Kuroko POV

I wade through the crowd of people remaining undetected, not that it took too much effort in my part i just can't seem to help it.

I look around at the scenery, its change so much since i left 14 years ago, but still very nostalgic, since people were speaking japanese instead of russian.

As i make my way to my first destination before heading to my new penthouse,my foster father bought for me, i notice from my peripheral vision a basketball court catches my attention, the same basketball court i first challenged Kagami Taiga, my 2nd light, a valuable friend that helped me get the Generation of Miracles love basketball again.

The memory makes me smile, remembering Kagami-kun's face when he found out how much i sucked. i continued to my destination.

-General POV-

Just as the shadow walks away from the basketball court, two other figures arrives to the court.

"Ahomine! Someone might Recognise us! Let's just one-on-one back at the club!"

"Bakagami, stop being a little bitch, clearly no one is here besides, it gets too crowded there, it's hard to concentrate with girl's high pitched screaming "

Too busy bickering that they didn't notice their shadow that just turned a corner.

-Kuroko's POV-

"Large Vanilla Milkshake please"

After Ordering my lunch, i continued my walk to my new place.

I decided to walk to my place since it's not to far, also i wanted to see what has changed in the area.

As i round a corner to where my new place should be located, its a luxurious apartment complex with 10 regular 3 bedroom apartments and 4 Penthouses that has 2 floors each. I got the penthouse at the very top which is the most luxurious one , since the roof top has it's own basketball court exclusive to the Penthouse 4.

What is most amazing about the basketball court is that it has a swimming pool under it. The ground folds into the ground to open the pool.

'what am i even going to do with so much space anyway?'

i notice a bakery that didn't use to be there, a very welcoming aroma could be smelled from all the way where i was, which was 8 steps away .

deciding to check it out and maybe buy something to actually lunch other than my usual Vanilla milkshake, i make my way to wards the bakery's entrance, noticing a announcement sign that indicates that the establishment would be closed for the next 6 months starting December X 20XX, which is next week Monday.

'what a shame, just when i just arrived here i could only enjoy it for another week before it closes for 6 months', sighing i open the door, which cause the little bell to ring announcing there is a customer.

Inside the bakery was bread, and pastry heaven, everything seemed to glow a heavenly light like i entered a different world.

There was different kinds of breads and pastry breads and cakes i couldn't choose what to have.

"Hi, having trouble picking?", A girl who i assumed works in the establishment popped out of nowhere. She looks like she is just in her late teens. Brown hair pulled up in a messy bun, wearing an apron with the establishment logo 'Pan heaven'. Well this place sure does live up to it's name.

"uh, yeah this place is amazing" i take a sip of my milkshake. "everything looks great"

"well, i'd like to say they are all great, Atsushi-chan is an expert at coming up with delicious ideas, while Tatsu-chan, makes sure Atsushi-chan don't go over board with the sugar", the girl is clearly fond of these individuals.

'i like this girl, she's really nice and seem to really like her job. It's hard to find that these days.'

"anyway, i could help you out with choosing" the girl helpfully offers.

"oh! No i wouldn't want to be a bother", 14 years of living at france where the people who were around me thoguht they were better than me .. well i showed them.

I pushed away my bitter thoughts a placed my concentration back to the girl.

"oh non-sense, it's not very busy during this hour, as you can see", she makes a gesture around the place indicating im the only customer at the moment

"well alright", giving in to her kind gesture.

"ok!, now what are you after, sweet, savoury, plain bread?"

"hmm ,let's go with sweet to go with my milkshake"

"oh! You know what Atsushi-chan recently created a new product, that you would surely like !" she clapped her hands together as the girl thought of a great suggestion. "this way please"

She leads the new customer to the next isle where the new product was.

As they make their way to their short destination a tiny bit of purple hair could be seen from the little window that connects the kitchen and the front counter. Which went unnoticed by the bluenette.

"Here they are" she gestures to a neatly stacked bread .

'huh? These pans are basketball shaped .. kawaii.. *sniff* smells alot like vanilla .. wait! It is vanilla' bending down i took a long whiff of the heavenly aroma of vanilla while sipping the last of my milkshake.

-General POV-

'Atsushi? Could you get Asami, i just need to confirm something from her quickly?" Himuro Tatsuya Co-owner/ Lover of Murasakibara Atsushi called from the office at the back of the establishment.

"Haaaaiiiii", Atsushi quickly peeks out of the little open space on the wall that allow the front counter person to communicate with the bakers.

Atsushi bends down a bit to look around the store and locates Asami by one of the isle clearly talking to some one who is on their haunches, while Asami explains to them the new product.

The vanilla milkshake pan Murasakibara Created as one of his childish ideas to lure a Kurochin out from hiding. But really the gentle giant created the new product because he recently started missing his snack buddy and unconsciously made vanilla milkshake flavour custard when making custard for the custard bun he was making and ust decided to keep it .

Noticing that she is occupied he moved away from the little hole in the walk, which he like to call considering his large size, just as the customer stood up.

"MuurooChiiiinn, Asachin is helping a customer right now."

"Oh, that's fine then, just call her when the customer is gone"

"haaaaiiiii"

-Kuroko POV-

"uhh, th-thanks for purchasing..." The girl finish packing the last bag of vanilla milkshake pans and hands them to me, anime sweat on her head as she hands the big bag holding 7 smaller bags to Tetsuya-san.

Each bag contains 5 pans and i have 7 bags.

After smelling the heavenly smell of the pans, the girl generously suggested for me to try one and insisted it would be fine. After tasting one it was like biting a mouth full of cloud, it was soft, softer than a sponge cake and what's even better... it tasted like vanilla milkshake. The pan was like a custard bun and the custard inside was vanilla milkshake flavored!

So i bought all 35 that was displayed. I, Kuroko Tetsuya fond something else much more delicious that vanilla milkshake From Maji Burgers.

Vanilla milkshake Pan from Pan Heaven,

'Clearly this Atsushi-chan is a genious who deserves an award or ten.'

I grab the large bag of pans from the girl.

"Arigatou, Asami-kun" i bowed as i exit the bakery, to finally go to my new place across the street.

I entered the lobby of the large Luxury apartment complex's lobby holding my big bag of Pans. While munching on one.

Inside the lobby is a quant little bar, a waiting area, toilets, a cafe/restaurant and the reception desk.

I make my way towards the reception desk to receive my penthouse key. And as usual i remained un noticed by the receptionist typing away on her computer, once in a while ruffling through some documents showing no signs that she knows anyone is infront of her.

I greet her once... twice... and a third time.

"... Domo?", i greeted catching the receptionist's attention and also startling her. They always seem so startle people even though i never raise my voice when greeting them.

"hyaa! Oh! How long have you been there?" the receptionist exclaimed, as she grips the back of her chair to stay in balance while her other hand is against her heart.

"i've been here a while, i said hello a few time actually." I stare at her blankly, but sighed and smile to indicate it fine. "im used to it".

"my apologies" she clears her throat regaining her composure. "Welcome to Haruka Luxury Apartments, Right, how may i help you?"

"im Tetsuya, Kuroko Tetsuya, im moving in today and im told to receive my keys from reception", explained.

As the lady hears my name she typed away checking her system for any information about me.

"Kuroko—Ah! Yes there is a Tetsuya Kuroko-Ivanov here." The receptionist confirms.

'oh, that's right, It's Ivanov Now. Im lucky my distant family allowed me to keep my old last name' my heart aches remembering 'the Accident'.

I feel my right hand on my head, unconsciously touching the scar i got from the surgery.

"right, Ivanov, Kuroko-Ivanov".

"do you have any identification just to confirm your identity".

I hand her my Russian passport, that contains a Photo of me, whole name and birth date. She inspects it closely compares the picture and my face.

"mhhmm, Kuroko- ivanov Tetsuya, Age 29, my you looks younger than 29." She hands back my passport and turns around to retrieve my keys from a locked closet behind her and retrieved Two keycards both and hands them to me.

"it says here your room is on the top floor so that's Penthouse 4, to use the elevator there are no buttons to any of the floors above, all you need is to swipe your keycard and it will take you to your Penthouse, the only buttons in the elevator is the Lobby, Underground Carpark and Emergency"

She continued to give me instructions and information about the facilities available, apparent there is a swimming pool at the back of the building and a gym area.

She hands me a Booklet that is given to new Haruka tenants. It contained fire drill instructions, important phone numbers, instructions and rules and regulations.

I finish talking to the receptionist and make my way to the elevators which is directly towards the right from reception.

there are 4 in total, they are one of those glass walled elevators so you could see the scenery outside as you go up or down, i swiped my card to summon the elevator, the elevator dings immediately opens and i entered and instantly swiped my card and P4 Lights up at the top of the elevator door. And the elevator door closed

-General POV-

As the elevator kuroko rode closed the elevator door next to his dinged open and a person walked out heading outside to stop by the bakery, buy some pan, and head to the basketball court to meet up with his boyfriend.

'quickly stop by the bakery buy some yummy bread made by Murasakibaracchi and Himurocchi. Oh! And Asami-chan and then meet up with Kagamicchii and my Aominecchii, for a little basketball.' Kise Ryouta Skipping with every step, clearly excited since he's done all the work he needed to do for the next 6 months and totally prepared for the long awaited holiday.

Perks of being your own boss you can choose your own holiday dates no mater how long, as long as work is done to compensate how long you are gone of course.

As he head to the front door of the building he greets the receptionist lady a 'good day'

Unaware that a new tenant has moved in.

-Kuroko's POV-

The elevator door opens and a hall way greets him the walls were half wooden and half painted in deep red, the half line that separated the two materials had elegant looking patterns carved on it.

There was two doors, one door leads to the gated roof top where the basketball/swimming pool is and the other door is the penthouse's front door

I made my way towards my front door, the wall beside my door has a another flat card swiper to unlock the door.

I swipe my card and opened the door.

I adjust my back pack and the bag of milkshake pan walked in.

The place was huge, probably a bit too big for a single person to live in, 6 other people could live in here and still have room for more.

I placed down my stuff on the sofa that already came with the penthouse.

My gaze is fixed on the big window where a 4th wall should be standing. The penthouse has a high ceiling, 3 walls and a giant wall like window that show a stunning view of Tokyo, the design is very modern and very open, the living room is in the middle of the first floor, at the right of the living room is the kitchen, with a counter top with a decent sized sink, an attached dishwasher and trash bin, along the wall is another counter with a cooking station complete with an oven 4 plate stove and microwave and beside the counter is a large double door fridge. in between kitchen and living room is a table set that seats 6 people.

At the left side of the living room is a stair case that leads to the second floor under the stair case is toilet room , the second floor has Guest rooms, a Study, a bathroom with a toilet and the Master bedroom with an attached bathroom with a toilet and just like the living room one wall is just a window except this one has special curtains that will cover the whole window.

'what in the world am i gunna do with 4 bedrooms? And all this space *sigh* Papka spils me too much'

After My not so little tour od the pent house i slumped on my sofa, jet lag finally catching up to me.

I sighed, " okairi".
