Warning: This chapter has to deal with heavy topics. Parental Guidance is recommended. This maybe difficult for some readers.

"LOOK OUT HINATA." I say terrified. I look at the floor and I look away from Hinata. The ball comes straight toward him. I was right next to him when I served him the ball. He was so fast it was like lightening. He hit it down on the other side of the net. He still managed to do that with two seconds to spare. I happen to get a flashback. It feels like a cold wind. This was when I was in middle school. Every step hurts me. Ever since my dad left me. I have felt so bad how I treated people in middle school. Especially Hinata. "I'M SUCH A BAD PERSON!" Every calls me king of the court. I tried to change and I'm still a bad person. Why did Daichi save me? He should of just let me die. I see everything again after the flashback. Everything changes. I feel so defeated. "Daichi I'm leaving." I start to walk out. "YOU ARE NOT PUSHING ME AWAY!" Daichi says with anger. He almost whisper yells. "I need to talk to you outside." I walk with him. "You were planning to leave us. I saw your calendar Kageyama." He wasn't supposed to know. How does he know? "Daichi, please I'm not worth anything. Let me go!" I start cry. "Kageyama your worth the world. I wouldn't trade you for anything. I saved you because you are special." My hands cover my face. "Kageyama. I will not let you leave me." He hugs me so tightly, he starts to cry. I'm so speechless. I can't move. "Kageyama, no matter what happened in the past. I will be your father. I will look over you and I won't let anything happen to you." He starts to calm down. He almost sounds so protective over me. Somehow all the words made me have a warm feeling. All my life I have had people abandon me. "You are gonna abandon me like the rest. How can I trust you?!" I say the words hurt and angry. "The difference is those people gave up on you. I will stay with you till the day I die." I start to cry harder. I almost fall. I have given up what the feeling is to be happy. How am I supposed to be happy? Dad has done so much for me. How am I supposed to return the favor. I cry softly. Suga comes out. He sees the both of us crying and we sit down on pavement. "I don't know what happened but I am here for you Kageyama." Suga says with a smile. He looks at me with so much faith. I don't feel like myself anymore. "Kageyama give Hinata time. He will come around." Suga says with confidence. I walk back into volleyball practice. "Kageyama you there?!"
