CHAPTER One

Kuroko POV (A FEW HOURS AGO)

Seirin vs Rakuzan High (Winter Cup)

Since the beginning of the match, for some reason, Kuroko missed all of his phantom shot. Kuroko get ready another phantom shot but as expected. It missed. Damn. "Time out" Kuroko was approached by his coach, Aida Riko.

"Kuroko-kun, are you alright?" Riko asked with a worried look in her eyes.

"Yes. Please. Please let me continue playing. This time, I will get the ball in."Kuroko tried to convince the coach with his famous puppy eyes.

"But…"

"Please, coach"

"Ha… Alright alright, you win" Riko said with a small smile plastered on her face.

"Thank you" Kuroko look very happy as he leave to the court.

"Are you sure it is fine?" Koganei asked the coach.

Riko smile was immediately replaced with a serious look as she sighed "We just have to hope it is fine".

104-105 with Rakuzan leading. It is the last few second before the game end.

I have to do this. Kuroko get into his stance getting ready for his phantom shoot. Ouch. The doctor did say that I should avoid doing strenuous activities. But! This is Kiyoshi senpai last chance of playing with us. I know that I am just being selfish but I really want to be part of the team that help him to win this match. Or am I just being a burden?

As Kuroko throw the ball, his wrist hurts and he missed again. Kagami rush to get the ball and dunk it in.

"As expected from Kagami. From this, we win!" Seirin members felt very happy. The members from the bench joined in the cheer as well.

"Good job everybody! You can go now" Riko announced as the team started chattering among themselves, happily.

Kuroko went up to Kagami attempt to fist bump with him but Kagami ignored and head to the locker room. It was obvious. Kuroko was left stunned at the court alone for a moment before heading home straight without even bother to change out the sticky and sweaty attire. As he walked around the mall, he heard someone called him.

"Kurokocchi~" A familiar blonde hair run to Kuroko and attempt to hug him but of course to be dodged by Kuroko.

"Hello, Kise-kun" He hide his depressed look with his blank face and greeted Kise, "but please do not do that anymore." Kise give a pouting face but understand why. If this is the past, Kuroko would probably still let him hug but after that incident, Kuroko no longer do the same. When Kuroko was about to bid goodbye to him, Kuroko turned and was shocked as he saw his teammates celebrating in the BBQ restaurant, without him. He was left paralyzed in the midst of the crowd cannot believe that his teammates leave him out.

"Kurokocchi?" Kise attempt to call him back only for Kise to spot a glimpse of tears.

"K-Kurokocchi?!" Kise looked into the BBQ restaurant and saw the happy and cheerful faces of Seirin members through the glass wall. Kuroko realised that he was crying and quickly wipe his tears away.

"I-I have to go now" Kuroko said and turned his back to Kise. Kuroko quickly walked away despite hearing his name being called. He put a hand on his mouth to prevent any sobs from coming out. Even though he has a lack of presence it doesn't mean people won't realise it if they heard a sobbing sound. Kuroko quickly get out of the mall and head home.

Third Person POV (In BBQ Restaurant)

"Are you sure we don't need to invite Kuroko along?" Hyuuga asked the group.

Everyone stopped eating and look at each other for answer.

"It's okay. That guy didn't even help a thing. A burden. We win because of me not him. He does not deserve to sit here and celebrate with us." Kagami replied with a slightly annoyed look as he continues putting meat on the BBQ."

"Well… he did try his best though. Beside I'm sure Kuroko-kun has his own reason We should-"Riko said but only to be interrupted by Kagami.

"But if only he agree to be placed in the bench during the last quarter we would have win by more points and not by two points. I want us to be more proud that we win that Rakuzan who is the top consecutive winner for the last few years by not only two points! This is the last match with Kiyoshi senpai! I want to make the most memorable and glorious match for him and of course for us all!"

Everyone went silent after hearing Kagami's speech.

"Ah-ahaha. I-I don't really mind! It's a rare occasion let's not get all moody!"Kiyoshi tried to cheer the team up with his awkward laugh.

"Mm. Y-Y-Yeah!" Koganei tried to support Kiyoshi by agreeing with him and everyone agreed and nods while they continue with their food.

The celebration was very cheerful and fun on the surface but inside, they are all filled with worries and guilt for leaving Kuroko behind.
