My Voice - Tsukishima Kei

16-Battle of the Boobs

"AKITERU-KUN YOU BROUGHT A FOREIGNER?! AND HER BOOBS ARE BIGGER THAN MINE!"

I flinch back a bit as the small blonde woman runs up to me.

"Baby, what's the point of these if you aren't going to show them off?" She points at my chest.

I quickly wrap my arms over myself, kind of scared.

"Lower your voice! I don't want Kei to know I'm here." Akiteru hushes the woman, stepping in front of me to put distance between us. "And she's a high schooler, calm down."

"High school?! She has those in high school??" Akiteru apologizes to me, leading the blonde girl away.

I lower my arms, letting myself relax. When I look to my side I see two grown men and one little girl staring at me. The little girl is shaking as if she's scared.

"Hello! You're Akiteru's friend? My name is Takinoue! This is Shimada, we're his friends as well." The blonde guy waves, giving a polite smile.

"N-Nice to meet you." I bow. "I'm actually a friend of Kei." I say shyly, walking over to them.

"Kei has friends other than Yamaguchi?" Takinoue frowns.

"Ah, we're dating." I chuckle awkwardly.

"Oh! Yamaguchi did mention someone stealing his- never mind." Shimada quickly cuts himself off.

I look towards the girl and give her a smile.

"Hello."

"H-H-H-H-HELLO!" She violently bows.

I take a few steps back, my eyes widening. She's intense.

"Don't mind her! She's really intimidated by...uh, everything. Especially women who are..."

"VERY FILLED OUT!" The blonde girl falls to her knees, putting her head in her hands. "Why is there so many beautiful women with big boobs? You even have a nice butt!"

Ah...I'm scared.

"Akiteru-Kun...I don't understand anything anyone is saying." I blink, looking down at the court.

It feels like the man on the speaker as well as the television crews are all speaking a different language. I don't understand a thing.

"I didn't study any volleyball terms in Japanese. Like I know the rules and everything, but I have no idea what they're saying." I frown.

"Oh, Yachi-San is good with English and will probably translate better than I can." He laughs, calling the blonde girl over.

I look down at her for a moment and her face immediately flares up. I cover my mouth but it's no use. I'm thrown into a fit of giggles.

"Is there something on my face?!" She asks worriedly but I shake my head.

"No! It's just that I feel so huge compared to you. It's like that with a lot of people here actually. Back home I'm like average or a little taller than average. But here I'm like a giant- I'm like a foot taller than you! You're really cute Yachi-San." I chuckle.

Her eyes widen and she covers her eyes with her arm.

"A beautiful foreigner called me cute! I'm just going to die now."

Yeah...scary.

After she calms down, we watch the game as she translates the words into English. I tried memorizing them the best I can on the spot.

Whenever Tsukishima came onto the court I made sure to cheer for him so he can hear me above everyone else, remembering him saying he wanted to hear me cheer for him. Before the game as well, he said he better hear me more than he hears his own teammates, and I plan to keep that promise.
