"Yeehaw."

You read, raising a brow as you looked up at Kaneko and Sasaki who shrugged, equally as confused as you.

"What the fu-"

"Language." Ishimizu said, glancing at you pout before Okada spoke up a couple seats down.

"Don't mind bunny! You can say it." She hummed, smiling brightly as she sucked on the juice box in her hand, ignoring Ishimizu's glare as Mori deadpanned at her.

You nodded, not commenting on the fact that she had used your nickname yet again when the times before were useless.

Tooru had stopped by early morning to check up on you, calling you Bunny like always, but doing so in front of Mori and Okada, the two seniors you never wanted to learn your nickname.

Especially since they'd begun to let the nickname slip at random moments, more and more people picking up on it as you could only cower in embarrassment.

"... what does yeehaw mean?"

Kaneko shrugged, putting down her phone as she sucked on the pack of applesauce in her hand. "My translator isn't picking up on it."

"It must be slang." Sasaki hummed, both of you turning to look at her in curiosity as she elaborated. "Since the translator doesn't work and I don't remember having learnt anything like that before."

You groaned, slumping back on your seat as you cursed the Instagram comment for making you think so hard. "I don't get why we need to know English... I'm Japanese! I don't need no English." You clicked your tongue, Sasaki and Kaneko snickering as your seniors looked at you in curiosity.

"What if you get interviewed in the future but they only speak English?"

"Then I'll walk away. Duh." You hummed. "I speak Español and Japanese, anything else, talk to my translator." You nodded, cracking an eye open to glance up at the third years' snickering at you. You stuck your tongue out at them, the first years looking at you with small smiles as Kaneko puffed out a laugh.

"Who's your translator?"

"Tomiko-chan. Of course." You hummed, wincing when Sasaki flicked your forehead, the other girls laughing in delight as you rubbed the stinging away.

"You know, knowing three languages can come in handy, Oikawa-san." Aoki hummed, all of you glancing back at her as she smiled softly.

"You're only saying that because you teach English, Sensei." You hummed, Kojima snickering as Aoki gave him a cold side eye, promptly shutting him up.

"Well that's true, but who knows, what if you visit those western countries one day? You'll save yourself the hassle of not knowing the language."

You hummed, slowly nodding before shrugging. "The only western country I'd go to apart from Argentina would be America to visit my friend... if he gets accepted to the college he wants to go to, but if he does, he can be my translator. If not, I heard a lot of people over there speak Spanish too. Communication is never a problem, Sensei!" You hummed, smiling brightly as Aoki sighed, shaking her head as she smiled at you fondly.

Kojima cleared his throat, leaning forward as he rest his arms on his knees, looking down at all of you from his spot on the stands. "Finish up your food, you have to let it sit before we start warming up for the next game."

You all hummed, quickly finishing your drinks and snacks before Okada snapped her fingers.

"Winner takes the trash." She grinned, putting up a fist as everyone begrudgingly joined.
