"I-I'm not sure what you mean," she says startled, "you don't want to go home?"

"No......I wanna stay with you...in Japan.....forever," you manage.

"I-I'm sure that can be arranged I don't think they will make you return once you graduate," she starts crying, "you really wanna stay with me."

"Yeah," you reply hugging your new sister, "I wanna try having a real family."

"We need to have a big dinner to celebrate!" She exclaims, wiping the tears that fall from her eyes.

You just nod. You might not be able to tell her everything right now, but you think that might be able to change soon.

"I'll skip school tomorrow to get it all settled," she exclaims as you start walking home.

"We can wait until we have a day off," you try to reason. You were excited, too, but you still wanted to make sure your sister was being responsible.

"Nonsense," she replies, "plus our class is doing a combined session with Iwaizumi's tomorrow and I don't think I can yet."

"You're going to have to sometime," you remind her.

"I know," she sighs, "but I'm not ready yet."


You walk into the apartment building and Hana turns the key in the doorknob. You walk into the house. Home sweet home. 

It was going to be your home for longer than you originally thought. It was a home where you could come back to and feel loved.

"Do you know if you still like Iwa yet?" You question as Hana heads into the kitchen to make a giant celebration dinner, despite how late it is.

"No," she replies, "I wish I did. It's all so confusing!"

"Aren't all boys," you sigh remembering how you never really know what the team is going to do next. 

"How about you?" She asks.

"I don't know what you mean," you say fully knowing what she is implying.

"You help coach a bunch of boys," she sighs, "do you think you like any of them yet?"

"I think I'm ready to really see them as friends," you mess with her, "I don't think they're anything like the girls back at my old school."

"Yn you know I mean like like," she complains as she throws the food she was making into the oven.

"Yeah, I'm starting to like them as like friends," you say continuing to enjoy messing with her, "I said two likes just like you did."

"Do you like any of them like I like Iwa," she asks without thinking.

"I think there's your answer to the last conversation," you say as she realizes what she said.

"I guess so," she giggles, "didn't realize that was how I was gonna find out."

"Me neither," you say smiling.

"So, what do I do now?" She questions more to herself than you, but you were gonna answer anyways.

"Stop ignoring him for one," you suggest. You had successfully managed to change the conversation.

"I know," she sighs, "but we're still having a girls day tomorrow right?"

"I wasn't aware I was skipping school as well," you pretend to be annoyed but end up laughing instead. You had a feeling this was going to happen.
