Welcome to Aoba Johsai || Iwaizumi Hajime

Chapter 5

In a blink of an eye, the club has arrived. Haneul and Iwaizumi headed to the gym. Iwaizumi headed straight to the change room while Haneul approached the coaches. "W-What to do...?"

The coaches smiled at her. "Here, get your uniform first."

Haneul accepted it. "M...ine...?"

They nodded. "You might want to wash it first though."

When Haneul heard the word, wash, she nodded her head and placed it in her bag for now. Once she has done that, Iwaizumi came out and went straight towards her. He then wrapped his jacket just like he did in the morning. "Here, since you can't wear your uniform yet."

"T-Thank you..." Haneul said. "Hajime, k-kind..."

Iwaizumi looked away slightly before carrying the box of bottles that were beside her. "Let's go. I'll show you how to make drinks."

When Haneul just blinked at him with a confused look, Iwaizumi wrecked his brain to remember the Korean he learned. "Me... h-help... make...?"

Although he was unsure if he said it right, Haneul nodded as if she understood. "Thank you..."

Iwaizumi sighed in relief before turning to the coaches. "I'll just help her with the drinks since she doesn't know."

The coaches excused him before gathering the other members to start their training.

Iwaizumi demonstrated how to make the drinks. "You need to put this much amount of powder then fill the bottle with water until it's full. Then you just have to mix the powder and water together."

Since he was demonstrating, Haneul immediately understood what to do. 

"Okay...! E-Easy...!" Haneul smiled and began to try it on her own. 

Iwaizumi smiled at her before helping her with the rest of the drinks. Once they were done, Iwaizumi carried the box of bottles back to the gym, despite Haneul wanting to carry them. "My w-work...!"

"It's fine," Iwaizumi said before walking ahead of her.

"Hajime too... k-kind..." Haneul mumbled at him.

"I'm not kind," he said with a chuckle.

"Hajime b-bad...?" Haneul tilted her head. "No t-true..."

Iwaizumi smiled at her words before placing the box down on the bench. He ruffled her hair gently, not wanting to mess her hair. "Thanks."

Haneul just smiled.

"Iwa-chan! Stop enjoying your date with Lee-chan and warm up!" Oikawa whined loudly.

Iwaizumi's aura instantly changed as he glared at Oikawa in annoyance.

"Hick!" Oikawa flinched before hiding behind Hanamaki.

Hanamaki just laughed as he tried to run away from Oikawa. 

"Makki! Help me!" Oikawa cried out as he continued to follow Hanamaki for protection.

Haneul sat on the bench in amazement as she stared at their practice game. She already watched them the day before, but they didn't fail to make her amazed once again. She was especially amazed by Oikawa and Iwaizumi. Even if she didn't know anything about volleyball, she could tell just how amazing they were. Oikawa's sets and serves were amazing while Iwaizumi showed what it was to be an ace. 

She was brought of her daze when the whistle was blown as Iwaizumi has scored. She quickly flipped the scoreboard before turning back to the court, paying attention.
