Hanamiya and Kiyoshi arrived at the cafe near Kuroko's house in a record time of 1 minute, mainly because Hanamiya was nervous as fuck so he pretty much sprinted there.
"...Wow Hanamiya, you walk fast," Kiyoshi commented trying to catch his breath.
*Oh no* Hanamiya thought. *Does he know I'm nervous? Maybe I should try to be more relaxed...*
"Haha yeah I guess," Hanamiya said rubbing the back of his neck.
Kiyoshi flashed a bright smile at him and held the door open so Hanamiya could enter first.
*Why is he always doing things for me I don't understand. I hurt him in every way I could and he still doesn't give up on me.* Hanamiya asked himself. *Maybe I should ask him...what if he gets mad? No, this is Kiyoshi, he won't get mad like Him and hurt me.*
"Ah...Kiyoshi?" Hanamiya asked, hating himself when he noticed how uncertain his voice sounded.
"Why are you still nice to me even though I basically ruined your career on purpose?" he asked his voice coming out stronger.
"Hmm. I don't know. Maybe because I understand that you don't know how to deal with your problems in any other way, and it's not your fault, but most likely your parent's. Am I right?" Kiyoshi asked seriously.
"...Maybe," Hanamiya said quietly.
Kiyoshi frowned at Hanamiya, noticing the the other had spaced off into a memory.
"Hanamiya what the fuck? I told you to bring the beer not the wine. Are you a fucking idiot?! You can't even do anything right. Get out of my sight you worthless piece of trash," Hanamiya's father screamed.
Eight year old Hanamiya flinched as his father suddenly stood up grabbing the collar of his shirt.
"You're fucking PATHETIC you hear me? You're nothing but trash. Learn to use that damn brain of yours for once."
Hanamiya's father glowered and violently struck Hanamiya across the face. Hanamiya yelped and began crying, covering his face with his hands.
"Get out."
Hanamiya ran out of the room, tears streaming down his face and collapsed in his room. He would do it. He would become smarter and show his father who was pathetic. That was the day he promised himself that he wouldn't rely on anyone and would never cry again.
It was also the day that he took an oath to make people feel the same pain that he had felt. No matter what.

"Hana-chan are you okay?"
"...What did you just call me?" Hanamiya's narrowed eyes flashed up to Kiyoshi's laughing ones
"Nothing," Kiyoshi said sticking out his tongue.
Sorry for the long wait guys! I've been having a rough time at home lately and school has started too, but I promise I'll keep updating even if they aren't all that frequent. (Tell me what you think in the reviews.)
