You as Hina
For other people, chasing someone who never once looked at you is the hardest thing to do, however, for me that's the thing I love doing the most. Although it's hard, seeing Miyuki Kazuya every day makes my heart happy. The way he works hard until late at night to support his team and reach Nationals is just simply amazing and me seeing all of this makes things even special.
"Hina, why are you spacing out? Miyuki captain had been calling you."
I gasped in surprise and turned my head toward Miyuki who was now glaring at me.
His expression says how displeased he is. Ah, I'm doomed... he'll get mad at me for sure.
"I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention-"
"This is an official team meeting. Get out if you can't pay attention. If this happens again, I'll be dragging you out of this place myself," Miyuki said sharply.
I felt pang on my chest when I heard those words, this is a daily occurrence so it's nothing new but whenever he talks to me that way, I couldn't help but feel upset. I crouched down as I look down on my feet.
"H-hey, you don't have to talk that way to her captain. Chill, okay?" Sawamura tapped my back murmuring it's fine and just understand that Miyuki is a little sensitive these days. Of course, I smiled and reassured him and said, I'm fine.
"Let's end the meeting now. Everything had been discussed!" Just like that, he turned away in a pit of anger. I didn't think twice and immediately followed him. I reached out to him when he suddenly hit my arm which was about to touch his shoulder.
I looked at him blankly.
"You are being a nuisance, Hina! I f*cking regret helping you back then. If I did not, I wouldn't have met you and you wouldn't have followed me all the way here! I'm so done with you clinging on me acting like a f*cking leech!"
Everyone around stopped and looked at us. I trembled in shame.
I've always wondered why was it so easy for him to treat me like this. Turned out it was because he felt like I am stalking him every time. I smiled bitterly. I can't cry now.
Not in front of him, not in front of the team members.
I clenched my fist and looked at him bravely.
"Ha! You're unbelievable. I can't believe those words are still not enough to make you understand how I hate you. Then, let me show you myself!"
As if everything I heard were not enough, he reached out to a girl passing by roughly and looked at me while smiling. My heart skipped a beat.
No way...
H-he won't do it...
He lowered his head, not leaving his eyes on me, and kissed the girl passionately. When I saw that scene, it felt like my world came crashing down. Even breathing became harder and the tears that I'd been holding from leaving my eyes poured nonstop. I cannot hear anything, I can't even see what's in front of me anymore. Whether he's still kissing her or he already left, I don't know anymore. I just stood there frozen.
At that second, I questioned myself.
Why is it so hard for him to love me?
What did I do wrong?
Why does he hate me?
But then, at the end of the day... the answers to those questions were not important
That's when I snapped out. My eyes began to see everything again and I could hear the commotion going around. In front of me was Kuramochi. He was shaking my shoulder and was telling me to calm down. However, I only looked at the man at his back.
It's my Miyuki Kazuya.
The man I've loved for 8 years. The man I've been chasing for 8 years.
The girl he once embraced was now gone and I could only see him looking at me with a stiff expression.
"Are you okay? You should really rest first. I'll accompany you to your dorm."
I retracted my gaze from Miyuki and smiled at Kuramochi. He really doesn't need to worry about me that much. It's not like my heart was taken from me or maybe it was
"I'm okay, I can walk just fine. Anyway, see you guys tomorrow!" I waved my hand as I started running back to my dorm. I don't want to stay there anymore and I am too ashamed to even remain standing there after everyone heard Miyuki's words.
I don't want to think anymore... Perhaps, I should rest first and think about what should I do in the future but one thing is for sure.
I'm giving up on my 8 years of love, on Miyuki Kazuya
***
The next day, I woke up a little later than usual so I didn't go to morning practice. Instead, I thought things through and headed to my classroom.
After all these years, I don't think I can leave being a manager. At first, I started it because of Miyuki but as time passed by, I came to love baseball and Seido team so I'm staying as a manager. I want to support them until I graduate. However, this time I will have to avoid Miyuki. I don't think I can face him after all that happened last night and I also want him to live without worrying if someone like me is clinging to him.
But there was one thing I forgot. He's my seatmate. I glanced at him uncomfortably. Coincidentally, he was also looking at me.
My heart throbbed in pain
I straightened my back and looked away from him. The sight of him reminds me of his words and actions last night.
After this class, I'll definitely ask my homeroom teacher to let me exchange my seat.
Fortunately, time passed by quickly without any problem.
Yes, except from Miyuki who kept staring at me the whole class
I don't know what his problem is but to move on, I can't keep on thinking what's on his mind so I just shrugged my shoulder and left my classroom to go to the afternoon practice for regulars.
Tomorrow is the first match for the nationals so the practice today is designed to prioritize the regulars who would be part of tomorrow's game.
When I reached the practice field, the 20 regulars were already there including him along with the coaches and managers.
The managers would help the team by preparing their food to supplement their body while practicing, picking up the baseball balls and listing down the number of pitches the pitcher throws.
"Will you be listing the number of pitches today?"
"Ah, can you do that for me instead? I think I'll be helping the managers to prepare some food for the team today," I said to Ella and glanced at Miyuki who seemed to be listening to our conversation.
Fortunately, Ella immediately understood my situation and agreed to replace me at my assigned job.
