Innocuous Polygons

Chapter 1: Ryoma

Looking back at it now, it all started the day Kaidoh-senpai found a love letter in his shoebox.

Unless it was about tennis, my attention for detail was rather lacking, but this I remembered. I didn't know it at the time, but my whole world was going to change.

He was a little more standoffish than usual, not that I particularly noted or cared. Inui-senpai noticed right away though, and brought it to attention as we were warming up. He does that a lot. Just his way, I suppose. I think we've all gotten used to his ramblings.

Anyways, my day had started off normally. Sleep in. Get ready for school. Skip breakfast. Run laps for being late for morning practice. Go to class. Blah blah blah. It never changed much. My life was a predictable routine, but I was content. Life was pretty good.

Of course, that was before that letter screwed up my world.

Why?

Because Wobbly Hips wrote it. She wrote a love letter to Kaidoh-senpai.
