Chapter 9: Surprise Surprise....
"Lady...! I thought you haven't got any practice today..." Reira said surprised.

"Ah! Gomen... Captain Schleizhen called and told me that we suddenly have a practice because I have irregular volleyball practice schedule..." Ahyia said as she was excusing herself to the rather shocked Reira

"Does Lan-san know about this?" Reira continued to interrogate Ahyia.

"Yup! Don't Worry!" Ahyia said

"Oh.. Alright... I can't win over you anyway... *sigh*" Reira said giving in...

"Ah! Arigato!" Ahyia said hugging Reira.

"Just go home early... today.. okay.. There is a surprise for you later..." Reira said smiling at the rather puzzled face of Ahyia..

"Umm... Oh... Okay..." Ahyia said a little confused.

"See Ya Later, Lady Ahyiazhi!" Reira said waving her hand.

"Ah... See Ya!" Ahyia said as she smiled and went outside to her car.

" *sigh* I just hope she does..." Reira said as she was hoping Ahyia would really go home early.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

As Ahyia went to ride the car and Lan was waiting for her.

"Lady, Ohaiyo..." Lan said greeting the princess.

"Ohaiyo, Lan-san!" She said as she greeted Lan with a cute smile.

"Practice, Lady, I presume..." Lan suddenly said as he noticed the bag Ahyia has brought.

"Hai, Hai! A volleyball practice..." Ahyia answered smiling.

"I thought so..." Lan said smiling as well.

After then a moment of silence....

And Lan broke it....

"Lady Ahyia... there is something for you..." Lan said

"Ah, What is it... Lan-san..." Ahyia asked really surprised.

"A large bouquet of roses and a letter..." Lan answered as he turned and gave the package to Ahyia..

"Seriously! There is just one weird person who could have sent this to me..." Ahyia said as she received the gift.

"Its.. Lord Jin... Ah... Master Eiji..." Lan continued on.

"I thought so..." Ahyia said as she was sweatdropping...

'Anyway... Lady Ahyia... you better go or you'll be late for your appointment with yuor captain." Lan said as he beckoned her to go.

"Hai! Hai! I better... Arigato...Lan-san.. and I will leave it here..." Ahyia said

"Alright... I will be here at earlier time alright..." Lan said

"Hai!" Ahyia replied then went out of the car.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Ohaiyo! Li-san!" the other students there said.

"Ohaiyo! Minna!" Ahyia replied with a cute smile which made the guys there blush.

"Li-san, Schleizhen-san is looking for you..." a student told Ahyia as she entered.

"Hai, I'll go to her..." Ahyia replied.

"Ah, Ahyia-kun! You're here!" Ayako said as she saw Ahyia.

"Ah! Ayako-san! I didn't know there is basketball practice.." Ahyia said.

"Well... Akagi-san is so rash! And so he asked a practice..." Ayako explained.

"I see..." Ahyia said.

"So you have practice with with the volleyball team, huh? ah! Kawaii! You are cute... wearing that..." Ayako said as she pointed on Ahyia's uniform.

"A.. Arigato..." Ahyia said as she blushed.

"Hehe..." Ayako said.

"Anyway, after your practice with the volleyball team... go to the gym okay... Basketball practice.." Ayako continued.

"Hai! I will.. see you later.." Ahyia said.

"See you!" Ayako said as she went on her way to the gym.

"Ahyia-kun! There you are! I've been looking for you!" Elaean said as she found Ahyia and waving her hand in the court.

"Ah, Schleizhen-san.." Ahyia said as she smiled and went to see her on practice.
After she had finished practice, she went to Schleizhen to tell her she has to go to the gym for Basketball practice...

"Ah... But are you sure you don't want to go out and eat lunch with the team?" Elaean asked Ahyia

"Iie... I have to go to Basketball practice yet..." Ahyia said.

"Okay.. See you.." Elaean said as she smiled and Ahyia went to the gym.

And Ahyia went to the gym and entered the gym with the spunky men playing basketball.

"Konnichiwa! Gomen-nasai... I was late!" Ahyia greeted as she entered the place.

"Ko..Ko.. Konnichiwa... Li..Li-san.." the boys replied upon seeing Ahyia wearing the volleyball uniform with short shorts.

"Ahyia..-chan!" Sakuragi exclaimed as he blushed.

"Ahyia!" Ayako exclaimed also as she saw Ahyia.

And Rukawa looked and bowed a little as a sign of greeting to Ahyia.

And so did Ahyia...

"I should go change.." Ahyia said as she entered with Ayako

"Iie! Don't! You look cuter that way!" Ayako said as she pointed on the other basketball members.

"Ehe..he..Hai.." Ahyia said laughing a little.

And she went to the basketball practice... with everyone...

MEANWHILE

"Shohoku..." Lan said as he was bringing a large bouquet of flowers.

"Sumimasen... demo... where can I find Ms. Li?" he asked a student who turns out to be Schleizhen, Elaean.

"Um.. In the gym.." Elaean answered..

"And where can I find the gym...?" he again asked

"I'll show you, sir." Elaean said and she went to the gym.

And Elaean showed Lan where the gym is...

"Yosh... Sakuragi... a little more and you'll be more of a basketball player.." Ahyia said as she was teaching Sakuragi.

"Hai! Because I am Tensai! Tensai! And I shall defeat that Kitsune-otoko and impress Haruko-chan and A.. Ah..Ahyia-chan!" Sakuragi said blushing a lot.

"Ahyia!" Elaean exclaimed and waved her hand.

And Lan appeared on the scene...

"Lan..-san.." Ahyia said shocked but in a low voice.

"Flowers for Ms. Li... " Lan said.

And everyone was so surprised...

"Someone sent Li-san flowers..?" a member said

"Who could that be..?" another asked

"They look expensive..." yet another said.

"Here.. Ms. Li.." Lan said as he gave the flowers and leaned a little to whisper something to Ahyia..

"Reira told me to remind you to go home early... and I will fetch you at 4:00 and no 'buts'!" Lan said.

"Hai... Demo Lan-san... who is this from?" Ahyia said also whispering.

"You know who its from... and there's a card there.." Lan said as he winked at Ahyia, bowed at her and went on his way.

"Arigato..." Ahyia said looking on.

"And I wonder who would send you such gorgeous flowers..." Elaean said as she went near Ahyia and teases her..

"Such Beautiful Flowers for a beautiful lady... how romantic... And I guess he is your 'special someone...'" Ayako said teasing Ahyia as well...

"I don't know..." Ahyia said looking puzzled as well.

"There is a card... you better read it..." Ayako said as she noticed the card.

Then Ahyia took the card and read what it says:
'I'LL SEE YOU...
I'LL BE WAITING...'
JIN
All were written in neat script.

"'I'll See You..'?" Ayako said

"'I'll be waiting...'?" Elaean said as they looked at each other then at Ahyia.

"And who is this... 'Jin'?" Ayako asked..

"Doesn't it sound like a prince?" Elaean said

"Ah... Jinzhou maybe?" Ayako asked.

Ahyia was sweatdropping but she was a little nervous that they will discover that she was the princess and it is true that Prince Jinzhou sent the flowers.

"Or Maybe someone particularly named Jin..." Elaean said.

"I don't think so..." Ahyia replied still sweatdropping.

"So I thought, she has a boyfriend..." a boy said disappointed.

"*sigh* And she is pretty after all guys... don't really ignore such beauty... *sigh*" andother boy said.

Rukawa and Sakuragi was listening intently trying to discover if its really from Ahyia's boyfriend.

"Iie.. It's not... I haven't got one... maybe this is from a good friend.." Ahyia said which made them sigh of relief that she hasn't got a boyfriend.

"Anyway... Let's continue on practicing.." Ahyia said as she placed the flowers down and enthusiastically called on them.

"Hai!" they answered.

"And Ms. Li's secret admirer case is now placed aside... and Ms. Li has won!" Elaean said teasing Ahyia and she was blushing and sweatdropping.

"Anyway... This will be opened again... " Ayako said as she was teasing her as well.
And the Shohoku High School Basketball Team continued the practice.
After Practice Hours, at about 3:50...

"Hey.. I better go... I have to go somewhere..." Ahyia said as she asked for permission to go.

"Of Course... Ms. Li... I smell a date..." Ayako said as she heard Ahyia asking for permission.

"Yup.. A really big one.. and with a prince... a real.. handsome and rich guy with dashing presentation and a really really romantic dinner..." Elaean said imagining some amazing guy.. with a really romantic date.

"Nope, None of that... I have to finish something..." Ahyia said as she was sweatdropping.

"And besides.. I just told you I haven't got one..." Ahyia continued

"And how do you explain Mr. Jin Prince-charming and the really expensive bouquet of roses?" Ayako asked teasing Ahyia

"It's really nothing... I find that these are really pretty and... Jin is a name of a girl... its actually Jinrei and she's a good friend..." Ahyia said trying to hide the real identity of the person who sent her the flowers.

"Oh really..?" Elaean and Ayako said as they both teased her.

"Really... um.." Ahyia said still sweatdropping and the other guys are all laughing.

"Well here is her picture if you would not believe me..." Ahyia said showing the picture of Reira to them with her.

"Oh.. anyway.. I thought you are going..." Ayako said

"Oh, Yeah... right... I have to go.. see ya..." Ahyia said and she smiled.

And Ayako gave the picture and in return, Ahyia gave a rose to Ayako and Elaean each, then she went off.

"I am now going! Arigato Gozaimasu!" Ahyia said as she bowed and ran to the gate.

"Lady...Right on time!" Lan said as he smiled and moved from where he was standing.

"Hai, Lan-san..." Ahyia said as she entered the car.

"Anyway... we should go... Reira is really asking that you come home now..." Lan said smiling as well.

"Ah.. the letter... its still here..." Ahyia said as she took the letter and opened it.
And it read:
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
To My Dearest Sister, Ahyia,
I am fine as usual... I was worried that you would forget... I am sorry that I cannot write or also call since I am busy as well...


As for me, you are right... always... The Manager of the team? I thought you were great in Volleyball... You should have entered the team... I know you will be the ace of your team... My sister, I am also enjoying the team... and Sannoh High... Yes you are right, being a normal bishounen is really amazing... We are able to experience more out of everything... like here in Sannoh... I can do more things and nobody even knows that I am Jinzhou Kawakuni, Prince of Japan... I am really happy... But I really really wish you were with me... I miss you so much... Why aren't you eating properly... You'll get sick... You should eat... or else you'll always be tired... and you will have no power... I guess I should have really told Okaasan and Otoosan that we go to the same school...
Yeah... I have problems in hiding my identity also... It is hard since... We've been used to a different treatment... What you also have letters in your lockers and table? I have too... I'm being gawked at... and girls are always cheering and shouting so loudly..... *sigh...* I know guys are looking at you...since you are very pretty and talented...
Guys gawk at you and girls are getting jealous isn't it... I know how you feel... I am also experiencing them... About those wounds you got... I WAS REALLY REALLY WORRIED... Ran-san said that you were full of bandages... Okaasan and Otoosan were also worried but Reira called and told us you were okay and sleeping... You should take care of yourself or I will personally come to your school and protect you... One more time that I even hear the sound of blood, wound and bandages... I will really go there...

Thanks for worrying about me... I'm really enjoying here and I am happy....

Always.. Always... Take care... and Smile always.... Say hi also to Reira and Lan-san...

Ja.... Until then

Always,
Jinzhou...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
After she read the letter she placed it down on the car seat.

"It's from Jin... huh... a dashing guy in a romantic appointment..." she said as she smiled

"What was that Lady Ahyia?" Lan asked

"Well you delivered the flowers and they were thinking someone special sent it to me.. and they thought that 'Jin' a dashing guy sent it to me..." Ahyia explained.

"Hehe... that's funny.." Lan siad giggling a little.

"It's hard to hide you know! Hide them who I am and who Jin really is..." Ahyia said

"I know, Princess.." Lan said still giggling.

And Lan drove Ahyia home.

And when she arrived...

"Lady Ahyia! It is good that you are home!" Reira said greeting her as she went down and Lan was bringing the flowers she received along.

"Reira.. Tadaima..." Ahyia said.

"Hayaku! You better enter someone is waiting for you!" Reira said as she excitedly beckoned Ahyia in.

"And who could that be?" Ahyia asked.

"Well see for yourself!" Reira said.

And as Ahyia entered the living room...

"Okaeri... Ahyiazhi...-chan" a familiar voice said

"Okaasan! Otoosan!" Ahyia said surprised.

"You look fine... Ahyia!" her father said.

"This is so surprising... I missed you!" Ahyia said coming close to them and hugging them

"You too! Ahyia-chan.." her mother said hugging her.

"And I heard that you've been hurt in your first day..." her father said

"Daijobu... Absolutely Fine and living Fantastically!" Ahyia said happily

"Anyway Ahyia... I see that you are living comfortably and happily here.." her mother said

"Hai! It is really great here.." Ahyia replied happily.

"And we looked at the place and asked them while you were away... so we saw the place already..." her father said.

"I see.." Ahyia said smilingly

"And I know that you are hungry now..." her mother said

"Ah.." Ahyia replied blushingly

"So you better change up and we will eat outside." her father said.

"Yay!" Ahyia exclaimed then she ran to change her clothes.

Then they went to ride to Lan and went to a restaurant...

And when they entered the restaurant, someone was waiting for them...

"Hey... Mom and Dad! Ah... pretty as ever huh?" again a familiar voice said

"J I N - O N I I C H A N ! ! !" Ahyia exclaimed and went to hug his brother.

"Ahyia-chan... I missed you!" Jinzhou said.

"Yup! Me too!" Ahyia said happily.

"Anyway... here.." Jinzhou said as he gave Ahyia a bouquet of roses.

"You know... a bouquet of roses could have been something that might have revealed my true identity..." Ahyia said irritatingly but smiled.

"Gomen-nasai..." Jinzhou said as he sweatdropped and smiled.

"And can you believe it... they thought that Jin was a dashing guy.. very romantic and my boyfriend! Imagine that!" Ahyia said explaining.

"Well.. hehe..." Jin said giggling.

"Anyway.. we must all eat!" their father said and they all sat down.

And the royal family ate out as a normal Japanese family. And they were enjoying the company of each other... And they exchanged stories and all... and they were happy that they were together and happy that they were all there with each other eating out as a normal family.
