jychan: I don't own Prince Of Tennis!!!..
17. How Kumiko woke up
Recap:
"Kumiko?" Tezuka saw her sister, who ran towards him,
"O-Onii-chan..." She said as she fainted.
End Of Recap:
"Tezuka Kumiko-chan, it's me."
Eh? You? Your voice. It seems familiar. But I can't recognize who owns that voice.
"Well, I hope you're OK already. It's time for you to wake up. And I'm sorry about earlier."
The voice... It's... It's so feminine...
Seiichi-kun, is that you?
"I hope you'll wake up already. I'm very much worried of you, well, actually it's we."
Or is it Fuji-senpai?
"Hmmm... The others are here already. I suppose I have to go already. Ja."
My head hurts. I can't open my eyes, but I can hear the person's voice. But I wonder who the person is. I can't figure out who was talking to me.
Normal POV
"Hoi! Hoi! Tezuka-chan! Wake up already! Nya! You've been staying here for a day! Tezuka-chan! Nya! Please wake up already!"
Eiji's voice stormed out the room as they were in Kumiko's room,
"How is she already, Tezuka?" Oishi asked his buchou, who was on a side,
"She doesn't seem to have any fever. Her temperature's normal. There's no reason for her to faint, after all. It's just probably fatigue. Or, she was not used to the weather, but I wonder since London also has the same weather with us." He said as he stared at the limp Kumiko on the bed,
"I hope she's fine already. She's been there already for a day." Oishi said,
"Luckily, she fainted just before me. So, I was able to catch her and carry her home." Tezuka said as he massaged his temples,
"Nya! I wonder what happened that made her faint..." Eiji said as he frowned,
"Yukimura was not already with her when she fainted." Tezuka said,
"In which, he even called us to see if Kumiko had already arrived home. And when he knew that Tezuka-chan fainted, he even rushed here to see her." Oishi said as he sighed,
"Nya... Don't you think Tezuka-chan already knows how they feel towards her, nya?" Eiji asked,
"I don't think so. Thinking it's Kumiko, she might have thought that the strange atmosphere earlier was because our teams were former rivals." Tezuka said as the three sighed,
"Seriously, Tezuka, I didn't know that you're sister was really innocent and oblivious to her surroundings." Eiji said,
"Nonetheless, it's fine that she's like this, though. At least, she's not bothered with how the two feel with her. Especially since the two are good acquaintances of hers." Tezuka said,
"But then, at this rate, Fuji and Yukimura would be hurt, nya." Eiji replied,
"But it seems your sister might be already feeling something towards the two, although she just thinks of it as a platonic kind. Or rather, she doesn't think much about it." Oishi said as the two looked at him,
"Eh?" Eiji asked,
"Hai. One time, she called me concerning about some things that when she thought she was feeling sick and tried to ask me if she had to go to the doctor si-"
"Ughh..." Kumiko's voice went out as she was stirring, and trying to open her eyes,
"Tezuka-chan?" Eiji called
"Tezuka-chan, daijoubou desu ka?" Oishi asked as he reverted to 'Mother Hen' mode,
"Ah, daijoubou, Oishi-senpai. Just kinda dizzy. Last thing I remember was darkness. By the way, who has been here earlier?" She asked as she sat down,
"Ah, Fuji and Yukimura-san has been here earlier." Oishi said as Tezuka nodded to what he said,
"Eh? Seiichi-kun and Fuji-senpai did?" She asked,
'So, it was really either of the two who told me to get well.' She thought as she narrowed her eyes,
"Doushite ka, Tezuka-chan? Are you hurt somewhere?" Oishi asked as Kumiko was back to reality,
"Eto, I was just thinking about some things, Oishi-senpai." Kumiko replied as she shook her head,
"Are you sure you're OK already, Tezuka-chan?" Oishi asked as he was again on 'Mother Hen' mode,
"Hai! Hai! Although I feel a bit thirsty right now..." Kumiko murmured as Oishi and Eiji got up and went down quickly,
"Onii-chan."
"Kumiko? Are you feeling well now?" Tezuka asked as he sat on Kumiko's bed,
"Hai, Onii-chan... And also, sorry for the trouble, when I'm supposed to be also helping you." Kumiko apologized as Tezuka sighed and patted her head,
"Just take care of yourself. That would help me a lot. Yudan sezu ni iko." The buchou of the Tennis Club reminded his sister, who nodded,
"Hai Onii-chan. Arigato."
"Water for Tezuka-chan!" Oishi and Eiji said as they went in, panting,
"Oishi-senpai, Eiji-senpai..." Kumiko said as she sweatdropped as the two gave Kumiko some water,
"Arigato." Kumiko thanked the two while smiling,
"Nya! We better go now. It's already late. Nya! Ja Buchou, Tezuka-chan, Oishi!" Eiji said as he left,
"I also have to go now. I still have to do some things. Ja minna. Take care Tezuka-chan." Oishi said as he also left,
"I'll just close the door downstairs." Tezuka said as Kumiko nodded while he left her room,
She sighed and took out something from her pocket.
"Seiichi-kun..." She murmured as she looked at the handkerchief,
She sighed and stood up and looked at the outside through her window,
"I wonder who the girl Fuji-senpai was referring to. I'm kinda estatic to know who." Kumiko whispered,
jychan: Now, I'd like to thank AuroraXHime, Saku Mar Echizen Potter, sayume214, unknown player, ksm013, Dragon Reverb for their reviews!!! Finally, I've got lots of reviews... T-T (tears of joy!) Waa... It's such a good birthday gift to me, well my birthday's tomorrow!!!! Gonna be a teenager... Finally....
AuroraXHime: I have no idea who Kumiko likes... It's still too early... But I was planning to have a double ending for everyone's sake... And Cappuccino's already coming to an end... Despite how much I don't want to retire yet with Cappuccino... Should I write a sequel for it???
Saku Mar Echizen Potter: Woo! Did I get that right? Sakumi-san, I really appreciate you for liking Bumped, despite some times that there would be OOC's, grammar errors, and typographical errors... Hontou ni gomen nassai... Oh, I'm OK with your English, I'm even wondering if you're OK with my English... I don't think Tezuka would beat someone, as that would be really big trouble and if he beats someone, it might be reported then he can't play tennis anymore or worse, be expelled from SEIGAKU!!!!
sayume214: Indeed, I envy Kumiko-chan... But don't worry there's a double ending... So you could see how Kumiko ends up with either Fuji or Seiichi!
unknown player: Despite how much I try to be much boyish, but I'm still a girl... XUHS is already CO-ED! Thank GOD... Because if not, I'll have to go to another prestigious all-girls school (it's already CO-ED now, since XU went CO-ED), wearing pink uniforms! The horror with pink. Luckily, the uniform in XUHS is blue! Yup... I hate the waitress for disrupting Kumiko and Seiichi... Geesh.. Why does everyone have to bother the two... LOL... I'm gonna make a double ending for everyone's sake, is that fine?
ksm013: Yup.. I even wonder how Tezuka became her brother, when he's all-knowing and not oblivious... Oh... Don't worry, I already thought about it and finally decided that it would be a double ending... LOL
Dragon Reverb: Eh? Really? Thanks!!!
