[High School, Second Year]

"The girl's basketball team is playing in the finals. Are you going?"

Your eyes briefly flit over to the head manager of the team, Yuuka, a tall, curvy girl with corkscrew locks that frame her face; her default expression is always a serious one, and it reminds you of your best friend from middle school. Nothing went past her, not your antics nor those of your team members.

You pause what you were doing--sorting through the roster for the upcoming game-- and give her your full attention. "Oh, I can go."

"Good... You'll be okay, right? I know that the boys are having their own tournament in the same building."

You gasp and fervently shake your head. "I'll be fine! I'm not that scared of them anymore."

After your middle school graduation, your parents had you shipped off to an all-girls academy. With Nijimura gone in America and having discovered the trauma your experienced, he and your parents no longer felt comfortable having you in an environment with the opposite gender. You didn't have much say in the matter and accepted their decision without a word.

Fortunately, the girls in this academy didn't know your history. They only saw you as a shy, pretty girl with no social skills around boys. It was endearing to some but to others they saw it as a ploy to attract boys. Some girls tried to frazzle you, but you aligned yourself with the right crowd: the girl's basketball team.

Respected and with a can-do attitude, they were the sweethearts of the school. If anyone crossed them, they crossed the entirety of the school--faculty and students alike. You were in good company, surrounding yourself with people who respected your fear of boys.

The head manager was especially aware and empathetic to it, accommodating your fear to the best of her ability. However, she currently needed the extra set of hands. You knew and were more than willing to help.

"I can talk to them, and I'll be around you guys mostly. It's fine really," you continue when she gives you a doubtful look. "I'll be there on Saturday."

"If you say so," she finally relents with a sigh. "I'll text you the details later today."

You nod your head as you watch her leave the club room. "Winter Cup, huh... O-Oh gotta clean!"

Nothing could go wrong tomorrow.
