-Three weeks later -
"You're good." Kevin said, after they had just played a short friendly match together.
Sakuno smiled. "Thanks." This was the result of her practising every night whenever she was thinking about Ryoma. She would hit against the wall and reminisced about the time where Ryoma was teaching her tennis.
Sakuno had always wanted to play tennis with Ryoma. She knew that it was impossible, so she decided to play with Kevin instead. Kevin was a tennis pro too.
Kevin had brought Sakuno here to the stadium where they had first met after eating dinner together. Then Sakuno had her best match ever played yet. Sakuno wiped her sweat with a towel and drank some water.
"Let's go."
"Where to?"
"Up to the locker room. I left some stuff there during my match last week." Kevin said, leading Sakuno towards the locker room.
"Can I not go?" Sakuno asked. The locker room was the dreaded place that Sakuno had witnessed the most horrible scene in her life.
Kevin took her hand encouragingly. "It's alright. It's a friday night, no one will be here."
Sakuno bit her lips, and slowly, rather reluctantly, nodded and went with Kevin.
Sakuno sat down carefully on the bench in the locker room and watched as Kevin took his stuff out.
"Hey Sakuno."
"Yeah?"
Kevin walked uncomfortably towards Sakuno. "I...I want to try something..."
"What?" Sakuno asked as Kevin pulled her up.
Kevin leaned close to her, and she could feel his breath tickling her. Her blood rushed up to her face as Kevin hugged her around the waist and pulled her closer.
"Wha..." Sakuno could not finish her sentence as Kevin pressed his lips into the others softly.
The kiss was gentle, and really delicious. Sakuno could feel all her blood rushing into her head. It was her first kiss. Her first kiss...ever...
They broke apart shortly after, and they stared at each other, face flushed, for a long time. She had always wanted to leave her first kiss to Ryoma, so she was kind of shocked when Kevin kissed her. It's okay, though, it was impossible for Ryoma to kiss her. She smiled a bit, staring at Kevin, as he stared back as well, face also blushing.
"What do you think you're doing?"
The couple turned around sharply.
"Ryoma." Kevin said, shocked. The green haired male was standing just outside the door, witnessing the kissing scene just like how Sakuno witnessed his.
"What..." Ryoma did not continue as he stared at Sakuno.
"Ryuzaki?" Ryoma said as his eyes widened. He looked at Kevin and looked at Sakuno, with a blank look as if he was unable to figure something out.
"When did you come to America?"
"About a month..." Sakuno answered, and watched as Ryoma dropped his racket in shock as he looked like he realised something finally.
He walked towards them, as Kevin released his grip on Sakuno. "Ryoma, I...I can explain..." He walked towards Ryoma, putting his hands onto his shoulders.
"Fuck you!" Ryoma shook off Kevin's hands and punched Kevin on his face. Kevin collapsed onto the bench. Ryoma used the opportunity and pinned Kevin to the ground, punching him some more. Kevin pushed Ryoma to the side and he crashed onto the wall. Kevin struggled to stand up, and Ryoma wasted no time in pushing him down again.
"Ryoma, what are you doing?" Sakuno screamed, pulling Ryoma away from Kevin. It was no use, Ryoma was too strong. Sakuno bit her lips. She risked her life and placed herself in between them.
"Stop it, Ryoma!" Sakuno shrieked as Ryoma's fist seemed to be coming in towards her.
Ryoma's fist somehow managed to stop just in front of Sakuno.
"Get lost, Ryuzaki." Ryoma growled.
Sakuno felt tears welling up her eyes. Ryoma was glaring at her with such fury in his eyes it was scaring her. "I'm not." She said stubbornly. They glared at each other for a really long time.
"What are you doing here in America?" Ryoma asked, pulling his cap down to cover his eyes. His voice was soft and thick.
"I'm studying. I got a scholarship."
Ryoma nodded. "Right, in America for one whole month and I don't know about it." Ryoma bend down and got his racket. "Fuck you, Kevin." He threw these words as he slammed the door.
"What's wrong with him?" Sakuno asked, helping Kevin up. "Are you okay?"
Kevin shook his head, pushing Sakuno away from him. "It's okay, don't care about me." He walked a step forward, and fell down again. Sakuno caught him.
"Come on, let me help you." Sakuno held Kevin. They walked back home together.
"What's wrong with him? I mean, what is wrong with him? He just came and punched you, just like that, no reason at all. He's so unreasonable. He just punched you before you could even say anything. He's unbelievable." Sakuno exclaimed angrily.
Kevin remained quiet.
"And he even told me to get lost. No one have ever told me to get lost before, and I never thought in my whole life that he would be the one that would tell me that. The way he stared at me, I...I thought he was going to kill me. It's so... frightening. I...I was so...his eyes..." Sakuno stopped and wiped her eyes.
Why was she crying? Why did she have to cry? The way Ryoma glared at her, shouted at her, it just made her tears come out. Stop crying, Sakuno! There's nothing to cry about.
Kevin wiped her tears away from her eyes, and gave her a peck on her cheeks. "Don't cry." The way he said, the amount of sadness leaked out from his voice, it just made Sakuno want to cry more.
"What's to him? Why did he punch you? What did you do to him?"
There was a moment of silence as Kevin stared blankly guiltily. "I betrayed him."
"What do you mean?"
"I kept you away from him."
Sakuno kept quiet for while. "I don't get it. So what? Even if I have not met you, I would still not meet Ryoma." She sighed. "I wouldn't dare." She added sadly.
Kevin stared at Sakuno. "Let's just forget it, okay." He smoothed Sakuno's hair. "But you must always remember that I love you. A lot."
They walked silently.
Ryoma was so weird.
The look on Ryoma's eyes appeared in her head again. Sakuno shook her head to drive it away. Why was she thinking so much about Ryoma? She was supposed to forget about him in these days with Kevin. Sakuno was so happy with Kevin, she was supposed to like Kevin and let go of Ryoma.
"Get lost Ryuzaki."
Sakuno bit her lips as Ryoma's voice echoed over and over again in her head. Tears were welling up her eyes again.
Okay, stop thinking about Ryoma! Let's think about...
Question 14b. Yes, it's a real hard question, Sakuno was spending weeks on figuring it out. Now how do you solve it...
-Saturday -
Ryoma had never cried so much before. Ryoma had never cried at all, as long as he could remember. He had always thought crying was cowardly and useless, and a waste of water in the body.
Yet, yesterday night he had cried himself to sleep, in front of his butler and his servants. It was embarrassing, so he had decided to lock himself up in his room this morning and think things through thoroughly.
Sakuno arrived in America last month to study in America. No mater how much Ryoma dug his brain, he could not think of why Sakuno would meet Kevin instead of Ryoma. There was no way. If Sakuno had to find someone, it would be Ryoma. Then how did Kevin get into the picture?
Kevin, ever since he went to Disneyland, he was acting weird. He went to Disneyland last month. Sakuno arrived at America last month. Kevin knew how much Ryoma loved Sakuno. He knew Sakuno, since Ryoma had been talking to him about her. Kevin was always going out somewhere during weekends, friday nights, and always left early for practice.
Yes, everything was coming to piece.
Kevin must have somehow met Sakuno, liked her, and brought her to Disneyland. He played with Sakuno for four days, and came back without telling Ryoma that Sakuno was here. He was acting weird because he knew Ryoma loved Sakuno, and he was taking Sakuno away from him. Then Kevin started having dates with Sakuno, and got closer to Sakuno while leaving Ryoma in the dark.
And throughout the whole month, Ryoma was trying to figure out what was wrong with Kevin, and even wished him luck with his 'girlfriend'.
Ryoma punched the pillow angrily.
Why did Kevin do this? There's so many girls in the world, why must he want Sakuno? Why must they always fight over the same thing?
Ryoma punched the pillow over and over, imagining that it was Kevin. He threw the pillow to the wall, panting. His nose were getting sour again, and tears started coming out from his eyes again.
The only person in the team he thought he could trust betrayed him. The person whom he had always told his troubles to, whom he had treated as a friend snatched his girl away. Fuck you, Kevin!
Maybe, there was no such thing as a friend. There was no one to be trusted in this whole world, everyone would backstab you, betray you, and there's no one to be trusted at all!
Why did he still went for Sakuno even after knowing how much Ryoma loved her?
Sakuno... He had always ignored her, so he had always wanted to make up to her. He planned to find Sakuno after his contract ends, and it had always been the motivation for him to practice hard everyday. The thought of seeing Sakuno in Japan after this was what drove him to continue training no matter how torturous it might be.
Sakuno. Ryoma never admitted it, but he appreciated the way Sakuno cheered for him all the time. Not too loud like Tomoko, but silently and enough to drive Ryoma forward. He loved the food Sakuno made for her, it was even better than his mother's food. He loved the way Sakuno trained hard in tennis; if she had started earlier, she would have the potential to beat Ryoma.
He had always thought Sakuno was definitely going to be his, but no, Kevin took her away.
He wiped his tears away agressively. He hated people who cried, it was useless and cowardly, and a waste of water in the body. So he was not going to cry. He's going to take actions.
Kevin snatched Sakuno away from him, he's taking Sakuno back.
Sakuno's mine, and mine only. Ryoma thought angrily as he finally opened his door.
"Young master!" His butler who had been waiting outside exclaimed happily. "I'm so worried! Are you hungry? I have already told them to prepare your breakfast. You have to eat your breakfast, and hurry to the tennis court to practice."
Ryoma shut his butler up with the pink piece of paper. "Check where this person stays. I'm skipping practice for today."
His butler took the piece of paper. "But, you have booked the whole tennis court for the whole day, young master, you have to go. And you have a very important match next week!"
"It's just one day of not practicing. And correction, my match is next next week. Now stop worrying and go and check the address of the person!" Ryoma snapped. His butler bowed, and set off to answer his order.
Kevin you're so dead.
