Chapter 2 Hotdog sandwiches and Inui Juice
Everybody gathered at the courts at exactly 9:30am. Everybody that is, except Kumiko Asahara.
"Somebody's missing today." Tezuka said gritting his teeth.
"She headed for the toilet." Akiko said absently, glaring at Ryoma. Echizen didn't even spare her a glance.
Thirty minutes later, Kumiko arrived wearing a green tennis outfit with her silver glasses. Her hair was neatly plaided and she looked completely relaxed while eating a hotdog sandwich. Kaidoh almost choked upon seeing her completely indifferent to Tezuka's seething.
"Asahara, two hundred laps around the court." Tezuka said.
"Hoi-hoi! Somebody got up on the wrong side of the bed." Kumiko said in a sing-song voice then took a bite on her sandwich before running.
This will be a good time to bring out my special nutritive shake, Inui thought, holding out a big pitcher of bubbling brown liquid. Everybody gagged at the sight and gave Kumiko sympathetic glances as she approached. She grabbed Inui's pitcher and drank the whole stuff, then continued running without even bothering a glance at anybody.
Eiji's jaw dropped before he remembered something. Kumiko's digestive system was completely immune to Inui's concoction because --- he choked as he remembered tasting Kumiko's cooking. He remembered being hospitalized for salmonella poisoning by trying out Kumiko's omelettes. Smiling, he resumed practicing as he saw Inui frantically scribbling something on his notebook.
