Chapter 83: Another day in Kanto

"Eh?! Really?" Ayame suddenly stood from her seat from surprise. Kazumi smiled as she sets down her newspaper.

"Really" she replied "That's the reason why I went to Tokyo the other day. I had a talk with Nekomata-sensei and asked him to invite you guys as well for training, though you can only train to Kanto two times since the prefectural qualifiers are in October"

"That's still a great chance!" she said through sparkly eyes "Thank you, mom!"

She pounced on her as she hugged the woman, to which she patted her back as she was reminded by herself when she was young. Whenever she would thank Kaito, she tends to pounce on him out of excitement.

"Mom, I'm off!" she grabbed her bento and faced the altar "Dad, please watch over us. I'm off!"

Kazumi watched her daughter leave with a smile on her face. She could finally see her smiling freely and able to face her father without fear.

"Kaito, she's finally happy, huh? I hope you are glad about that" she placed her hand on his picture frame and smiled sadly "I really miss you..."

Mr. Takeda was walking on the hallway when she saw Ayame walking briskly, since running is not allowed in the hallway.

"Ayame!"

She stopped and turned around "Oh! Takeda-sensei!"

"Good timing!" he was smiling widely as he approached her "Nekomata-sensei called me earlier. Is it true that we're participating in their training in Kanto? Was it because of Kazumi-san?"

"Hai! Mom also told me earlier!"

"What a great chance! Please tell your mother we're grateful for the opportunity she gave us!" he bowed and started walking away "See you later during club activities! I'll announce this later to the team!"

"Hai!"

"Good morning, Ayame" Yamaguchi greeted her as soon she arrived in their room.

"Good morning, Tadashi-kun" she smiled as she set her bag down "Oh? Tsukishima-kun's not here yet?"

"Yeah. It's kinda surprising I'm here first than him" he told her.

"Speaking of which" she sat on the desk in front of him "They didn't bully you the other day, right?"

"Thankfully, they didn't" he sighed in relief as he covered his face "Though they were asking for details about how we started going out and...Sugawara-san gave me some advice about some things"

"Suga-san's actually quite good in giving advices" she said as she recalled the times he gave her some advices.

"Yeah" he laid his head on his desk "Say, Ayame, Daichi-san wasn't mad at me for going out with you?"

She tilted her head in confusion "Why would nii-chan be mad at that?"

"Well...he's kinda protective to you, right? Along with Nishinoya-san and Tanaka-san"

"He wasn't mad since...I told him before that I like you" she whispered sheepishly "And besides, he can't do anything about that"

"Yeah..."

They heard the classroom door open and it was the megane.

"Ah, Tsukki's here" he said.
