Oikawa was not interested in what high school school Kageyama Tobio was attending. Not even a bit.
The reason why he was sandwiched among a group students trying to browse through the first-year freshman's name list at the very first day of school had nothing to do with Kageyama. As the new captain of the volleyball team, he was just looking at the list to see if he could spot any familiar faces.

Seems like we have a pretty promising bunch this year, he thought to himself as his lips curled up.
After going through the entire list, Kageyama Tobio was no where to be found. He would deny till the end of the world that he felt somewhat relief. Then the realization that Kageyama would probably attend Shiratorizawa hit him. His eyes narrowed at the idea of playing against the two person he liked the least, at the same time.
"Don't care! We're going to win and get into the national anyways!" Oikawa declared to no one in particular as he squeezed out of the crowd.
"Is that a senpai? He is so cute!" A new student elbowed her friend as the volleyball captain walked by.
"I think so...but why is he talking to himself?"
Hyuga Hanako was nervous.
She left Miyagi for Tokyo when her dad found a new job six years ago. Mr. Hyuga was promoted last month and the company decided to have him take charge of a division in Miyagi. Hence, the reason why she was now standing inside of Aoba Josai high school.
Changing school in the last year of high school was no fun. You would have to spend time getting used to a new environment, which the same time and energy should have been used to prepare for college entrance exams. They said that the final year was the most tiring but also memorable one, and the fact that she would miss all the fun with her bestie back in Tokyo left a bitter taste in her tongue. Hanako sighed as she walked to her classroom, the Pikachu key chain her friends gave her hanging quietly on her backpack.
Getting around Aoba Josai wasn't easy. Unlike schools in Tokyo where buildings squeezed together due to the limitation of space, Aoba Josai was much more spacious. A row of sakura tree stretched from the front gate till the very end, the snow-like petals dancing in the air. It was pretty, but her hay fever wouldn't allow her to enjoy the scenery. She sneezed all the way from the front gate to her class building.
Ironically, her name was Hanako, which means the daughter of flower. Whenever she was introduced to others, her friends would go 'This is Hyuga Hanako, she is allergic to her own name.'
Sakura blossomed a little late up north in Miyagi, the flowers in Tokyo should have already withered by now. The fact that she just moved here a few days ago meant that she would be experiencing a longer Spring season than usual, much to her dismay.
There were only a few people there when she reached her classroom. Hanako pulled down her face mask so she would look a little more approachable. It would probably be challenging to make friends in an place where social groups had already formed. But she still hoped to get along with her classmates. She had a lot of friends back in Tokyo, but she was slow in making friends so by the time she started to get along with people they would probably be heading off to college.
As she entered the classroom, the girls sitting at the front seats nodded at her direction, they then resumed back to their conversation, updating each other of what they had done during the spring break. This could have been me and Yuri-chan, Hanako sighed. The new school year had not even started yet and she already missed her old friends. Aoba Josai was not far from the elementary school Hanako attended, but she hadn't bumped into any familiar faces yet.
Her classroom was at the second floor, which was right beside the Sakura trees. If one looked outside of the windows, they would see nothing but fluffs of pink. Window seat was probably a bad idea. Hanako picked a back seat that was furthest from the window. She was glad that the windows were fully shut, it felt much better compared to staying outdoor.
As if reading her mind, the boy sitting beside the window decided let in some fresh...
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Riding the wind, the Sakura petals flew into the classroom. Hanako pulled up the mask again as she sneezed violently. The boy seemed to notice that and shut the window immediately.
"Ah, my bad~" He apologized cheerfully, "should have asked before opening, it's still a little chilly."
"No worries. The weather is perfect, it's just that I have pollen allergy." Hanako waved her hand reassuringly.
His eyes widen at the statement, the boy stood up and walked to her. Her eyes were red and everything underneath that was covered by the mask, but he somehow recognized her.
"Oh my gosh! Sunflower-chan is that you?!"
