Vixen Libero

Ch.24 Catch Feels

"At least be jealous of me going to the training camp, ya ass." Atsumu huffs as they walked to school. "Mika, he's acting all tough."

Osamu just deadpans and shrugs while being close with Kimika who's snuggled up for the cold air of the end of fall. Kimika giggles at their bickering once again as she brushed her shoulder with his. "I am. But like I said, you have more passion than I." Kimika somehow felt sad as they walked. Emiko and Miyoko wanted to go to their usual time and Kimika wanted to go with them--well, with Osamu but having Atsumu their will complete the trio anyway.

Father found Osamu amusing. He didn't really compared them but he found him interesting enough to have him around his princess.

"Tsumu, you better be nice to the boys who you'll be playing with." Kimika reminds.

"That's why I have ya." Tsumu grinned confidently, to Osamu's annoyance as he side glanced at his brother. "Ya can tell them how much of a badass setter I am."

"As if." Kimika scoffs. "Your skills are not notoriously subtle."

"Thank ya, Mika~" Tsumu's eyes sparkled as his twin was now bored of this topic. "Ya heard that Samu."

"I ain't deaf."

Kimika sighed softly as she heard them bickering once again. She didn't mind as she was brushing her arm against Osamu's.

"He's leaving again!" Mishi whines as she buried her head on top of the desk at lunch. "What if he meets someone who's so cool up there?"!

"He can be a showoff." Kimika shrugs as she's aware of the eyes that bore on her. Many were 1st years—fangirls. She sat at an empty seat, hoping it's not anyone who loves to pick a fight. "And trust me, he isn't leading you on."

Mishi's eye peeked out from her arm, behind her shoulder-length hair. "You sure, Kimika-chan? I mean, you would tell me if there was some girl he met in the summer."

Kimika nods reassuringly. "You know, I wasn't suppose to tell you this, but—."

"What is it!?" She abruptly stood up and stared at me while I heard little to silence in the background. Blinking my emerald eyes on them as I turned my head slightly to warn them for eavesdropping an upperclassman like me—whom I don't want to use this as an advantage to get what I want—should respect my friend's privacy and business.

I really hope she didn't reach out to anyone else for this matter. Or else it'll ruin her. Just like me.

"He was worried of not being able to give you quality time."

Mishi blushes madly and squeals in her hands. "Wait, what?" Mishi fidgets and looks like her heart will explode. "Him? Like that? It's adorable!"

I chuckled at her reaction. She got the idea of not telling him or mention volleyball out loud when we spend time. I even tell Tsumu the same thing but he didn't care what others think about him courting or seeing a 1st year who isn't familiar with volleyball.

"I'm serious, Mika. I like Mishi-chan." He confessed when he came over with Osamu. We were playing cards in my room on the floor all while Mamoru was chilling on the bed, watching us play. "Idk, I feel like I did showed it her."

"Ya should tell her after school or maybe call her at night to check in and tell her how much you'll miss her, then." I suggested and his eyes sparkled like an idiot who doesn't know anything but volleyball.

"That's a great idea, Mika!" Tsumu slaps Osamu's shoulder—he was laying his head on my thigh with his cards in hand—idk if he cared for me snooping at his cards—but he wasn't so happy about Tsumu hitting him as he placed a card down on a pile. "Ya lazy ass, why don't ya do that with Mika."
