𝐓he Spring Interhigh has never made me stressed out way more than before. Bokuto had 2 idiotic breakdowns during the middle of our matches again—one of those breakdowns he had was about not being able to play in the big arena. He loves the big crowd and the attention if you didn't pick that up. In the end won both matches.

I watched Inarizaki vs Karasuno and the match was intense to say the least. Surprisingly, Karasuno ended up taking the victory and the next game they have is against Nekoma.

Thinking about it, I don't know who's going to go up. Nekoma has a nice flow with their plays and their defense is impeccable. However, Karasuno has been pushing through matches and has been able to study their opponents movements.

During that match I watched Atsumu and Kageyama play, and they're crazy—crazy good, ahaha. Watching them made me realize of how shitty a setter I am. The both literally went to an All-Japan Youth Training Camp, it's what they've worked for.

Their ability parameters are so high compared to me. Especially Kageyama: His technique, strategy, and stamina are ranked 5/5. Atsumu can adjust the way he sets to the spinners liking. In a past interview I watched of him he said, "My sets are easy, whoever isn't able to hit them just suck."

Sometimes I wish I could be as good as them so I could play by Bokuto's side, but I'm not as good as them, nor will I ever be. Here I go again comparing myself to other people even though I know it will hurt me. It's okay though, Atsumu and Kageyama worked hard to be where they're at; They're only going to get better from here.

How have you been my dear? I hope you're still doing well. I know I've only written 9 chapters so far and I've been typing in this book for the past 9 months. I'm an idiot really, I should've written more, but...

There's no buts. Its my fault again, like how everything I do is my fault. I just want to meet you soon, if not soon... someday.
