Blurry Sight (Kuroko no Basket Fan Fiction)

Cheater

Yay! The summer vacation is finally begun! You’re probably going to be tired of hearing an excuse for why I'm updating so slow, but again because I'm quite busy. My brother actually just graduated from high school, isn't that great!? :D Now it's my turn! In about 4 years.... Anyway, this is the 6th chapter, and I hope you like it :)

"I'm going now, everyone!"

Kazumi ran down the big hall eating the last piece of her breakfast. But as she came past the living room, she stopped. Her dad was fallen asleep on the couch. Probably after that hard work he had done the last night. Not to say he was going to be interviewed later on the day, so he had to prepare for whatever the journalist would say. She smiled and walked closer to him. He had a blanket over him, but his upper body hadn't. She was about to take it and put it over, but suddenly she stopped. It shook. Her hand shook. She pulled it slowly back.

"Daisuke-san?"

She looked to the side and saw the old maid standing with a straight back, and in a kimono. She looked questioning at her.

"Oh, Shiwase."

"Is there something the matter, Daisuke-san?"

"You know, it's quite weird when you all me that. Just call me Kazumi."

"I can't possibly do that" she replied polite.

"I guess, you can't..." she whispered and looked back at her sleeping father. "Say, Shiwase..."

"What is it?"

"Is it...a bad thing that I don't remember him at all? I mean...he could’ve might as well be a stranger to me, if it wasn't for the similar look and same name."

The old woman thought for an answer and said "you were only a little girl when it happened and you've been through a lot. And then there's your clumsiness."

"Yeah, I love to run wherever I go. And bang my head on either the floor or the wall wherever I go..." she laughed awkwardly. She then gave her watch a quick look. "Oh no! I'm going to be late! Shiwase."

"What is it, Daisuke-san?"

She ran out of the room, but before she was out of sight she quickly turned around and smiled.

"Please take care of father for me!"

And gone she was. Shiwase walked over to her master and putted the blanket over him.

"She became a fine lady these past years, you've been gone... She reminds me just of you..." She looked behind her and looked at the little picture on top of the fireplace. "...Yumiko."

The school just ended, and everyone was on their way to their clubs.

"We need to come up with a new strategy" Riko said. "Something our opponents will have a hard time with."

"Hm" Hyūga agreed.

She looked up at him, a bit confused.

"What'a the matter?" she asked. "Something bugging you?"

"Huh? Oh, I was thinking about Kazumi" he answered. "After seeing what happened yesterday... It's like she's two complete different persons. The first is clumsy and childish, and the second is the complete opposite."

Riko looked outside the window as they walked. It was quite silent, but that was fast going to an end. A person that seemed to look like Kazumi ran away with all her might. She stopped to take a short break, when she looked behind her and sprinted even faster than before.
