Chapter 2 - Chapter 1

"EHHHHHH!! REALLY?!!"

Ukai Akane Exclaimed at her cousin.

on that weekend day, since Akane was staying at the school's dormitories and was given a weekend off from supervising the boys, she decided to visit her only cousin to spend some quality time with him.

To just find out that she has to help him man on the family farm.

"yeah" Ukai Keishin monotonously replied focusing his eyes on the dirt road ahead

while driving the small yellow cubic truck.

"wow looks like there is really someone going to follow Granddad's footsteps on coaching Karasuno" she chuckles accompanied by elbowing her cousin's stomach and the wiggling of her eyebrows.

"shut up you aggressive red demon, but what can I say,

They now have a strong offensive team, but their defense is full of holes,

I cannot let my Kohais trample the name of Karasuno furthermore.

Besides, I'm only coaching them until the end of the practice match".

"practice match?" she questioned while tilting her head to the side.

"oh I didn't tell you didn't I?" he said, his hand steering the wheel while the other scratch the nape of his neck.

"Obviously," she said like it's the obvious thing on Earth.

"It's a practice match between Karasuno High and..."

he slowed to make his cousin anticipate and to surprise her with the news.

"and???" she took the bait.

"Nekoma Highschool," he said preparing his ears for the worst.

.

.

.

.

"NEKOMAAAAA?????!!!!!!"she screech on her cousin's ears.

there it is, the agony.

"yeah! now shut up, my ears ringing due to your inhumane shouts" he said while rubbing his hand on his ears.

"but Keishin, NEKOMA!! WHEN???!!!"

She shouted again irritating the hell out of her cousin.

He then used his palm to cover the young lady's face to shut her up.

"Keishin stawp~" she whined.

"On the last day of Golden Week, we have already arranged the venue and time of the match" he sighed while parking the truck on the side of the dirt road.

"Ahhh~~ Wrong timing!" she said clutching her hair after exiting from the passenger door.

"don't tell me, you won't be able to watch the game?" Keishin took the baskets out from behind the truck, his eyebrows scrunched together.

" yeah, we are going to have intensive training that week too, and I had already said to the coaches that I would be there".

she pouted after tying her long hair in a tight ponytail.

"it would be my first time to miss the practice match between CATS VS CROWS," she sighs before continuing," Tell Nekomata-sensei I said 'hi', and tell him the reason why I cannot come and watch" she pouted, while she was surrounded by depression lines.

"ha! sucks to be you"

Keishin said while carrying the baskets towards the field leaving her, smirking at the redhead.

"shut up, you stock up crow"

she stuck her tongue out.

"come here and help me, these beans won't pluck by themselves, you misplaced baby crow".

..................

"So how's your training?" he asked while picking some beans.

"it's okay, but the travel towards Tokyo and back is the only thing that's tiring *sigh.

If only they didn't make that rule I could still continue on playing in the inter-high here" she replied while placing the bean in her basket and raised her head towards the blue sky.

"even though your team has disbanded,

you still want to play don't you??" Keishin plucks the bean from its strings, reading his cousin's mind.

"yeah, but we disbanded for a reason ya'know, my Senpai's the one that suggested it and I agreed because of what coach had offered." she plucks another bean.

"And it really helps me focus on helping the boys team, and it is actually a fun experience being their manager" she genuinely smiled at herself.

"But still you wanna play, don't ya?" he stands and patted his hands on his pants.

"Of course I wanna play, but don't worry about me, I am already contented on being the student coach and manager of the team.

Besides, I may not part on the inter-high nor the spring tournament here but I am part on something much bigger," she stands while lifting her clutched hand towards her cousin.

he grinned at her ,

"I will work hard to win and make Japan Proud, on the international leagues! "

she smirks as her eyes sparkled with determination and excitement.

"Heh, that's my girl, but my boys will win, on will go to the Nationals" Keishin smirked while raising his fist at her.

"THAT'S A PROMISE" They both sealed their promise at one another by bumping their fists.

I KNOW IT'S SHORT SO FORGIVE ME! 😰😰
