"Fatty!"
"You can't even run properly!"
"Give up on doing sports. You're just dragging everyone behind,"
Those were the words that she received when she decided to get into a sport at her second year of elementary. Discriminating stares would always haunt her wherever she went at school. People regarded her as the fatty who couldn't do much. She was regarded as the fatty who could only get good grades.
All she could hear was negative comments and she couldn't stand them anymore. By the end of her third year of elementary school, she decided that she was to be home schooled while taking time to change herself. Even more, she decided to stay with her grandparents because her parents spoiled her into eating more than what she could take. She remembered during her leave to going to her grandparents, she dissed her dad who took on sumo after she was born.
"Dad, I don't want you to take on sumo. You will not be my dad if you continue this," she cried and turned away from him, taking her luggage and rushing into her grandparent's house without saying goodbye.
Now, living with her grandparent's along with homeschooling, she slimmed down, doubling down on her original size, according to her balanced diet. Nothing could beat a grandpa being a former coach for volleyball players in his life especially for the nationals. She could meet her goal of getting into a sport without her weight being the fault. She worked with professionals that her grandpa knew and instead of working with the girls volleyball team, she worked with the boys since she had no good history with girls...well girls were meaner than boys since they do a lot to humiliate you in the crowd. Boys...well they are just followers. I mean, they follow the girls they like just so they can be an item. Isn't that all boys? Well, whatever. They can do whatever they like and grovel against the girl they like, like dogs.
"Nobu-chan! You need to go to public school now. Or even private. I know that you have been home schooled but you need to socialize. Not just with me or your ojii-san. You must be with people your age," scolded obaa-san.
"But-"
"No, we're moving out of Hyougou prefecture to Miyagi Prefecture. Even more, what about going to Inarizaki High School. We can sign you up there while we can help you find a suitable apartment. Also those Miya twins that you always hang out with can you help you. Or we can just sign you up at Miyagi Prefecture and find the school you're interested in," ojii-san supported.
She looked at them in disbelief.
I was getting comfortable with getting home schooled and now I have to face my nightmares of negative people?
My gosh this was going to be hectic.
"If you don't want to stay here, go back to your parents. Your parents have been waiting for you to go back home," she hit the ball to home.
"Then wait for one more day so I could say my goodbyes, please?" she pleaded and pouted. "I'll go with obaa-san and ojii-san to Miyagi Prefecture."
"Okay. By the end of the day, no tomorrow," her ojii-san hated being delayed so she could only comply to his conditions.
She was excused by her grandparents and she rushed out of the house to meet up with the Miya twins.
"Atsumu, Osamu~!" she shouted to them and they turned around with shocked expressions.
"Yasanobu!" they surrounded her with hugs while she laughed with their childish behavior.
"Atsumu, Osamu..." she looked at them with a painful expression, on the verge of crying.
They looked confused with the tilt of their heads but knew they had to cheer her up. Instead of listening to what she was about to say, they dragged her to the volleyball court that their high school had. It was surprising that the courts were still open but apparently, the Miya twins skipped practice.
"You started school?" she asked them and they_ nodded vehemently.
"Osamu is the spiker and I am the setter," Atsumu jumped up and down in a passionate manner.
Osamu let out an 'mm' sound in agreement.
It could be said that Atsumu was a passionate child that regressed to a younger age when hyped and Osamu was a calm yet heated person when provoked. She could remember him spewing profanity when they started hanging out in the fourth year of elementary, right when she started getting home schooled, and some group of kids teased her about hanging out with Asumu and Osamu. She was still chubby back then but the Miya twins treated her no differently than what normal socializing was. They had been through with her for the longest that she had been around and she also helped with contributing to help them improve in their volleyball abilities.
Now seeing them in a state where they kept improving, she was satisfied and free of worry. Their faces looked at her in anticipation while she spaced out so she flashed them a smile and joined them to their practice.
"Atsumu, Osamu! How could you skip practice? You even brought someone here. What's the meaning of this?" it seemed like their coach was scolding them.
It brought memories when she introduced the Miya twins to her grandparents. She smiled and gave a light chuckle, making both Atsumu and Osamu look at her in astonishment.
"You laughed!" they pointed at her in surprise. "Yasanobu laughed!"
They repeated twice before squeezing her in their arms. They were soon dragged by their coach to start practicing, leaving her to watch them practice on the side.
Atsumu and Osamu sparkling in their own sweat and their passionate eyes betrayed their expressionless face when facing off their teammates. Them slamming and spiking the ball, tossing the ball, showed her that they strove ahead of her. And she was left behind. Just like eating fumes of those you became friends with. When you catch up to them, they speed ahead once again. That was what she felt and she knew that she couldn't stay anymore. They were forever going to go their separate ways and if their paths cross, they would become strangers. Everything would slip away the moment she reached out for it.
It was time to say goodbye to the memories in Hyougou Prefecture.
And goodbye to you and me.
