Legend ...OOO... (this is an interlude)
Kenji Sukogawa, CEO and owner of the Tokyo Thundercats and Co. is probably facing bankruptcy in the next two to three years. Everything was going smoothly for his business operations until he got greedy. He wants to open up neophyte businesses that has not been tried with the Japanese populace yet. In the end, he became over-leveraged with the banks resulting in their low confidence to lend him more money. It was a pyramid of debt over debt that seemed to topple over and bury him alive.
"I need to do something about this. Anything..." he muses desperately to himself. The fact was that even if the All-Japan Basketball Association trophy was his, it would not be enough to pay off all his debt.
"I need to play this one out. Maybe something will come up."
.......OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.......
For the first time in Rukawa's life, he was nervous. More appropriately he was nervous and scared. It's been too long without communication with Hanamichi. How many e-mails or snail mails had he sent? And not once had he received a reply. There were too many possibilities. It's hard tot think about the chances and so many ifs. What if he doesn't love me anymore? What if he met somebody new? What if? What if? What if? It hurt him just thinking about it, but he could never help it. It made him think twice about his decision to temporarily leave Hanamichi. Will he still accept me? Man! I'd better stop thinking like this. I do not even know the situation. Even if there is someone new, I won't let him go. It will be over my dead body. Do you hear me? Whoever you are? I love him! And I would fight over him! On the other hand, if he doesn't love me anymore, tough luck for my Hana-chan. I'll make him fall for me again because I won't accept no for an answer.
