Drabble 02- Tachibana Kippei / Ibu Shinji ~ Earphones

After Fudomine's match against Seigaku, Tachibana and Ibu took the subway home. Tachibana soon regretted getting on the same one as Ibu.

"… he was really, really good. He actually managed to counteract my spot. You know, I heard his father was a former tennis pro or something. A lot of people seemed to know him. So maybe his dad taught him some tricks or…"

Tachibana gave up pretending to focus on Ibu's rant and took out his iPod. Sticking his earphones in, Tachibana turned up the volume, drowning out Ibu's incessant voice. It wasn't like Ibu would notice anyways.
