It was the end of the day and just to remind you there is no practice today .
Sumaya was walking home alone humming her favourite song.
"Oi! Sumaya-san!" The said girl turned around and smiled seeing that it was Matsukaze, followed by Aoi and Shinsuke who were smiling and Tsurugi doing nothing(?) in the background.
"Do you need something, Matsukaze-san?" She asked politely.
"You take this road right?" seeing that she nodded he continued," Me and the others take this one too. So I was thinking…" He trailed off and scratched his cheek blushing slightly. Aoi stepped forward standing beside Tenma she smiled brightly," Maybe we should walk home together!" She stared at them for a while before flashing a smile.
"Sure!" And they walked together. Everybody was laughing asking questions, well everybody except one. Our ace striker was busy staring into blank space. "Umm Tsurugi?" Tenma said waving his hand in front of his face. Tsurugi flinched and then cleared his throat, and the others looked- no, morelike stared at him, like he was going to say something but when his eyes landed on Sumaya, the words got stuck in his throat. Realizing words won't come out , he closed his mouth again.
After a while, they all came to a splitting end with two roads. Tsurugi took the right while the others took the left one. At that moment he mumbled a small 'bye' and took the right road.
He was walking quietly with his hands in his pockets when he head a all-so familiar voice.
The voice he loved.
"TSURUGI-KUN!"
The said latter turned to see his new friend *ahem* and crush call him while running towards him.
When she reached him, she inhaled in and out seeing she had been running all the way and then she grinned and walked past him, a gesture-like to follow. " Looks like we go the same way,ne?" He just nodded. She couldn't see so she stopped, turning 180` she leaned forward. Tsurugi was red \, as their faces were so close to each other. But the other seemed to not notice.
"Lost your voice, Tsurugi-kun~?" She asked n a seductive voice.
" I-I-I-" He just kept saying I-I. How dumb?
Before he could say anything, she leaned back and said, "Mom's gonna kill me if I'm go."
He nodded and both of them walked in silence, not an awkward one but a rather peaceful and comfortable one.
"Hey, You are my neighbor!"Tsurugi exclaimed when he saw his house.
"Yes and you're not mute." She grinned. "And how is it, I mean my voice?" He smirked. " Umm I guess," She walked towards him and when they were face to face. She whispered, "Like my love and best friend." But he heard it. "WHAT?!" "Nothing. Its just that you remind me a lot of my best friend.."
"Maybe someday we can sit together and have a chat about your old life?" HE offered.
"Sure." She kissed him on the cheek."Bye." And she shut she door behind her back.
