"Sayuri! You were amazing in the match today!" Taiyou exclaimed happily, not believing himself.
"Well... I..." Sayuri trailed but was at a loss for word. "But I didn't do anything."
"What are you saying? Your pass was the reason that the captain scored the goal," Taiyou exclaimed with a wink. "And besides... even if you lost, didn't you have fun?"
Sayuri nodded happily, "Of course I did! Soccer sure is fun!"
Taiyou chuckled then said, "When you passed the ball didn't you notice an aura around the ball?"
Sayuri put a finger on her chin to remember what Taiyou just said...
"CAPTAIN!!!"
"Yeah! I remembered! But what was that about?"
Taiyou answered, "I'm sure you'll figure it out. After all, you are strong and smart."
Sayuri chuckled at this, "You've never changed, Taiyou."
Taiyou said, "I'm sure that Coach Kudou would be proud of you. Don't let what happened a while ago bring you down."
Sayuri nodded at him before they waved goodbyes and Sayuri exited Taiyou's room.
At the hallway, Sayuri started talking to Agnia.
"You did well Sayuri."
"Thanks, Agnia."
"No problem. Now why don't you check on Yuuichi?"
"Tsurugi's brother? Why?"
"Just go to him."
"Okay. Okay."
Sayuri headed to the other hospital and reached his room before knocking on the door.
'Hopefully Tsurugi is not inside...'
"Come in."
Sayuri opened the door revealing Yuuichi reading a magazine in his bed. And to her relief, Tsurugi is not here.
"Excuse me... it's me again," Sayuri trailed shyly.
"You're Takaki, right? Please come in."
"Yeah!" Sayuri answered nervously closing the door and sat on the chair beside him.
"You did pretty good at the match Takaki."
"Thanks... But--"
Yuuichi interrupted her, saying, "I know. Kyousuke told me everything about you; you played soccer before and you played pretty well."
"Thank you and please call me Sayuri."
Yuuichi nods with a smile but he noticed her looking anxious, "Did Kyousuke do something to you?"
"Um..."
"He wasn't always like this..." Yuuichi sighed. "Sayuri... please promise me that you'll open his heart again. Deep down, Kyousuke is a very kind person."
For a moment, Sayuri hesitated but then she nodded, "I promise."

The next day...
Sayuri casually walked along the sidewalk as several students walked around her. Right now, she is in deep thought about what Kudou said to her yesterday.
'Someone I knew in the past... what does Coach Kudou mean about that?'
She then entered Raimon Junior High when she noticed someone in front of the old clubhouse.
