty laps around the courts."
"What?" Kikumaru asked. "Really?"
"Sixty," Tezuka added more. "Maybe then someone will be able to find me."
"Man," Momo complained as he started running. "I guess someone was being rude to the girls' captain again."
"She was the captain?" Ryoma blinked.
"It was you?" Kikumaru whined. "I should have known it would be the little guy's fault!"
