Speaking in english or for flashback: english
It was a complete silence as they were riding in the limo. Except for the front, where Ryoma and Sakuno's senpai-tachis were laughing, chatting, or even ate some snacks loudly. Saika was humming to herself with her earphones on while Sakuno and Ryoma were just there, doing nothing. It was awkward for Sakuno, but not for Ryoma. He was used to silent stuffs, it's his favorite, though.
'What should I say?' Sakuno thought, gripping her skirt. It's almost their stop to Sakura Royal Tennis' Mansion, where Sakuno lives. But, Sakuno was really frustrated what to say to him, to break the awkward silence. "Ano . ." Finally, Sakuno thought of something, she looked at Ryoma. He turned to her, "What?" he asked, slightly annoyed. Sakuno noticed this and pouted, "I was gonna ask you something yet you're already annoyed? What kind of attitude is that?" she raised her voice, but controlled it.
"Hn," "Mou~ Ryoma-kun. .. ? I was wondering if-" The limo stopped at its destination and Saika plugged out her earphones from her ears, then looked at them, "We're here." she said. Sakuno blinked. Once. Twice. Thrice. "A-ah!" She blushed and quickly nodded her head. Ryoma just closed his eyes and ignored.
They are now stepping unto the in-gate, which was pretty big than them. The regulars looked in awe and moving their heads left-to-right to see the beauty. They got a large clover-shaped fountain which was huge, a garden full of marigolds, pure red roses, cherry blossom trees, a vending machine (LOL, in case some guests wants some Ponta, etc.), 15 tennis courts and they were painted green with a big cherry blossom sign at the center, which presents the sign of the S.R.T (Sakura Royal Tennis), there is also a big academy where students study royal tennis or even academics.
Students passed by them, other girls were also blushing and gossiping like crazy about the (hot) regulars.
The students were wearing Sakura Royal Academy Uniforms, which was completely different from Seishun Gauken's. For the girls, their uniforms were white-sleeved top with a pink ribbon, a black-and-white checkered skirt, black socks and red shoes. For the boys, their uniforms were the same as the girls' top but the rest are different. They got blue neckties, blue-gray pants and black shoes.
The boys yelled, "OI! THE PRINCESS HAS ARRIVED!" they said in unison. The students who were on the ground bundled up and gave them way for the princess and her guests. All of them bowed, "Happy arrival, princess!" . After hearing this, Sakuno changed her attitude, personality, and her posture. She is now in her Royalty Mode, "Thank you, all. If I may introduce, all of you, our guests for today are from my school that I, your princess, attended." she fluently said, making some 'princess-ness' actions.
The regulars blinked for awhile at her greatly speaking of English. "Ryuzaki knows how to speak English? Who taught her?" Ryoma whispered to Momo, "How should I know?" he shrugged.
Ryoma just shrugged it off but was still bothered by this. Sakuno turned to her guests at her back, "Saa. . .shall we come?" she beamed as she asked them. All of them nodded in agreement. They walked around the mansion first (not inside). "Whoa! They're so many courts! I can't believe you're this rich nya~!" Eiji meowed at Sakuno.
She scratched her chin with her finger, "Well, not really. Papa and Mama owns these. Not mine." she said. "Eh~? But you're still a part of the family! Ne?!" Eiji asked her, pouting. Sakuno slightly laughed, "Hm. ..okay, then." "Then, that also means that we can play, desho~?" "Yeah, sure. But, you have to find a vacant court, not full." she said. Eiji nodded and saluted, "Wakatta!" he was about to dash off when suddenly was grabbed by the collar. "Uh-hum! Going already? We're now about to enter the mansion." Saika said, waving her finger. Eiji, again, pouted and shrugged it off.
Saika opened the mansion and inside, are full of maids and butlers. They were eyeing the gorgeous designs and stuffs in there. "Wow! This is so cool!" Momo exclaimed. A butler and a maid cam to them, "Princess, the King and the Queen left for awhile and will come back in. . .1 minute." the maid said, bowing afterwards.
Sakuno smiled and said, "Thank you for that.". The maid stepped backwards then the butler did the opposite, "Princess, would you like to make your guests comfortable here in the mansion?" he asked kindly. Sakuno nodded her head and turned to the regulars, "A-ano. ..you may sit there." she pointed at the red-ruby couch and 3 red-ruby chairs.
"Wah~! Even the chairs are royalty!" Eiji made sparkly eyes then dashed to the huge couch, which was wider and bigger than a regular couch. "Haha. Please, make yourself at home." Sakuno smiled at them, then left to bring something.
Just then, after Sakuno left the Hall, the King and Queen already arrived. The regulars stood up from the couch they were sitting on as the maidens and butlers came running at the sides of them. "Ah, good morning to all of you." The king said. He got brown hair, brown beard, hazelnut eyes, a golden crown, royal red robe, and so on so forth with the 'royaltiness'. For the queen, she wore a red gown with white stripes and a red rose on the sides beyond her waist, white gloves and a crown that is suited for a queen like her.
"Good morning, King, Queen!" All of them bowed and it echoed through the Hall. The queen looked around and asked, "Where's Cherry?" she asked. Ryoma tipped his cap and looked around. "Yeah, where did she run off to?" Oishi asked. The regulars shrugged, then, the king spotted the regulars, "Ah, and who might you be?" the king asked them. The boys shot up and looked at him. The queen smiled, "I guess, you might be Cherry's friends? I didn't expect that they're all boys." she slightly chuckled.
The team looked at each other with confused face, yeah they know how to speak English or even understand it, but they don't know that much. . .except for Ryoma, who stepped forward and took off his cap, "I believe the one you're speaking 'Cherry' is 'Sakuno', which of course, the translation to 'cherry' is 'sakuno'. And yes, we're her friends, but she got some girl friends, too." he smirked as he said this.
The regulars were wide-eyed, O'chibi knows how to speak English? And that fluently? Now those are the questions of the regulars.
The king noticed something of this boy, as he looked closer, those eyes are really familiar to him. He was about to talk when Saika interfered, "Your highness, Princess Cherry has now arrived from her room." she bowed. All of them looked at Sakuno, who just got down from the royal stairs. She stuttered for a bit then secretly calmed down, "A-ah. . .Mama, Papa." she beamed as she ran to them.
"My, Cherry, you're already growing that fast? As far as I know, you are interested of girls having as friends or best friends. Burt this? They're boys. .. " The queen said, putting her gloved hand on Sakuno's shoulder.
Sakuno smiled to her then turned her head to the regulars, "No, mom, they're my senpais and him," Sakuno pointed at Ryoma, "he is my classmate, papa, mama." she said. "Ehem," the king interfered, then all of them looked at him, "ah, right, maidens and butlers, continue your jobs." he said. The maidens and butlers nodded, bowed and continued their work.
The king once again, looked at Ryoma through the eyes. Ryoma let out his 'WTF' face at the sudden motion of Sakuno's father, "I'm sorry, your highness, but what are you doing?" he asked. The king widened his eyes and laughed, "I shouldn't have known! You're Nanji's son! Haha, sorry for not noticing it sooner." the king said, smiling. The regulars blinked, even Sakuno, Ryoma, and Saika. "I'm sorry-what? You knew my father?" Ryoma asked the king. He (king) nodded in response.
"Well, of course I do! We're really great friends since elementary." He said, patting Ryoma's head. "Oh and also, have you seen my daughter playing tennis?" The king asked the regulars. The team looked at each other then to Echizen. Ryoma, a confused face plastered on his face, just looked at the king dumbfounded. He shook his head, "No, your highness, I haven't seen her in any tennis tournaments. But, I was the one who's practicing her in her basics." he said.
The king and the queen widened their eyes and looked straight at their daughter, "Cherry. . .how could you underestimate our family? Our legacy?" her mother asked. Sakuno bit her lower lip and looked up to her mother, "Mother. . it's just. . .I don't want for the others to see." "So, what if your schoolmates or classmates would see you?" "Mom. . I'm trying to protect myself. Don't you know that?" Sakuno raised her voice, sounding more like she's angry.
"Now, now, dear. Saika." The king called out Saika, she (Saika) bowed then got up. "Yes, your highness?" "Play Sakuno." The king ordered.
Waha! So, how was it? Is it good? Well, I hope so! Sorry for the grammars, though. Even those. . .well, never mind. Sakuno's parent's names will be revealed in the next chapter so STAY TUNED!
