Rukawa was by in the Shohoku school basketball court.He was practicing so he could beat Sendoh any day.Mitsui and Miyagi were there.Akagi,Kogure,Sakuragi and the others were running late because of other things.
Miyagi:Hey,did you see the new girl in Ryonan?
Mitsui:Hmm,let me see.Her name was.
Miyagi:It's Kyoko,Mr. Forgetful.
Mitsui:Oh yeah.She's a knock-out,but she's too nerdy for me.That's a BIG minus for us boys,right?
Miyagi:Yeah,too bad.
Mitsui:Hey,help me on the hunt for a girl,will ya?
Miyagi:I thought you're going to concentrate on basketball and studies.
Mitsui:It's hard without inspiration.
Rukawa,who had been silent,paused for a bit.
Rukawa:Hey.
Mitsui:Hmmmm?What do you want?
Rukawa:Can you help me out?
Miyagi and Mitsui looked very very surprised.
Miyagi:You want help?From us?
Rukawa:If you dont want to help,it's fine with me.
Miyagi:It's not that.It's not like you to ask for help.
Rukawa said nothing.
Rukawa:Are you going to help or not?
Miyagi:Sure,we'll help.What's the problem?
Rukawa:I'm accompanying my childhood friend to a contest tomorrow night.I want to..you know.
Mitsui:You want us to teach you how to make moves on her?
Rukawa:Not quite.I want you to help me on what to wear-
Miyagi:That is not a problem,Rukawa!Mitsui and I will fix you so well,she'll fall for you head to toe!
Mitsui:You mean,head over heels.
Miyagi:Right.
Rukawa:Thanks.
Mitsui:No big.
Rukawa then resumed practicing while Mitsui and Miyagi continued to talk about girls.
Kasumi was walking down the hallway of Ryonan High to her classroom.She looked over neat in her school uniform.As she made her way up the stairs,she saw a very dreadful sight.It was Sendoh and this girl kissing right by the stairs.
Kasumi:Sendoh!
Sendoh:(breaking away)K-K-Kasumi!!!!I can explain!
Kasumi:(almost in tears)I dont want to hear any explanation!!!
Sendoh ran to her and he tried to hug her but she pushed him away.
Kasumi:Dont touch me!
Sendoh:Kas,let me explain.You see Mia just came to me and kissed me!I didnt know what to do!You got to believe me!
Kasumi:(crying)Akira,you think it isnt very hard to witness something like that.I love you,for God's sake!It hurts to know that you were hiding her all these time!
Sendoh:Kas,I didnt mean to hurt you.I'm sorry.
Kasumi:My friends warned me about you.That you are nothing but a heartbreaker.But I was stupid because I didnt listen to them!
Sendoh:Kas.
Kasumi:We're through.....
Kasumi walked away from him and Mia who was standing by with a smile on her face.She ran away from them as fast as she could.Her tears were falling.If she looked on the bright side,she's finally free but she's hurt because she had loved Sendoh and she was nothing but a big fool.
Mitsui and Miyagi were sorting through the bag of scents Sakuragi brought with him to the court.Sakuragi was lucky enough to find an abandoned bag of scents down the street.
Mitsui:Eureka!
Miyagi:What is it?
Mitsui:This is the perfect scent for you,Rukawa.
Mitsui tossed the bottle to Rukawa.
Sakuragi:What does that fox-face want with a bottle of perfume?
Miyagi:He's preparing for his big date with Kasumi Narusegawa tomorrow night.
Sakuragi's jaw dropped.
Sakuragi:RUKAWA???!!!ON A DATE!
Mitsui:Yup!And it's with the hottest babe here in Kanagawa!
Sakuragi:It cant be!
Rukawa:Do'aho.
Miyagi:Of course it's true.After all,Rukawa could pull off some shines to Kasumi.He does have the looks!
Mitsui:But lacks the moves,the smooth talk and the style.
Sakuragi:You got that right!
Miyagi:But he'll change!A super ultra make-over!
Sakuragi:Interesting.Let me help!
Rukawa:No.
Sakuragi:WHY NOT!
Rukawa:Coz you're a do'aho and you'll just mess up everything.
Sakuragi:I wont do such a thing!
Mitsui:Just give him a chance,Rukawa.He could be of help.
Rukawa:Fine.
Sakuragi:YEAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
Rukawa sighed and he continued to shoot baskets.
Rukawa was riding on his bike to his house.Mitsui's going to bring his clothes tomorrow so rukawa could borrow them.As he was listening to his walkman and almost falling asleep,he saw Kasumi all by herself by the cafe.He decided to stop by.
Rukawa:Hey.
Kasumi:(sniffling)Oh.
Rukawa:What's wrong?Did you just cried?
Kasumi:(trying to smile)It's nothing.
Rukawa:You could tell me all about it.
All of a sudden,Kasumi burst out in tears.
Kasumi:(crying)Sendoh has another girl!
Rukawa:What!
Kasumi:He fooled me all along.....
Rukawa took her hand and he held it tight.They were silent and then,Kasumi's phone rang.It was a message from Sendoh.
"I love back to me.I'm sorry.I leave myself at the mercy of your beautiful face.I didnt mean to hurt you.Give me another chance.Please...."
Rukawa:(thinking)Asshole.
Kasumi:Oh,Kaede.I still love him.I dont know what to do.Should I give him another chance?
Rukawa was silent.He sure didnt want the two of them to get back together,but he doesnt want to see Kasumi cry.He was confused but he managed to decide.
Rukawa:Leave him.
Kasumi:Why?
Rukawa:I dont want to say this coz you may not believe me.
Kasumi:What?
Rukawa:Sendoh was just keeping you because he is waiting for another girl named Mia's answer to his courting.When she does,he'll just dump you.That's why....I fought him.
Kasumi frowned.Her instincts were right.Sendoh really was playing with her all along.And Sendoh was wounded because Rukawa fought cares for her....
Kasumi:I believe you.And,maybe I must leave Sendoh now.I guess I'm not the one for him after all.I didnt succeed,so I'll find him a girl who will erase his attitude.
Rukawa:You will?
Kasumi:Yes.And I'm starting now.
Kasumi smiled at him.
Kasumi:You know what,I wasnt really quite hurt after you told me to leave him.I felt.....free.I gotta go now.I have a brilliant idea on where to get a girl for Sendoh.Bye,Kaede!Dont forget tomorrow night!
Rukawa:Sure.
Kasumi left after leaving her payment at the was just sitting down,very happy and content.Maybe Kasumi's over Sendoh now.That's why she'll find him a girl that could cure his attitude.But then,his phone rang.It's another message from Sendoh.
"You big loser.Sticking your nose in other people's business."
Rukawa stood up.He could feel Sendoh was just around there.Sure enough,he saw him standing by a pole,frowning.
Rukawa:Asshole.
Sendoh:You too.
Sendoh then rode in his expensive car and he drove looked on at his trail,hating his rival all the more.
