Kofume:.... tsu... tsu-kun.
Kuroo: kofume.
Kofume: .... nii-san told you huh...
Kenma: you wanted me to. Isn't it?
Flashback ~
Kofume: nii-san... I'm going out.
Kenma: um.
Kofume: with yatori. It's a deal. He might reject nekoma's application... he has ties with the association... bye.
End ~
Kuroo: I saw... it.
Kofume squeezes the handle of her bag " ...are you angry?"
He hugs and squeezes her " you bet. I've never felt so useless before. And kenma texted me only when you were coming home."
Her tears started to fall " gomen... I... I... wanted all of you to still be able to compete..." He squeezes her harder " no. It's not your fault. I'm not letting you go again."
Kofume:... ha... hai.

The day of the competition...
Kuroo: so you're the captain of the team? Bastard.
Takeri: ah. Kuroo. Gomen.
Kuroo: what?
Takeri: I... realised it.
Kuroo: huh?
Takeri: I can't take her away from you. All she thinks is you... we went to the cafe... she talks about sharing desserts with you. She wouldn't even let me share the same desserts with her even if she liked blueberry cake a lot. Even when shopping... she looks at couple bear keychains... her eyes when she talks about you... it lits up. She's... happy. Happier than with me.
Kuroo: you...
Takeri: let's play a good game.
Kuroo smiles " you bet."
