Hai again! It has been a while since i write. I am so sorry for the delay to anyone reading this. But life has been quite a challenge to me lately and thankfully i have recovered. Slowly but surely i will try to keep writing this story again. Enjoy!

Lucas POV:

Hai! My name's Lucas Reinhardt. And yes as you can tell I am Gustavo little brother. I live with my grandma, taking care of the house and my grandma at the same time. It's hard at times but thankfully i managed somehow. I am like my brother which is a folf. Some people says I'm a much more refined version of my brother but I don't really know since I barely talk to my brother now ever since he moved out

Fernando                    : "Hey Lucas! You ready?" Slightly shouting
Lucas                            : "Huh?? Oh right. Yes senpai I'm ready"

To be honest, I'm not ready. Why you ask? Because Fernando-senpai have one of the meanest Fastball serve that I ever experienced. And i just started playing tennis about a year ago, like cmon!

Fernando                    : "Alright here i come. Love love first serve!"

As Fernando-senpai says that, he hits the ball and the sound..... It doesn't sounds like it can be made by a tennis racket....
I try to hit the ball back to senpai, yet i failed miserably. So i just dodged the ball instead, I don't want to get hit by that ball. It could bruise me!

Lucas                          : "SENPAII! PLEASE CALM DOWN WITH THE SERVE!"
Fernando                  : "Wha- I'm not even using my full force though"
Lucas                          : "EXCUSE ME??!"

Lucas, calm down. You're not usually like this, this is just a test for you like usual

Aiko                            : "Hey now Mister Vice Captain of the Tennis Club, I know when you are doing your full power in serving. Tone it down a bit, i know you want to play full power with the serve but i doubt anyone can return that serve"
Lucas                        : "Aiko-senpai, it's okay I need to get accustomed by the power of serves anyways, that way I can learn"
Fernando                : "See? He's fine with it so it's a fair point is it not?
Aiko                           : Sigh "Alright fine if you say so lucas, but just so you know if this gets out of hand I'll make him stop doing those serves too much"
Lucas                        : "Thanks senpai for worrying but I'll be fine"
Aiko                           : Shrughs "Alright if you say so Lucas, but don't say I didn't warn you"

Ahahaha, yep I'm screwed. Why did I say that, now Fernando-senpai will most likely do those serve all the time. I guess the only way to counter it is basically trying to analyse how senpai plays


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~1 Tennis match later~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Aiko                        : "Game! 6-1 set and match to Fernando!"

I swear Fernando-senpai sure is good at this, I can't even keep up with him most of the times. I managed to only got 1 set out of that game, and it's because he slipped and failed to get to the ball in time

As I'm still trying to catch my breath, laying down on the floor near the net. I can see a shadow right above me covering my face

Fernando            : "Hey you good Lucas? I didn't get you that hard did I?" Tilts his head
Lucas                    : Pant pant "Y-you did good senpai. I-i guess i'm just out of shape. Oh man, it's been a while since i'm like this. Thanks senpai!"
Fernando            : "Wha- Y-you're welcome Lucas" Looks away trying to act cool

Ohoo?~ I might know how to deal with senpai then. Just praise him a bit then he'll be blushing in no time, Now what is my big bro is doing? As far as i remember, which was before i got destroyed by senpai in this match. He was talking with the transfer student

As I was lying on the floor, another shadow looms over me

Aiko                     : "Hey Lucas, you okay? This dunderhead didn't go too hard against you did he?"
Lucas                  : Sigh "I mean as you can see from the score it's 6 - 1. He crushed me, hard"
Fernando          : "Oh come on you said you're just out of shape"
Lucas                  : "Oh I wasn't lying about that, doesn't mean you didn't crushed me"
Fernando          : "Guhh..... Alright sorry, it's been a while since I play okay?"
Aiko                     : "Well no matter what had happened. Lucas, I have a new training regime for you, and you'll be playing against Fernando a lot mainly focusing on returning his serves"

Aiko senpai said that to me and then turned to Fernando-senpai

Aiko                     : "And you mister, i have some things i can help you improve but i have to tell the coach first"
Fernando          : "Wha- how come you can give it to lucas already-"

Aiko-senpai cuts off Fernando senpai

Aiko                     : "Because coach already told me on what he needs to work on, unlike you who skips training most of the time"
Fernando          : "Ughh... Finee I'll take training more seriously and will talk to coach about the training regime"
Aiko                     : "Good, you finally understand you dunderhead" Chuckles

I didn't want to see Fernando senpai suffer from this but this is entertaining to watch hehe.

I then look over to my brother and saw him blushing real hard next to Reis senpai. What happened? I don't know but i'll just leave them to it for now because i have to talk to Aiko senpai anyway

Lucas               : "Senpai, Can you tell me about the new training regime? I have a set goal I wanna reach this year"
Aiko                  : "Oh? And what is that goal if I may ask my adorable little kouhaii?~"
Lucas               : "Ughh, please don't do that senpai. You're like a sister to me. Feels weird when you try to act cute-"

As I say that, i can feel her puts me in a chokehold

Aiko                  : "What did you say you little punk? You have a deathwish?"

I know for some people this might looks like I'm in a whole lot of danger. But trust me, she's just messing around. If she really wanted to kill me, I would've died a long time ago

Lucas              : "Oh noo, my sweet sister. Don't kill me here~"

I say to her as i try to hold my laugh. Then i hear her started laughing and loosening her chokehold on me

Aiko                : "Bhahahaha, alright alright i'll stop. But for real, what's the goal you're trying to achieve here?"
Lucas             : "Well, at the end of the year i at least wanna try to beat Fernando Senpai or at least on par with him. Making him run the field since right now only you can do that senpai"
Aiko                : "Alright alright, going big this year it seems. Then I'll message the coach and tell him to help you with the training regime tomorrow alright

Yes! Hopefully with this training regime, I will have a chance to beat Fernando senpai in a match!

I look over to Fernando senpai and he seems to have such a serious face. I mean i would to since Aiko senpai is actually one of the top player here. Don't underestimate her. Because once you do, you will lose to her completely
