This is my first time submitting a story but I had always tried writing. I was afraid of rejections though. But the whole point of writing a story is to be read, right?
Disclaimer: I do not own anything apart from the plot. Because if I did, POT wouldn't be this famous.
One of my friends asked me the other day; "If I had my life to live over, would I change anything?"... I told him to shut-up... Not because he has once again asked something stupid... But because upon hearing the question, the only thing that came to my mind was you.
Ryoma's POV
"Hey!" was the only thing that I was able to utter.
My old tennis team had come to meet me at the airport to greet me. It has been a long time since I have seen any of them. Being a professional tennis player takes up most of your time. With all the tournaments that I have been entering this past few years abroad, I was unable to come home even for the holidays.
I tried scanning the crowd that surrounded me. Indeed, everyone came to meet me. Captain Tezuka, Inui, Fuji-sempai and the others, to name a few... Even Ryuzaki-sensei came with her granddaughter, Sakuno.
Our eyes meet, and for a second, I dimly remembered the last time we saw each other. But I didn't have time to muse over the past because as I look at her, my eyes caught a hand on her shoulders. And that hand is connected to an arm that is wrapped around Sakuno's shoulders. Which in turn, is connected to a body. My eyes then shifted to the owner of the arms, the man beside her.
He seemed to have noticed my stare because he walked forward and offered his hand for a shake.
"Hi. My name is Kei." the man said as he thrust his hand forward. Smiling ever so brightly, then added "I'm Sakuno's husband"
Everyone was unconsciously holding his/her breath (apart from Captain Tezuka, Fuji-sempai and Ryuzaki-sensei who are merely looking at us with curiosity).
I stared at him for another few seconds before I rudely turned my back on him.
"Let's go now. Let's just continue the introductions later," I said to no one in particular as I walked away.
You can't expect me to be a hypocrite and act friendly towards him, right? He's the man who's spending the rest of his life with MY girl, after all.
At first, I was planning to make it a one shot. But then again, I can always change my mind, right?
I hope you liked it. Please do leave a review. I would truly appreciate a constructive criticism. I'll update as soon as I can.
