New Prince of Tennis: Love is Our Zest

Ep 13

Hello~! For those who are reading this, thanks for supporting this story. Anyway, I'll let my main character do the talking now. Enjoy the meal~!

[Hey there. I'm Tsuge Alivia. If you don't know already, I'm the 17-year-old daughter to the devil coach of U-17, Tsuge Ryuji.]

"Morning, Junpei-san, Daiki."

"Hey/Morning."

[Like these gentlemen, I've been hired by the coaches to be chefs at the bistro.]

"Ready for another day?"

"Yup. Let's get started."

FWAP—FWAP!

*Clinking/Clatter*

Sizzle~

Clank-Clank—Clunk!

"Hey Via, I need another order of the omelet special!"

"I've got two ready! The other one is for table #!"

"Thanks!"

[Then there's my triplet cousins, our choremen and co-chefs in training. My family and I are culinary students, so it's only natural that we'd take this temporary job.]

FWOOM~

"Wow..."

"—and so you need to make sure the flame is high in order for this dish to be thoroughly cooked."

"Yes, ma'am."

[Occasionally, my colleagues and I would take turns with our afternoon cooking classes on weekends. The members here have been very enthusiastic to learn.]

"It's my turn to take patrol."

"Be careful, Alivia."

"I will, Junpei-san."

Clack-Clack-Clack-Clack

[When I'm not in the kitchen, I would go out and take my other position as a warden, vice-versa with Junpei-san and Daiki. We usually scout the grounds, stop any foul play between the members, and making sure no intruders invade the premises.]

"Afternoon, Tsuge-sama."

"Good afternoon."

[Being the only girl on camp isn't so bad. Let's just say I'm a guard with bodyguards 24/7 if one member gets cheeky by trying to make a pass at me. The end result is not pretty. Still, this year is becoming a lot interesting every day. And one of those reasons...]

"I'm gonna take out another batch of sweets."

"Alright."

I exit the kitchen and set the desserts on the buffet table.

"Those look delicious!"

[—is that I'm being pursued by eight boys.]

"Hello, Marui-kun. I was wondering when you'd get here."

[Marui Bunta, a third-year from Rikkaidai with a major sweet-tooth and easy-going personality.]

"You'll always find me first in line for your sweets."

"Alivia-san!"

"Hi, Akaya-kun."

[Rikkaidai's second-year, Kirihara Akaya. He's rather clumsy and impatient at times but still a good person.]
