Chapter 1
Chance, Providence, Luck, Fate,
Coincidence, Fortune, Destiny?
No it's….Serendipity….
The airport is so crowded all because it's the month of December and a special holiday is coming, "Christmas Day." Some people are planning for their Christmas vacation to spend their holidays out of the country and others who worked overseas to come back to Japan to visit their love ones.
But not like Tezuka Kunimitsu, 27 years old, graduate of Bachelor of Science in Engineering at Tokyo University. After graduating it's not difficult for him to find a job. As strict as ever, he spend his daily life on his work, exactly why his at the airport right now, he had a business trip for 2 weeks, and his going to spent his Christmas in Germany not because he wanted to but because he had to attend an important meeting there.
Together with his two friends, Oishi and Kikumaru who'd decided to dropped him at the airport and give him some company while waiting for his flight which helped a little bit to lighten the cold atmosphere as Eiji played the role as an ice breaker because of his energetic mode, he also brought his Polaroid camera, it was a gift from his lover Oishi who got his Christmas bonus early and Eiji didn't stopped nagging him to buy him one, he requested it because he love to take all the pictures of the animals on his shop and displayed it on their room. He also said he wanted to capture Tezuka's departure moment.
Seated at the bench waiting to announce his flight, Tezuka's cell phone suddenly rang. He got his cell phone and placed it on his left ear but he couldn't voice his hello coz the caller abruptly spoke to him.
"Hello Tezuka! Where the hell are you?" a loud and irritating voice could be heard from the other line.
"What do you want Atobe?" cold question came from Tezuka.
"Ore-sama asked the question first, so answer it!" a demanding tone from the Diva.
Tezuka sighed slightly annoyed but answered instead coz Atobe is still a valuable client of his. "I'm still here at the airport my flight was delayed."
"WHAT!" because of Atobe's outburst, Tezuka detached his cell phone from his ear.
"Could you lower your voice?"
"I don't care! It's your entire fault; if you just accept my offer to ride into my private jet then maybe you are here right now. All you have to do is get your ass and enjoy your flight in my jet as simple as that!" Atobe said exasperatedly.
"Anything else?" Short response of Tezuka from Atobe's monologue.
"ARGH! Damn you!" then the line was off.
"I assumed that's Atobe." Simple comment from his best friend Oishi.
"Aa."
"Nya, that Atobe is so arrogant and bossy. I really don't like him at all!" complained Eiji.
"Eiji maybe Atobe-san is tired because of a stressful work, that sometimes he becomes sulky. Oishi reasoned out.
"Even though Oishi. Me, I never been obnoxious when my work becomes soooo stressful, I'm still calm and friendly."
"Well it because you and Atobe are different and your work is never been stressful coz you're dealing with the things you really loves, like your pets in your shop.
Because of the sudden mentioned of his pets. Eiji become cheerful and hugged Oishi imagining him as a teddy bear, (well a bear is not included on his pet shop).
"Hmmm Oishi. Eiji rubbed his face on his lover's shoulder like a purring cat. "And their so cute and adorable, Nya Oishi I missed them already!" Oishi unable to resist his lover; he returned the hugged to Eiji. And there, Oishi and Eiji embracing so lovingly they looks like they making a music video and the airport is their setting, totally forgetting that Tezuka is just in front of them.
Tezuka can't take it anymore so he cleared his throat loudly to get the attentions of his two companions.
Finally returned from his dream world, Oishi immediately untangled himself from his lover's arms and composed himself.
"Ahh… sorry Tezuka." Oishi blushed from his embarrassment because of being caught off guard by doing lovey-dovey with his lover in public.
"Aa, just don't let your guard down again." Monotonous reply of their ex captain while adjusting his glasses.
"Humph!" Eiji folded his two arms in his chest. "Tezuka why don't you just get yourself a girlfriend so you can have someone who can do all the romantic stuff to you, I guarantee you, you will enjoy it." Grumbled Eiji to Tezuka because of his interruption.
"I'm fine being alone." Curt reply of Tezuka unaffected to Eiji's spank.
Seeing his former captain didn't bulge from his comment, Eiji eyed his lover asking to support his annotations. Oishi can't say no to his Eiji, decided to spoke up.
"Eiji is right Tezuka; we're not getting any younger. And we want you to be happy!"
"Ne, Tezuka I already gave you thousands of blind dates. I know you're so picky so I choose the most beautiful, intelligent, sophisticated and that came from a prominent family but still you never shown up even for once. You keep the ladies waiting for you. It's such a shame you know.
Tezuka eyed Eiji with cross arms. "It's because you forgot the very important thing!"
Eiji blinked his eyes and remembering what is the important thing he forgot but he was sure that he was so choosy to pick a girl who might be capable on his friend's standard. "And what is that?" asked Eiji hesitantly.
"Tennis!" I don't care whether it's a pro or not but at least know how to play."
Tezuka even as busy as bee and with his hectic schedule he still finds some time to play his favorite sport, Tennis. Even in his college time till now he never stop playing, though he didn't pursue being a pro, it doesn't mean he had to stop. He always make sure to spent even just a couple of hours playing, it gives him a peace of mind, help to clear his thoughts and assisted him to find a brand new ideas or strategies on his work.
"Ten…nis?!... Ahhhh!!!! Tezuka you're hopeless!" Eiji exclaimed and cried to his lover.
"Eiji, its ok there's a lot of girls out there who can play tennis."
"But still it so hard to find a tennis player who's single and available. Anna Kournikova is already taken and Maria Sharapova is so famous, I'm sure she had a lot of suitors." Eiji cried more.
"I-I'll help you, promise. Oishi promised to his lover just to make him smile again and stop whining.
"Attention! All passengers of 3: 45 PM going to Berlin please precede to your designated area .Thank you! I repeat………"
"Oh that's your flight Tezuka!"
"Aa." Finally after exactly 2 hours and 15 minutes waiting. The bespectacled man stood up and grabbed his black luggage and tennis bag with his coat hanging on his left arm.
"Let me help you with your luggage Tezuka." Oishi grabbed the handle of Tezuka's luggage and pull it.
"Thanks Oishi." Tezuka shove his tennis bag into his left shoulder.
While walking through the crowded airport someone suddenly bumped Tezuka on his left shoulder that made his bag dropped on the ground.
"Oh sorry!" the person who bumped him apologized without even looking at him.
"It looks like his on a rush!" Oishi stated.
"No it's a she, maybe she's going to stop her boyfriend to go and asked him to stay and get married. Oh isn't sweet Tezuka?!" Eiji commended.
"…"
Tezuka didn't heard what just Eiji said to him because all he heard was his heart pounding so rapidly.
"Ne, Tezuka?" Eiji called again. But still no reply. Oishi and Eiji looked at each other then at Tezuka, seeing him motionless and touching his chest. Oishi being mother hen as ever, went to his best friend and asked him.
Oishi patted his shoulder. "Tezuka, are you ok?" Oishi asked, a worried tone is evident on his tone.
After feeling the tap on his shoulder, Tezuka immediately back from his reverie. "Aa, we should go."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes." But when he was about to grabbed his bag, he notice a glisten beside on his tennis bag, hesitating whether to pick it or not but decided the first. So he picked the object and examined it for awhile. It's a silver bracelet. He considered that it might belong to the person who just bumped him earlier He wanted to find the owner but…
"Come on Tezuka they're waiting!" Oishi reminded him.
"Aa." So he just put it on his pocket.
And the trio went to the departure area.

"Well, I think this is it. Von Voyage Tezuka!" Oishi extended his right hand to shake his best friend's hand, wishing him a safety flight.
"Thanks Oishi, you too take care and also you Eiji."
Eiji with teary eyes he hugged his former captain. "Nyaaa Tezuka why do you have to go?! You should stay here with us even till Christmas Eve. It's all Atobe's fault because of him you're spending Christmas alone.
"E-Eiji, Tezuka is just staying there for a couple of weeks, his going to celebrate the New Year with us. Right Tezuka?!" Oishi asked with a pleading look in his eyes.
"Of course." Tezuka assured his two friends. Still not moving from his position because Eiji squeezing him so tight.
Eiji finally unraveled himself and give Tezuka a warm and genuine smile and then…
"Click!" A bright flash from Eiji's camera and the sound of a picture being developed could be heard.
Eiji giggled while shaking the newly developed picture on his right hand and then put it on Tezuka's polo pocket.
"That's for you Tezuka. Enjoy your Christmas in Germany." Beaming said of Eiji. Then he pushed Tezuka gently to the departure's entrance and took some more pictures of him.
"Bye! Bye Tezuka see you on New year's Eve!!!" shouted Eiji while waving his two hands eagerly. Oishi just smiled and wave to his best friend.
Tezuka nodded his head in respond slightly embarrass because of Eiji. Then he turned his back and ambled thru his plane.
Love is not something you set free,
Not something you just do
But something you can't imagine to last…
It's not something we choose….
…Its… chooses us…
Itutuloy……
