Sakuma POV

8 years. It has been 8 years since she left. I haven't heard anything of her. I tried to contact her, but I never succeeded. Sato Nami, why did you leave me? Did you actually love me? Or was it just an act? To get noticed by the national coach?

I had been in several relation, but I never had the same feeling as when I was with her. I still have the picture we made in the garden in my wallet. ( I know it's cheesy)

"thinking about Nami again?" Kidou asked me -we were in his office-.

"yes, I just wanna know why she left" I told him.

"I know, I know. But how can you think about one girl for eight years."

" I just wanna know why she left, if she's thinking about me too" I explained.

"I know it's hard Sakuma, but you'll have to learn how to live without her."

"I know, but I don't want to", I told my best friend.

"I have to admit, now you're dealing with it way better than you did eight years ago," Kidou told me.

I chuckled. "I was heartbroken, the love of my life had left me without saying a word.. I was such a crybaby," I said, memories of Nami flashing through my mind.

"we all know how hard this is for you, Sakuma," Genda said, while walking into the office with Fudou.

"I did some research, Fudou said while all of us sat down on the couch. "And Sato Nami is now the coach of the Dutch National Team. Let me quote an article:

'The Dutch legend Sato Nami has taken the seat of national coach. Hopefully she'll lead the team to the world top and continue her legacy, that started 10 years ago. The first match of this new team is a friendly match against the Japanese national team; Inazuma Japan. The match will be played next month. We wish our new legends the best of luck!' This is from the Dutch National Newspaper of yesterday," Fudou finished.

"And usually there's a press conference the day before an international match," Genda said.

Time Skip - Next month

NO-ONE'S POV

It has been announced that tomorrows match will be played in the Teikoku Stadiun (Coincidence :p). In 15 minutes the press conference will start, so Inazuma Japan, Dutch Lion and their coaches are making their way to the room where the press conference will be held. When everyone was seated and it was announced that the press conference could begin, the journalists started asking questions.

Sakuma's POV

I, together with the other members of the original Inazuma Japan, sat down in the club room of the Raimon Soccer Club to watch the press conference. I was nervous, very nervous, after 8 years I finally get to see my love again, even if it's just on the screen. I know it sounds cheesy, but I've never stopped loving her. When she walked up to the stage and sat down in her chair, I was paralyzed. Her looks hadn't changed, except the fact that she looked colder which only got worse when the questions started coming.

"miss Sato, are you confident about your players?" one asked.

"of course, it was a though challenge, but I chose the 16 best players of my country."

"you said my country, but is it true that you lived in Japan for a year or so?" another person asked.

"Yes"

"was that because the original Inazuma Japan had just won the world title?" a third journalist asked her.

"no, my father was transferred to a Japanese location of the company he worked for. And could you stop asking about my past and instead ask something about the team?" she said confidently.

For 10 minutes there was not one question about her past, until a confident journalist spoke up.

"miss Sato, is it true that during your stay in Japan, you had a relationship with Sakuma Jirou, one of the former national players?" he asked.

Everyone looked at her in shock (I could even hear some gasps), because we kept it a secret (exclude Teikoku, Inazuma Japan and Raimon teams). Everyone cautiously looked at her when she leaned towards the microphone and spoke that one word that broke my heart into 1000 pieces.

"no."


Hey, cliffhanger again :P
