" some few years ago, yukio sakamoto and i were really close friends. we played volleyball together, " takahashi started.
" wait but he was never in the school team, " you instinctively recalled.
" that's right. we used to play in a club. "
" ohhhh... why not just play for the school then? "
" not sure but he said he wouldn't mix well with the kids, " takahashi said.
you recalled how childish middle school was. bullying the ' nerdy ' was frequent, especially among sports men who got popular because of their sport. now you understood why sakamoto refused to join the volleyball school team.
" so we spent a lot of time outside school together in club but one day he suddenly left. " takahashi sounded sad. " he just left without saying a word. no text. no call. no goodbye. nothing. he just quit school and quit the club. "
" oh... " you frowned. you placed your arms around takahashi's neck to provide him some comfort which only caused him to snuggle closer to you.
" yeah. it was pretty shit. the best part was that the next time i met him, he won against me in the winter cup, " takahashi admitted, " i guess that's why i'm so determined to win him this time round. "
" then... your determination stems from...? "
" honestly i don't know. i don't know why i want to win him so badly, " takahashi sighed, " maybe it's revenge? or maybe i just want to prove to him that quitting on me was a mistake. validation? i don't know. "
takahashi looked up to you. his face was slightly red and his eyes were a little glassy. " i have never told this to anyone before. it is embarrassing for me to admit but perhaps i never felt like i was enough... getting left behind... kinda sucked you know? "
your face twisted into one of disagreement. you gently sandwich takahashi's face and squeezed it, making him do a duck face.
" takahashi ran, you are more than enough. i'm sorry I wasn't there for you then but i am here for you now. i will never leave you behind. "
takahashi looked at you in amusement. he had a stunned expression on until a single tear drop rolled down his eye, followed by a stream of tears making their way down his face.
" am i crying? " takahashi asked as he touched his damp face.
" silly, " you warmly smiled as you used the sleeves of your sweater to clean his tears away.
takahashi was about to say something when suddenly the sound of the door handle twisting open could be heard.
you both panicked. you pried yourself off takahashi as he let you go, quickly wiping his tears which never seemed to stop flowing.
" oh! sorry. i was on lunch break. " it was the friendly old nurse.
her hair was as white as snow and as fluffy as wool. she was always seen in her medical coat with a pair of thick circular golden framed glasses, which had a neck strap attached to it. she also wore a silver heart shaped pendant around her neck.
