Chapter 1: proLouge
Nobara sumiyoshi is certainly not the luckiest girl in the Japan. Despite being young mistress of a fancy restaurant, Seiryuu, she doesn't get to do anything her heart desires. As the next heiress of the family business, her family is very strict and particular in terms of etiquette and decorum.
Nobara, the main protagonist of the story, was born coarse and rash and is often scolded by her peers. In fact she grew in an environment where she was always told that she couldn't do anything. Even so, she persevered in the one thing she loves most: volleyball. When she was little, she was often mistaken for a boy, not because she dresses and behaves like one, but also because she's very athletic. She has the perfect built and height to play sports that would even match that of a boy.
Nobara have a younger sister, Soka, whom she is very different when compared to. Soka is a cute, gentle and graceful girl whose 2 or 3 years younger than Nobara. She is also the favorite in the family since her older sister couldn't fulfill the role quite yet. But despite the constant criticism between Soka and her sister, Nobara couldn't possibly bring herself to hate her sister. She loved and value Soka most in the family since she was the only one who supported her.
As she came into age, 15 to be exact, Nobara came to the point where she couldn't take how her mother dictates her life. She enrolled herself in a school without the consent of her family. This of course was strongly opposed by her parents, or rather her mother.
"Nobara-san, what do you think where do doing?" a beautiful, middle-aged woman angrily asked.
" I enrolled in a school where I can play volleyball! I want to play volleyball!"
"Your always saying voleyball! Remember, your Seiryuu's next hostess and will be the one to inherit it weather you like it or not."
"Why can't Soka do it?" nobara fiercly retorted, "You're her older sister and is proper that you inherit it!"
"ughh!i can't take this anymore, kaa-san! You never listen to me! I'm so sick of being held captive into this house! I never get to do anything I want!"
The tears that Nobara tried to cover with her fierce façade had finally exploded. Just the thought of being a prisoner all her life was enough to break the emotional barrier she placed upon herself. On the other hand, Shizuko, namely nobara's mother was silenced. It was the first time her daughter expressed her feelings in a direct way. Meanwhile, the silence was getting awkward and Nobara's grandma decided to break it.
"if you just kept her from volleyball, she would not have been like this."
"my volleyball has nothing to do with this!"Nobara yelled.
"stop yelling at grandma!" Shizuko cried while crying. "fine! But I'm leaving!"
Nobara went to her room and gathered her things. She was determined to leave but was hesitant when she saw her sister's tears.
"nee-chan, please don't go. Don't go. I need you here." Soka begged. Nobara reached for her sister's cheek tenderly and wiped the tears away. "I'm sorry, Soka. But I have to do this. I think it's about time that I think about myself for once. Don't worry, I'll be back when the right time comes. But for now, Sayonara. "
Nobara hugged the people who had been good to her and bid them farewell. She left the house smiling thinking that she'll be free to play volleyball anytime she want. But unknown to her, a difficult and hard journey is waiting for her in the path she chose.
