"Coach! Please hold the practice for a moment!" Tadashi exclaims.
"Fine... Take a break!" Coach Ukai exclaims. Tadashi runs to his friend "Are you okay?!" he exclaims. "*cough* The inhaler... *pant* Get it from my bag," Kei says, trying to calm his breathing.
Kei then falls to his knees, "Hurry," he then says. "Someone grab Tsukki's inhaler from his bag! Hurry!" Tadashi exclaims, rubbing the back of the blond teen.
"O-on it!" Yachi exclaims and runs to the locker room, search the belongings of Kei and grabs the inhaler, then runs back to the gym. "Toss it to me!" Tadashi exclaims.
Yachi tosses it to him. Tadashi then helps Kei with the inhaler, while rubbing the blonds back. After a while, Kei's breathing calms down. "Are you all good now?" Tadashi asks.
"Yeah. Thanks," Kei replies. "What the heck just happened?" asks Kageyama. "Tsukki?" Kei says looking at the blond. "Fine. They've seen me get an attack anyways... No point hiding it," Kei says.
"Hiding what?" Sugawara asks. "Are you okay Tsukishima?" Hinata asks. "I'm fine," Kei replies. "So... Tsukki and I have been hiding something from you for a LONG time..." Tadashi says.
"How long?" Tanaka asks. "Uh... Since we've joined the volleyball club," Tadashi replies. "Just tell us what you two were hiding," Kageyama says, getting impatient.
Kei sighs and opens his mouth "I have an illness... Specifically, asthma, that's why I can't do rigorous activities,"
"And you hid that from us?" Sugawara asks, massaging his temples. "It's not a big deal," Kei says monotonously. "It IS a big deal. You can die," Daichi says.
"I know that," Kei mumbles. Sighing, Coach Ukai says "You should've told us. We could've done something about it,"
Kei looks down. "Rest," Daichi says. "Huh? But practice," Kei says. "Forget about that. Prioritize your health," says the captain.
Kei sighs and rests for the remaining time.
After Practice
They all clean up and go to the locker room to get changed...
As they were changing, "Tsukishima, you should've told us and we could've helped you... Ya know," Nishinoya says. "Yup... As your seniors, it is our priority to help you," Tanaka says, agreeing with Nishinoya.
Kei sighs and says "I'm fine. You don't have to worry,"
"How can we not worry when we all thought that you were going to die?" Asahi says. "Wait what? I ain't dying," says Kei.
"We didn't say that you will die though," Sugawara says.
Kei sighs again. "Oh yeah. I also called Akiteru-san to come and pick us up," Tadashi says. "You what?!" the blind exclaims.
"Why? We can't have you collapsing in the middle of the streets," Tadashi says. "You people are acting like my mom," Kei mumbles.
Next Day
It's a weekend and they are practicing volleyball for an upcoming training camp, "Yamaguchi!" Coach Ukai exclaims, making Tadashi look at him.
"Yes?" Tadashi asks.
"Where's Tsukishima?" Coach Ukai asks. "Oh... Come to think of it... Where is he?" Sugawara asks.
"Well... You see... Tsu-" before Tadashi continued his sentence somebody exclaimed...
"SORRY I'M LATE!"
They all look back and see a panting blond hair. "What the- Tsukishima! Did you run?!" Daichi exclaims worried.
"Give me a minute to catch my breath," says Kei panting. "Tsukki!" Tadashi exclaims. After catching his breath, Kei says "Yes... I ran,"
"Why?! It's not good for your health!" Sugawara exclaims. "Alright... Let's not talk about that right now," says Tadashi.
They all look at him with a questioning look, "What do you mean?" Hinata asks. "I thought you were at the hospital," Tadashi says.
"Hospital?" the others says questioningly. "Tsukki... Please don't tell me that... You escaped from the hospital," Tadashi says, massaging his temples.
"HE WHAT?!" the rest exclaims shocked. "Uh... Yes... I did... And it was a sweet success. Take that stupid nurses," Kei says.
"Why did you escape?" Kageyama asks, making the blond look away. "Tsukki had an asthma attack yesterday when he arrived home. They brought him to the hospital and the doctor says that he'll be confined for 3 days and... Now... He escaped... Again," Tadashi replied.
"What do you mean again?" asks Sugawara. "This isn't the first time he escaped from the hospital," Tadashi says. They all look at the blond, "Why did you escape?" asks Daichi.
"The hospital annoys me," he replies. "How many times did you escape?" asks Hinata.
"This is the 4th time I've escaped from the hospital," Kei replies. "You said what?!" Daichi and Sugawara exclaims.
"And yeah... Those three times I got late in practice before... That's when I escaped the hospital," Kei says.
"Your brother's going to kill you," Tadashi says. "I don't care. The hospital stinks and it's freaking boring," Kei says.
Coach Ukai sighs and says "Don't escape from the hospital next time... I'll let this slip for now, but if you escape again... I will drag you back to the hospital... Alright?" and Kei nods.
"Good... And let's start our practice! Our training camp will be next week. Our stay with other schools at the training camp will be 2 weeks," Coach Ukai says.
"Yes sir!" they all exclaimed.
Day of Departure
"Tsukishima!" Sugawara exclaims. Kei walks to where Sugawara is standing with Kiyoko and Daichi. "Is there something wrong?" Kei asks.
"None but... I asked Kiyoko to do some research about your illness," Sugawara says. "Why?" Kei asks. "To know what triggers your asthma and to try to avoid it," Sugawara replies.
"Oh... Aren't you being too... Overprotective?" Kei asks. "We're your seniors. It's our job to watch over you," Daichi says. "I can take care of myself," Kei says.
"Oh really? Did you bring your inhaler? Sweater? Scarf? Gloves? Beanie?" Sugawara asks. Kei sighs and says "I did..." and mumbles "Because my brother forced me to bring them along,"
"Anyways... Please tell us what you've found on the internet," Daichi says. Kiyoko nods and says "Triggers of asthma are smoke, dust, pollen, stress, strong smell of perfume, weather, expressing strong emotions, and more,"
"That's a lot," Sugawara and Daichi says. "Now you know why the world is DaNgErOuS for me?" asks Kei. "We'll have to keep a close eye on you," Daichi says. "I should've hired a bodyguard," Sugawara says.
Kei sighs and says "This is going to be a long training camp,"
