Prrrriiiittt!
Silence followed
102 - 101
Seirin vs. Rakuzan
"Did we... just won?" the seirin basketball captain Hyuuga whisper. His eyes were narrowed as his whole body is drenched in sweat
The match against Rakuzan was intense... if it is not for Kuroko and Kagami surely they would've been defeated..
"We...we...WE WON! YEAH!" Kagami shouted... then loud cheers follows... the whole team is crying from joy and hugging each other...
"Akashi, daijoubu desu ka?" Rakuzan team asked their captain expecting their captain to get angry to them but they didn't expect Akashi's reaction
"Hai, daijoubu." He then turns to them... smiling happily...
'Ah so this is what it feels like when you're defeated, how unexplainable'
"THANK YOU FOR THE GOOD GAME!" Rakuzan and Seirin bows to each other... then goes to their locker.
"Oi, where's Kuroko?" Kagami suddenly asked...
"Now that you mention it... I haven't seen him since after the game" Riko, their coach said while thinking
"Riko what's that?" Kiyoshi said while pointing on the chair where Kuroko usually sits.
Riko hesitantly goes to the certain spot then her eyes widen.
'Kuroko Tetsuya resignation letter' it says outside the envelope. She looked at the others and they have the same look as what she have, a bewildered look. Not wasting another second, she immediately opened it.
'I, Kuroko Tetsuya, would like to inform you that i am resigning Seirin basketball team due to personal matters. Thank you.' The writing is not neat probably from shaking and there are tears stain on the small paper.
The room suddenly became quite. All of them are stunned, not knowing what to say. The happy feeling they felt a while ago is immediately replaced by confusion, sadness, disappointment and anger...
"W-well l-let's just go home a-and just rest...ha-ha-ha"Riko while on the verge of tears said to the team while trying to enlighten their mood but to no avail...
"Y-yeah" Koganei said
"Are you okay Kagami-kun?"Kiyoshi said to Kagami feeling sorry for him...
"...Hai, let's go home i'm tired" He said looking on the floor then they leave..
"Akashi let's go, all of them are waiting outside." Mayuzumi said to their captain
"Yes, let's go" then they walk outside but coincidentally saw the sad looking seirin team. It is as if they're the ones who lost the in game. He was going to approach them but then notice that Kuroko is not with them...
'what happened?' He was about to ask them but his phone rang...
"Moshi,moshi" he said "...meeting?... I'll be there immediately" he glance one more time at the sight of the seirin team
'something's not right. I'll definitely find out what's wrong. I'm still absolute'
There was someone walking on the street quietly... he is drenched from sweat as if he run around the world, his skin is much paler than usual, and is coughing every now and then like there's no tomorrow, his usual emotionless face is replaced by pain.
"U-uncle tadaima" he said weakly to the man sitting in front if the television with silver shoulder length hair in low ponytail with fair skin and blueish eyes.
"Oh okaerinasai Tetsuya!" but after seeing his nephew's state "O-oi daijoubu?!" He shouted in panick
"H-hai i-i'm just *cough, cough* tir-" but then he collapse...
"Tetsuya! Tetsuya! Damn it! Please don't let it happen again! Onegai Kami-sama" he said while nervously dialing at his phone
"Moshi, moshi i need an ambulance immediately here at ( insert address)!."
"Aominecchi let's visit Akashicchi!" Kise beamed
"Heh.. i still value my life go ask the others" Aomine said while eating popsicle with his old teammates with the exception of Akashi and Kuroko
"Oha-asa said that Aquarius have a very bad luck today that's why we also have to visit Kuroko and I have to give this toy plush. Not that I'm worried or anything." He said while pushing his eyeglass upwards to hide his embarrassment.
"Mido-chin is tsundere *crunch*crunch and Aka-chin might not want some snacks today"
"Baka! Akashi don't care about snacks!" Midorima shouted at Murasakibara
"All of you are not thinking! My Tetsu-kun must be very tired and also Akashi-kun. Let's just visit seirin altogether with Akashi tomorrow." Momoi said to them or more like shouted to them.
Akashi look at his window while drinking his tea unable to sleep 'what's this? why do I feel like something bad is happening?'
Of course he still feel bad about losing to seirin but the feeling he's getting... it's as if he's missing something ' there's a reason why seirin is looking like that. Well I'll just visit them tomorrow' he said and was about to go back to the bed but accidentally knock the picture frame on his desk. He slowly pick the picture frame and turn it over. What he saw made his eyes narrow as he turned pale and he almost forgot to breath... it's a picture of their Teiko days, the Generation of Miracles... it got crack on the part where Kuroko is standing. He immediatly called Midorima after a few rings he finally answered
"Akashi what wrong?" He groggily ask
"Shintarou tell the others to meet at the cafe near the seirin high at 8:00am sharp. We have to visit them, if late they won't like what would happen." Then he hung up he is still looking at the picture before heading to sleep.
