15. Much To Tezuka's Head Ache


"Chotto matte kudasai!" I told the person in front of me who was running,

"Chotto matte!"

"Saa... Tezuka Kumiko-chan. Aishiteru yo."

"Eh? Chotto matte! Dare desu ka? Dare desu ka?" I keep on asking him until I heard a RING,

And soon I opened my eyes, realizing that it was just a dream. But who would possibly that person be? Seriously, I have no idea. I sighed and looked at the clock, it was morning already. I suppose what woke me up was the alarm from the alarm clock, which had gone off already.

I stood up and looked at the outside through the windows. It was snowing. But it's not yet Winter... Ah. I forgot. It's still Spring... I sighed as I glanced at the calendar. It's almost that date. My birthday.

I went to the bathroom as I decided to take a morning shower to clear up my thoughts and so that I could start preparing for school. Wait a minute. School? It's still Spring Break! I forgot about it!

I sighed and looked at the outside; it's still snowing. I went downstairs to see Onii-chan, who was already awake,

"Kumiko, ohayo."

"Ohayo onii-chan."

We greeted each other as he was drinking something, which is I guess, coffee? I'm not really sure... Hmmm.. Nonetheless, I drank milk and then I noticed that it was only me and Onii-chan here.

"Where are Okaa-san, Otou-san, Obaa-sama, and Ojii-sama?" I asked him as he turned to me,

"Ah, they went out. I suppose a wedding. They're going back two days from now. It's in Hokkaido. Didn't they tell you yesterday?" He asked as I raised an eyebrow,

"Kumiko-chan, I, your Otou-san, Obaa-sama and Ojii-sama are going to Hokkaido due to a wedding of a friend. We'll be going back two days later. OK? You and Kunimitsu would be in-charge of the house. Is that clear?"

"Hai Okaa-san."

Ahhh... I just remembered. So, they'll be gone for three days then.

"Onii-chan, you won't have a practice today?" I asked him as he raised an eyebrow,

"It's snowing."

"Ah!!! Yes right!" I said as I sighed, Geesh. What's with me. It's totally obvious that they can't use the courts. And by the way, I wonder what's with the dream I have earlier. Could it be that some person admires me? Oh my gosh. I didn't know that I would have admirers here in Japan. I'm really flattered if that's the case!!!! I wonder who. Could it be someone I know? Seriously? I don't know. Ugh...

I turned and saw Onii-chan, raising an eyebrow as he was looking at me, I smiled back at him and shook my hand, and he sighed. Seriously, do I look like a baka now, fretting about something that I'm not sure of???

But of course, anyone would try to figure out who, well except those who are used to it already, but I am not. In fact, this might be the first time that I've had admirers!

DING DONG

I turned to hear the doorbell. Since when did we have a door bell? Ughh. Seriously...

I stood up and said, "Chotto matte yo!"

I opened the door to see...


Normal POV

"Saa, Tezuka-chan!"

Kumiko opened the door to see Fuji, Oishi and Eiji,

"Nyaa! Tezuka-chan!" Eiji glomped on Kumiko, who said, "Can't...brea- se-pai!!!"

"Eiji, Tezuka-chan can't breathe anymore!" Oishi said as Eiji looked at Kumiko, who was already blue, and quickly released her,

"Arigato Oishi-senpai! You saved me there." Kumiko said as she was panting,

"Ah. Fuji, Oishi, Eiji."

Tezuka Kunimitsu's voice stormed out as he saw his fellow regulars inside their house, just by the door.

"Saa Tezuka. You won't mind if we visited you, right?" Fuji said as he looked at Tezuka, who just sighed and told them, "Come in."

"Please excuse us for intruding!" The three said as they went inside,

"Eto, I'll be making tea. Onii-chan, do you want some?" Kumiko asked as she led the regulars in,

"Hai." Tezuka said as he nodded and Kumiko went to the kitchen,

"Tell me why you are here or you'll be running 20 laps around the town." Tezuka said as Eiji hid in the back of Oishi,

"Saa, I thought I sent you a message that I'd be visiting with Oishi and Eiji." Fuji replied as Tezuka took a look on his phone and was able to see the said message,

"Next time, please do call me in our phone." Tezuka said as he sighed,

"Eto, sumimasen, tea?" Kumiko said as she went in the room and placed the tea from the tray,

"Hoi! Hoi! Tezuka-chan! What's this tea, nyaa?" Eiji asked,

"Eto, milk tea? I thought that maybe green tea wouldn't suit Eiji-senpai's taste, and so I thought that milk tea might do, especially since it's snowing." Kumiko said as she took the tray,

"Nyaaa! Arigato Tezuka-chan!!!' Eiji said as glomped on Kumiko,

"Hai, Dou itashimashite, senpai. Sumimasen." Kumiko said as Eiji got off Kumiko, who went out the room,

"Saa, Tezuka, what will you do if I tell you that Yukimura-san declared war towards me, or was it I?" Fuji said as Tezuka's eyes narrowed,

"What do you mean, Fuji? What's this war about?" Tezuka asked as he looked at Fuji,

"Saa, it's about Tezuka-chan." Fuji said as he stood up,

"What about Kumiko?"

"Saa, it's what you call hm... A Declaration of War towards love, was it?" Fuji said as Oishi and Eiji were gaping,

Tezuka narrowed his eyes and sighed,

"It's not in my power to stop you from liking my younger sister, but if possible, please do stay away from her, if you have bad intentions." Tezuka said as the Golden Pair was still in shock,

"Saa, I suppose I have none." Fuji replied as he tilted his head,


Meanwhile...

Kumiko was just upstairs, looking at the outside while those what happened downstairs happened. She had no absolute idea what was going on downstairs as 'It's bad to eavesdrop on other people' or something like that. She sighed until she saw something blue at the outside, or rather something or perhaps, some one with blue hair outside with a few people.

"Seiichi-kun?" Kumiko tried to recognize the person and she looked at the mirror and tried to groom herself, even just for a minute and ran downstairs,

DING DONG

"I'll get it!" Kumiko said as she ran towards the door and saw a certain blue-headed person from Rikkai Dai with two other people: a person in a cap and a person with curly hair,

"Eh? Who's that, nyaa?" Eiji asked as he looked at the direction towards the door,

"Seiichi-kun! Sanada-san! Kirihara-san! Hissashiburi, neh!" Kumiko said as she stood by the door,

"Saa, Kumiko-chan, hissashiburi!" Seiichi said as he tilted his head,

"Eh? Rikkai Dai?" Oishi asked as he heard Kumiko's voice,

"Eto, come in! Come in! It's snowing, you know!" Kumiko said as she led the three inside,

"Eto, Onii-chan! Seiichi-kun, Sanada-san, and Kirihara-san are here." Kumiko told her brother as she went near her Onii-chan, who was sighing and massaging his temples,

"Anou, I'll make more milk tea." Kumiko said as she took the teapot and went inside the kitchen,

"Yukimura." Tezuka called the buchou of the Rikkai Dai Tennis Club,

"Saa, Tezuka-san. Oishi-san, Eiji-san and Fuji." Seiichi acknowledged,

"Nyaa!" Eiji said as Oishi nodded,

"I told Tezuka about what happened the last time we saw each other." Fuji told the blue-haired lad who perked up and said,

"I see. But then, Tezuka, to be rest assured, this time, I will take no for an answer if Kumiko-chan, however, chooses Fuji."

Tezuka sighed and replied, "Again, it is not in my power to stop you from liking my younger sister, but if you have bad intentions towards her, then please stay away from her."

"Saa, I don't have. And I'm sure of it." Seiichi said as he tilted his head,

"Milk tea, minna-san? Eto, anou, it's kinda cold outside, so I thought that milk tea would be appropriate." Kumiko said as she went in the room with a tray full of cups and a teapot,

"Arigato, Kumiko-chan."

"Dou itashimashite Seiichi-kun."

They smiled at each other as Fuji went near her and said, "Let me take that tray, it might be heavy."

"Arigato Fuji-senpai."

"Saa, betsuni." He replied as he took the tray from her and placed it on the table.

The two continued on with Kumiko, taking turns in doing favors or doing something good for her, despite other people being there.



jychan: Now, I'd like to thank Saku Mar Echizen Potter, AuroraxHime, sayume214, unknown player, Dragon Reverb for their reviews!!! Finally, I've got lots of reviews... T-T (tears of joy!)

AuroraXHime: I'm glad you liked the chapter... Yup, a double ending it is...

Saku Mar Echizen Potter: Did I get that right?? Hehehe! I'm glad you liked Bumped! I've already updated, and so it's this one. I hope you'll like it.

sayume214: Yup. It's longer. Well, the ending (I already made the 2 endings, but I don't know with the in-between chapters) is quite dramatic... Like so many tears and etc.. Especially with Fuji's ending!

Dragon Reverb: It took her long enough especially since she's so close with the two... How I wish I was Kumiko.. Having suitors like Fuji and Yukimura...

unknown player: yes... How we wish math was like that... well, it's kinda like a review from what we learned in 1st year HS.... Yup. I'm currently a freshman in HS, here in the Philippines... Well, I hope you didn't have a nosebleed over there... ^_^
