"Ugh..."

[F/n] sniffed once more before eating her soup slowly.

Koushi sat next to her , patting her back in a comforting manner.

Her actual red eyes looked numb , while her face is pale as snow.

Koushi sighed quietly , worried about his sick looking twin sister.His eyes directed to his sister's trembling fingers , barely holding the spoon correctly.

"[F/n] , you can't stay like this , alright? You're exaggerating," Koushi advised."There's no reason for him threaten you , [F/n].CHILL,"

[F/n] just sat there , still holding her spoon.

She looked at her soup while inhaling roughly , before standing up and bringing her soup to the sink , pouring the remaining to the trash.

Koushi sighed , before walking himself to the bathroom.

"I'll go take a bath first.We're leaving in 30 minutes,"

A loud thud emanated from the hallway , while the only sounds inside he house is only the water running in he bathroom.

[F/n] just nodded slightly, before washing her dirty bowl.

Her trembling hands caught her attention , making her scrunch her nose before clenching her hands in force.

The remaining walk to school was silent and awkward , due to her unusual condition and Koushi who doesn't know what else to say.

"Hei , Sugawara-kun!"

"Hei , Nao-San," Koushi waved back to the girl who just passed him , before glancing worriedly at his twin sister again.

[F/n] took off her shoes and put them in the locker , before throwing the school shoes reluctantly to the carpeted floor , sighing as she locked her shoe locker back.

"Oy , Sugawara!!"

The  twins turned their heads to the cheerful voices , meeting the gazes of a group of girls , waving excitedly.

None of the twins knew which one of them were called , so they both waved anyway.

The twins noticed the slight discomfort in their gazes as they lowered their  hands, but none of them cares.

Koushi turned back to her twin sister , who just reluctantly put her shoes on with a pale face.

"...[F/n].."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"So , if f(x) = 2x-3 , and (fog)(x)= 6x²-3 , can anybody point out the g(x)?" Miss Shimamura  turned from the whiteboard to the students who groaned silently , as they knew the playful tone of the teacher.

Everybody's anxiety : appointed to the front of the class.

So that moment, the math book became the object of everybody's interest , as their gazes avoided the young blue eyes of the eldest woman in the room.

"Hmmm...."

Ah , yes. That concerning seconds. The deciding period of life and death.

"Sugawara...?"

If you listen closely , you can hear the twin's hearts skipped a beat.

The two grey haired siblings turned to each other with panicked expression, raising their eyebrows with pursed lips.

As if their gazes said:

"Koushi.....She called you."

"No , she called you..! Stand up!"

"You're forcing someone who's depressed like me to humiliate myself in front of the class???"

"You're being dramatic.You daydreamed in class , that's why she called you!"

"You're the man , Koushi. Be a gentleman!"

"Being a male is a matter of birth.Being a gentleman is a matter of choice!"

"And..?"

"I dont wanna."

"WHY????"

"You forgot to cook me mapo tofu this week."

The grey haired girl mentally facepalmed.

How could he mention something like that in this life and death condition????

But apparently,  the woman hasn't done talking yet.

"Ah....right.Sorry..." Miss Shimamura's slender fingers slides down the list of students , stopping on a certain name.

"Sugawara [F/n]."

"...ok boomer,"

~~~

"You stooouuuupid,"

Koushi made an ugly annoying face in mockery , with a mad dwarf goblin stance while biting the chicken in his bread like a Tarzan.

[F/n] , on her table , just sat there with the same lifeless numb eyes , opening the bento she made for herself this morning.

It's recess time, where the students waste their time and do all silly things before they have to fill their brains with  tons of lessons.

And these twins , looked like a hyperactive Jimmy Neutron and Dead silent Eeyore , trying to keep up with their shared two brain cells.

Gotta say , the thing at Aoba Johsai and Shino thingies drained 80 braincells outta their brain.

"That was close!! Are you outta your mind???" Koushi chirped as he tore apart the chicken nugget in his bread sadistically."Thank goodness she doesn't know what that mean!"

"Hmm," [F/n] took her [F/c] coloured chopsticks,  before digging in her omurice.

She might have answered the question on the board correctly with 3x² , so that's not the thing she's worried about.

Them.

THE STUDENTS.

THEY ARE WATCHING HER.

THEY ARE WATCHING KOUSHI.

She nibbled on the omelet , before plopping the warm food in her mouth and just looked straight to the ground.

She recalled the moment Miss Shimamura called her name.

Koushi might not notice , nor Miss Shimamura.

But the whole class gasped.

The class soon erupted in whispers.

That....didn't look good...

She felt stares on her , but she tried her best to drive out the anxiety building up inside her.

Why are they so surprised? What's wrong with my name? I have introduced myself quite clearly , haven't I?

" Oy , [F/n]! Shouldn't you eat that real quick? The recess is going to end in a few minutes," Koushi threw the wadded plastic wraps accurately to the recycle bin , earning a few victory whistles from himself.

"I should do a lot of things but I live to disappoint, "

"[F/n] , NO,"

~~~

"Ooy , BOKE ! Get out of my way!!--"

And thus , Hinata's terrified scream filled the whole gym , alarming the three third years and a second year who are currently walking towards the gym.

The school has ended , and it's the club activities time.

"Seriously...Those two," [F/n] facepalmed silently , earning a chuckle from her twin.

They are currently just a few steps away from the gym door.

Why do I feel nervous...? This is just the volleyball club..

Daichi opened the door gym reluctantly , and skidded backwards as he was greeted by a girl.

A very pretty girl , to be exact.

She has plum coloured hair , straight on her back , swaying so lightly , and a pair of plum orbs , the dim light of the gym glazes her iris.

She tilted her head before laughing whole heartedly at Daichi's surprise face.

"Ne , ne...Daichi..You're so funny!!!" The girl chirped waving her hands gently in order to calm the dad of the team.

Who is she??

As if answering my question , Daichi remarked.

"Aah , Kurokasu-san, what are you doing here??" Daichi pressed his large hand over his thumping chest,  trying to deny the fact that he exactly looked like an old dad in his mind.

"I want to sign up as a manager here , but seems like you've got yourselves two angels on the spot," she muttered with that playful 'oh maaaan,' face swiper in Dora the Explorer always used.

But the cheerful smile on her face lit up in a blink , almost as bright as Shoyo's aura himself.

She's like my husbando Kyoju--Ah no...!!He's gonna d--

Right before [F/n] could cry over the coming up death of one of her husbando,  the girl called 'Kurokasu'  shifted her gaze on her.

"Ah ah..You're Sugawara [F/n] , right? Why hello!! So you're the girl screaming in the middle of the hallway!" The girl laughed while heat crept to [F/n]'s face.

Ugh....that...

"Ah , right! Sorry for being too buddy buddy! I'm Kurokasu Akino , also third year from class 3 !! Nice to meet you!!" The girl let it a small 'hee hee' while posing with peace sign.

Ayuwoki game..

"..you?" The girl stayed on her pose, waiting for a reply.

"Ah! I'm Sugawara [F/n] as you have known...you can call me [F/n] so you won't mess up our names.I'm in class 4 ," [F/n] bowed slightly , while the girl on her sight erupted in a flowery aura.

Koushi stared at his twin in a shocked expression.

S-She's not stuttering at all while introducing herself..!!

"Oh , so she's your acquaintance, [F/n]-senpai???" Hinata popped behind the door with a big bulge on his head , still stinging red after the big knock Kageyama had given him.

"I just met her," [F/n] replied casually.

Daichi interrupted.

"Okay , let's go in now.Kurokasu-san , you can watch us.We don't mind having the third manager..!" He chuckled before closing the gym door behind him.

The others were already inside.

"Hello , [F/n]-senpai," Ennoshita greeted her.

She flinched slightly at the sudden greetings before bowing her head slightly,  her hair purposely fell down covering her nervous face.

"U-uh hi,"

Geez , I almost forgot I was in a big trouble because of Kurokasu-San.....She sure has a cheerful and positive aura.

She made me calm.

[F/n] shook her head in order to swat away the problems in her head,  before slapping cheeks slightly with her hands.

I will not be awkward today..!

"Hey , [F/n]-senpai," Kageyama waved his hand.

"Good, thanks,"

"......"

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAÀAAAAAAAÀAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYOUSTOUUUUUPIDDLITTLESHIIITTTTTTTWHATDIDITELLYOUABOUTNOTBEINGAWKWARDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kageyama just stood there in confusion , for (1) , his senpai replied his 'hey' with something out of the blue.(2) , his senpai looked like she wanna die right that moment with forced sealed mouth and hands pulling on her hair.

"Uh...okay.." Kageyama turned around and picked a ball , deciding to forget what he just witnessed.

It must be easy for him to do that , since he doesn't even give a fuck when his middle school senpai tried to punch him for asking his senpai to teach his jump serve.

Meanwhile , a pair of honey brown eyes gazes upon the girl , who might internally screeching right now.

In the same time , Tanaka beamed up when he saw someone near Hinata.

"Hey !NOYA-SAN!"

Everybody turned to Tanaka , and then to someone who stood next to Hinata.

He has spiked up brown hair and a tuff of blond hair on his forehead.He has a big grin on his face, while his right hand clinged into his tracksuit jacket.

Another first year? But Tanaka used a honorific at him..

"Ah! Nishinoya!!" Koushi and Daichi shouted in surprise,  approaching the male.

"Hi!" The one called Nishinoya shouted back.His gaze soon averted back to [F/n].

Uh..

"Uh , hi," [F/n] waved slightly while giving a smile."I'm Suga--"

"UWOOOOOH!!!! WE GOT THREE MANAGERS IN TOTAL?????!!!!AWESOME!!" The second year has sparkles in his eyes , while he jumped excitedly.

His honey brown eyes landed on Kurokasu and [F/n] a few times.

"I'm not the manager , though! I just came here to visit!!" Kurokasu laughed a bit , making the male frown a little but smile again.

"THAT'S FINE!! WE GOT OURSELF 3 BEAUTIFUL GIRLS !!! AHAHA!!" He laughed like a maniac , while the others sweatdrop.

Three girls...the other one must be Kiyoko..

"Let me introduce," Daichi interrupted , clasping his hands together.

"This is Nishinoya , second year,"

"Hi!! You guys are first years , right??!" Noya waved to Hinata and Kageyama , but soon he scooted to Kurokasu's side real fast , taking her hand with him.

"Nee , what's your name??" He raised an eyebrow, with a dorky smile on and a visible blush.

Kurokasu , who's visibly uncomfortable , still smiled at him.

"Ahaha...I'm Kurokasu Akino, third year,"

"Ooh , nice name~~ I'm Nishinoya Yuu , but you , can call me anytime~~☆" he winked , while Kurokasu chuckled and  [F/n]'s pretty sure she heard someone gag.

His gaze turned to [F/n] , and just as what he did to Kurokasu , he scooted to her , leaning a bit closer.

"And...your name??" He wiggled his eyebrows.

Kuu: Ew.

But that made something click inside her mind.

His attitude.

REMINDS HER OF OIKAWA.

Her heart beat faster  while she stepped backwards slowly.

"I-I'm..S-Su--"

"EY EY!!!! ENOUGH WITH THE HAND CONTACT!!!" Koushi suddenly appeared between us and karate chopped the air , making Noya skid backwards in reflex.

"Ehh? Suga-San? Why???" He tilted his head.

Koushi has a dangerous closed eyes smile on his face.

"Hmmmm? Ah..I'll be the one introducing..!! She's Sugawara [F/n] , a third year," Koushi patted my back multiple times.

"Eh?"

"EEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHH??!?!?!?!??! SUGAWARA [F/N] SENPAII??????? IS SHE YOUR-"

Koushi slapped his mouth still with his smile on , making the second year go pale and sweat.

"Calm down please.We gotta practice,  remember? Practice~~~" Koushi slapped his back towards the court , the others include Daichi sweatdropped and rushed to the court in fear.

Koushi walked towards the court while peering over his shoulder , winking knowingly to [F/n].

He saved me...

Nishinoya rushed to talk to Hinata and Kageyama about something , but somehow he turned swiftly to the gym doors, spotting Kiyoko , putting off her shoes.

"KIYOKO-SAAAAAANNN!!!! I'VE COME TO SEE YOU!!!!!"

Ha.

Expected.

He ran and launched himself at the flinching third year , and soon a big slapping sound erupted in the gym.

Ouch..

But he deserves it.

[F/n] sighed while shaking her head , a smile crept into her face.

These dorks..

She felt a stare on her , and she turned to see Kurokasu , beamed up and waved at her before hopping to her side.

"[F/n]-chan!! I can call you that , right?" She giggled.

[F/n] nodded.

"Uh huh , it's fine.Can i call you Kuroka? Your last name is a bit long.." [F/n] scratched her nape.

She's fun to be around..

"Can I ask you something? I'm just curious that's all," she put her hands over [F/n]'s shoulder , since [F/n]'s just a few inches taller than her.

"Yeah , I don't mind," [F/n] smiled faintly , while the others seemed to be immersed at what they are all doing right now.

Kuroka leaned closer and smiled widely.

"What is your REAL relation with Sugawara Koushi-kun?"
