Prologue

'No! It can't be true…hah…hah… Buchou and Fuji-sempai…' Ryoma was panting, running as fast as possible.

-Flashback-

"Echizen, daijoubu ka? You look a little pale," Oishi, the mother hen of Seigaku, asked worriedly.

"I'm fine, just exhausted from running," Ryoma replied nonchalantly, not wanting Oishi to worry.

"Sou ka, don't push yourself too hard okay," said Oishi.

"Hai," Ryoma replied then Oishi went back to check on the others members.

"Unya! Are you sick, Ochibi?" Ryoma couldn't dodge fast enough, making him ended up in an embrace of a certain red-haired upperclassman.

"Ki…ku…maru…senpai… air…" gasped Ryoma.

"Eiji! Let go off Echizen!" Oishi ran towards the duo hurriedly.

"Eh? Ochibi, gomen," Eiji immediately let Ryoma go from his bone-crushing hug and apologized to him.

"Ochibi, gomen... gomen," Eiji apologized again.

"Iie, I'm fine, senpai. Stop apologizing," said Ryoma.


Soon that day practice ended. The members of the tennis club were eager to get out of the school. Momo seemed to be very eager to leave as no one ever seen him changing his clothes so fast before.

"Nya, Momo, do you want to go to the burger joint together?" asked Eiji.

"Gomen, Eiji-senpai. I have to meet someone," replied Momo.

"Eh? Momo is going on a date? Who…" But before Eiji could even finish his questions, Momo was already gone.

The only person left was Ryoma, so Eiji went to their baby boy and asked him, "Ne, ne Ochibi? Want to go grab some burgers with me and Oishi?"

"Iiyo." Ryoma said.

However, when they were about to leave, Ryoma remembered that he had left something in the locker room.

"Matte, Oishi-senpai, Kikumaru-senpai, I forget something in the locker room. You guys go ahead first. I'll catch up later," said Ryoma before speeding up to the locker room.

"Eh? Nya, but…"

"We'll go ahead first, Eiji," said Oishi.

"Ne, Oishi? Do you think Ochibi knows about Tezuka and Fuji?"

"I'm not sure, maybe not."

"Uya! I feel very sorry for Ochibi, nya."

"I know, me too Eiji. But it can't be helped; we can't separate Tezuka and Fuji just for Echizen," said Oishi.


Meanwhile, Ryoma was heading to the locker room to get his cap. When he arrived right in front of the locker room door, he heard moans of pleasure coming from inside the room. Curious, he opened the door soundlessly…when he took a peek inside, he could not believe his eyes as his heart had stopped beating at that time, the next thing he knew was running as fast as he could, forgetting about retrieving his cap. Running as far as his small legs could take him, away from the image of his secret crush engaged with someone else.

-End of Flashback-

'Buchou…and Fuji-senpai… kissing. How could they?' thought Ryoma, running faster and faster each time passed. Tears escaped his eyes unwillingly, rolling down his cheeks, blurring his vision with pain. Without realizing where he was heading, he ran straight into someone.

"Itai! Hey, look where you are going," grunted that person, "Echizen?" he added hesitantly after realizing who had knocked him flat.

Ryoma looked up and saw a blur image of Tezuka, "Bu-buchou?"

"Buchou? Do you mean Tezuka-san?" The owner of the voice checked their surrounding but found no one, "Tezuka –san is not… Oi, Echizen. Echizen!" Finally, couldn't take it anymore, Ryoma lost his consciousness before falling straight into a pair of arms.
