"Sakuno, from now on, I'll be with you. I'll stay with you, I'll never leave you because...I love

you..."

"Ryoma-kun..."

"Sakuno, i love you and i will always love you forever..."

"Ryoma-kun, I'm sorry..." Sakuno said, sobbing.

"For what?" Ryoma ask her with a confused smile.

"because, because, I am now going ..."

BLOG "OUCH!!!!" sakuno screamed because she fell from her bed. "Oh, what a dream!

……….argh... my head hurts..." she get up to fix her bed."oh thank god I'm not with anyone in

this room...that one is so embarrassing!" Then when she's already done fixing her bed, she went

to the bathroom to take a shower."Ryoma-kun...I wish that one would happen. But what is it

that I am going to tell him in the end? It was cutted. Oh, I'm such a baka...if I did'nt fell, I may

know it... Oh! I forgot! I will have an another pictorial for the latest issue of my magazine!!!!!!"

Sakuno rushed as she had remember it. She wore a dark pink skirt below the knee fo half an

inch, a light pink v-neck, sleeveless blouse that fits her and would able to see her curves. She

wore a sandals, also colored pink. Then she went out from her house and went out of the village.

She put on a straw hat that would able to cover her face by it's shadow. I hope no one will

recognize me.

"Oh, 9 o'clock in the morning already? " then Ryoma yawn. "Better get ready for my practice"

Ryoma take a shower. That girl, she's in my dreams, but why? Who is she in my life? But, why

can't I remember?

Then Ryoma's already wearing his clothes. He's wearing a red shirt that has a vertical silver

stripes at each sleeve. He's also wearing a navy green colored shorts. And also, of course, his

white Fila cap with an initial letter 'R' at the front. Then he get his bag with his tennis equipments.

Now,l the only thing that I should do now is to escape from my loud manager.

Ryoma look through the window to look if somebody is outside. Ryoma look through the window

to look if somebody is outside. Thank goodness! Nobody is outside!. Then he opened the window

and jumped outside through the other lower roof, then jumped again through the other one. Then

he hopped down near the gate. Whew! At last! Then he knocked out the guard who's standing at

the gate with his twist serve. Then he ran outside as fast as he can. I hope that nobody saw me

doing that. Now, to the tennis court. He went in an unpopulated court to make sure that no one

would recognize him. Then he begun practicing with the wall.

While striking the ball, an image appeared in his mind again. Who is she, why can't I stop thinking

about her?

It looks like, she's a very important person for me. But if it is so, why can't I remember her?

"HEY!!! LOOK!!! IT'S RYOMA!!! ECHIZEN RYOMA!!!!"

Ryoma was shocked when he heard that very loud voice. What!! How did that girl noticed me?

Oh never mind. Then Ryoma quickly packed up his things then run away. He went in a narrow

road to hide and escape. When he finally reached the other side, he peaked first if somebody is

there. Then he thought that it is now already safe to get out. But poor Ryoma, there were group of

men blocking each side of his way. Then in his front, a man stood there with a very familiar face.

What!! They already knew where am I ?! Argh!!!!

"Now, now, Mr. Echizen. There's no way to run!" His stupid manager, as he describe, said. I

guess that it's time to give up. "Now, Mr. Echizen, please enter the car now." "Where are we

going?" "In a meeting that-" "Again?" " we will be talking about your next opponents" "Fine" He

answered in a cold voice.

00000000000000000000000000000000000

"Sakuno-chan, you're late again!"

"gomen nasai, Tomo-chan"

"Well, let's just proceed to the studio."

"Hai!"

While they were alone inside the elevator, "ah, Tomo-chan, gomen nasai." "For what?" "For being

onerous to you." "It's okay, you're my best friend!" "Thanks." Then they proceed to the studio.

"Miss Ryuzaki, we are going to put an article in 'My history' in the new issue that talks about your

highschool life. Is it okay?"

"S-sure"

"Well, let's begin. Please sit. Now what's the name of your school in your junior high………."

Oh my, this is going to be a long day.

000000000000000000000000000000000

"That's all for today's meeting."

Hmmmm. At last, it's done." I'm going to play again with that boring player who I always beat,

huh, Horoko?"

"Yes sir. In fact, you already defeated him four times."

"I wish that I would play to someone that would challenge me." After Ryoma said these

statements, Horoko just nodded. "Hey Horoko, Do you play tennis?" Horoko was shocked when

Ryoma asked him. "Y-yes, a little." "Will you play with me?" "Of course, sir." Whoe, I'm going to

play with the 'Prince of tennis'!! Horoko thought. "Well then, let's play."

They were looking for a court that is not very populated to keep Ryoma away from the paparazzi.

"We're here, sir." "Hn"

000000000000000000000000000000000000000

At last it's done. Then she remembered the questions while she was interviewed.

Flashback

"What, you're part of a tennis club?"

"Hai"

"Since when did you become interested in tennis?"

"When a boy inspired me of tennis. He's really good at it. He even complained that my hair is too

long for tennis. He even suggested that I should cut it. And he complained also about my wobbly

hips and chest too wide."

"Really?"

"Yes"

"When you mentioned awhile ago that you studied at Seishun Gakuen. That's also the school

where the pro tennis player and also the prince of tennis, Echizen Ryoma, studied. Do you know

him that time?"

"Y-yyes" She blushed when she heard his name.

"Well, do you know him, and also the regulars, well?"

"Not that well. My obaa-chan is the coach of that club, so, I just know something about them."

"Oh is that so. Well, is Echizen Ryoma and you, close with each other?" But Tomoka cut him off

when she heard the question. "Hey, you're going too far. Let's just end it here."

"Well okay. Miss Ryuzaki, may we also put your history in a tennis magazine? Since you also

played tennis before."

"okay"

End of flashback.

After the interview, Sakuno approached Tomoka. "Arigatou gozaimasta, Tomo-chan." "Oh it's

nothing Sakuno-chan. I know that you're already feeling uneasy about it. " Sakuno smiled when

Tomoka finished her statement. Then Tomoka heard a growl in her stomach. "Sakuno- chan, I

think we should have a lunch first before your next appointment. Sakuno just nodded.

They went in an unpopulated restaurant to keep Sakuno protected from the paparazzi. Sakuno

thank that she had a friend like Tomoka.

00000000000000000000000000000000000000

"Game and match, Echizen Ryoma, 6-0!"

"Oh….. Mr. Echizen, why di you take it seriously? Now I feel exhausted."

Hmmm. It worked. Now that he's so tired, he can't run any longer. Now, I can escape. "Hey

Horoko, I'm just going to buy ponta." He went in the nearest vendo machine and bought ponta.

He was observing Horoko. Hmmm, poor Horoko, so tired. Then Ryoma smirked. Horoko did not

noticed that Ryoma's bag is with him when he bought ponta. But, when Horoko take a look to the

vendo machine, Ryoma's gone. Oh no, not again!!!! That guy escaped again!!!

Ryoma went in a tennis store. He told the people there to keep silent and not tell anyone that he

is there. All of them agreed. Ryoma is scanning the shop for the new items. Then something

caught his eye. It is the latest issue of the 'Monthly tennis magazine'. There was a girl in the front

page. Hey, it's her! The girl that I saw from the magazine that guys are reading! He take a look at

it. "Special feature: about Ryuzaki Sakuno." He read silently and make sure that no one heard

him. He proceede to the counter and bought that magazine.

00000000000000000000000000000000000

"What? Really, Tomo-chan? Oh, I never thought that it's that fast!!!"

"Sakuno-chan, believe it or not, the article is now at the 'Monthly Tennis magazine'."

"Sugoi!"

Tomoka heard this news when they went back to their office (A/N: I forgot the term..). "Oh, Tomo-

chan, it's unbelievable! Fantastic, amazing! Itsjust a while ago!! Sugoi, sugoi!" Tomoka just smile

at her." Well, the meeting is about to begin. Let's go!" "Hai!"

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Now I'll know who this girl always in my mind is! I'd better go home now. Ryoma has never been

excited before. He went straight back in his home because he wanted to read it silently and

without interruption.

When he reached his house, he saw Horoko standing at the gate. "I knew you will come back

because you forgot your tennis racket with me." But Ryoma did not listen to him. Horoko also

noticed it. Ryoma went in his bedroom and take a shower first. When he's already done, he get

his clothes in his cabinet. He get his plain white t-shirt, his red shorts, and his… ehem….. eto.

After he had dressed up, he sat at his bed and read the magazine. He did not read the first

articles, but he proceeded to the 'celebrity special'.

Hmmm. So she's Sakuno Ryuzaki. After reading the whole article, he lie down. Now I remember.

Wobbly hips, hair too long, chest too wide. Then he smiled. She's the one I love. But I leave her

and went in America. Hey, maybe she's still in Japan!! I'm going to find her there.

Ryoma explained it to Horoko. Horoko can't believe that Ryoma, a cold and cocky boy, is in love

with someone. Horoko helped ryoma to go in Japan secretly. Now, he's flight is tomorrow, 6 am.

"Sakuno, I'm going back….."

To be continued…….
