A True Sky

CHAPTER 10: A DAY BEFORE THE RAIN FALLS

Reborn was beyond pissed by now. Ietsuna just goes on with his life like yesterday scramble didn't just happen. Like his own twin didn't just got sent to the hospital after he was caught in the explosion. With closer observation, his dame-student seems actually livelier than usual.

"Baka-Ietsuna, we're going to visit the hospital today," the hitman said to the humming blond who were putting on his uniform.

"So? I have school you know. Don't expect me to absent just for some idiotic people getting himself into someone else fight"

The hitman clench his fist tempted to beat the shit out of the kid. He knows that he's training Ietsuna to be a Mafia Don and not to be a saint but saying such things about his own twin after he saved someone that could have die in his hands is just plain too much. Reborn decided to left before all his self-control slip and kill the brat instead. But if he didn't change his attitude anytime soon, Vongola be damn but they may or may not be having an heir anymore.

Ietsuna was excited to go to school. Finally, no Dame-Tsuna. He hope his condition is worse than it is so he'd stay longer or even lived in the hospital for all he cared. Even the annoying transfer student isn't in class too making his good mood even better.

Time passed and the blond continues to enjoy his day with zero probability of seeing his dame twin's face. Even the sight of him makes his blood boil so now that his wish had finally come true, he's not going to let anything to ruin it for him.

"You look so happy today Ie-san. Did something happen?" someone decided to asked the smiling blond. They'd never seen Ietsuna that enthusiastic about lesson but today had been a different case.

"Oh, do I? Nothing in particular change my mood, I'm simply happier. Is that wrong?"

"Of course it's not Ie-sama," the girls answered him instead.

His last subject was PE and he was even more noticed when they defeat the opposing team easily in a baseball match. Of course it was a bonus too that the baseball ace is in their team but he was still doing the best performance.

"Haha. You're really great Ie, that's why you're the top on my book," the carefree teen said when it was just the two of them on the locker room. Ietsuna wasn't really in the mood to play friendly with his popularity rival but thinking what could it do to his reputation if he ignored the other changed his mind.

"You were so great too Yamamoto. Every baseball fanatics in our school looks up at you," the blond replied smiling at the raven beside him.

"Hey, can I tell you a secret?" Yamamoto asked that make Ietsuna perk up. It could be his chance to finally eliminate Yamamoto on his way.

"Yeah. I'm a trustworthy person"

"I know. It's just that lately, my average have been dropping. Even my fielding is screwed up. I don't know what to do," the raven explained, the light air around him suddenly turns heavy.

"What was that? You're turning into a loser now too? If I were you, I'd train harder until I surpass my former best even if I break. But if you really can't do it anymore, just die to save your fans from getting disappointment on your failure," Ietsuna said before walking out of the room slamming the door in the process, leaving a stunned Yamamoto.

Tsuna groaned feeling his head throb like it's been drilled by jackhammer. He brings his hand up to rub his temple to at least soothe some pain away. He wasn't a masochist so why is he always in pain?

"Tsunayoshi-sama!" someone shouted beside him that had him shooting up from the bed in a second. He was prepared to jump away from whoever invades his personal bubble only to fall out of the bed instead.
