Hidden Plays

8: Until I met him

It was another day at practice at Hyotei, so when Satomi found Noriko running up to her with a panicked face she knew something was off.

"We have to leave to the hospital right now. Can you come with us? We were told to drop you off home, but an emergency came up, and we can't come by later." Nori said in a rush, her whole facial expression was panicked.

"Coach, there seems to be an emergency. I'll tell you about my findings on the school I went to yesterday another day." Satomi said softly biding all 215 tennis team members goodbye. They drove to Kanai General Hospital. They parked outside a hospital. Nori quickly helped Satomi out of the car despite Satomi's protests and Nori practically dragged Satomi into the hospital forgetting the latter was still on crutches. Hikari, Nori's mother, already was asking directions.

"Can we see Yukimura Seiichi? I'm his aunt." Hikari said showing her ID and everything. As soon as everything was confirmed they headed into a hospital room, on the bed lied a beautiful young man, not handsome, but beautiful. He had hard blue hair and blue violet eyes.

"Obasan, good to see you." Yukimura said.

"I heard about the news. Of course my stupid older sister would keep this a secret from me." Hikari said.

"I need to talk to the doctor real quickly, Satomi, Noriko, keep him company." Hikari said heading out of the room.

"Sei-chan, this is Satomi-chan, Satomi-chan this is Seiichi." Noriko said.

"Nice to meet you." Satomi said.

"Can you tell him your secret, please?" Noriko asked. Satomi looked hesitant.

"I trust him, and I promise he won't tell." Nori said. Satomi sighed and nodded.

"Very well." Satomi said.

"If I'm right that's a Hyotei uniform, specifically the jacket of the tennis team." Yukimura said. Nori nodded.

"MiMi-chan here has three different identities. First one is Beauchêne Satomi, supposedly is half french half japanese, and is the 2nd year vice president of Hyotei Academy's student council along with Hyotei Academy's boys tennis team manager. Her main identity she never uses in public, that would be Yoshida Satomi, daughter of Yoshida Katashi, famed tennis player, and actress Yoshida Katsumi, and sister of actor Yoshida Hideaki. Her last identity is 'Tomi', Japanese Queen of tennis, partner to Akimoto Noriko." Nori said. Yukimura was surprised.

"She seems so perfect doesn't she?" Nori asked. Yukimura nodded.

"I'm far from perfect." Satomi mumbled.

"You juggle the responsibilities of playing professional tennis, vice-president of Hyotei Academy student council, manage a tennis club of more than 200 members, and is the hidden daughter of two famous names." Nori said.

"Every human has their down sides, Nori-chan." Yukimura said.

"I know like Satomi's too prideful to even have people help her. Not to mention she's rude to strangers. She conceited and arrogant on the courts. She's very picky about everything. She has a major sweet tooth..." Nori started. Both of hem sweat-dropped. Wasn't Nori just saying how perfect Satomi was a second ago?

"Okay, that's enough." Tomi said calmly, but venom was laced in her voice.

"Oh and she's gets very-" Nori started.

"Enough." Tomi said. Her voice wasn't booming, but it was dangerously low.

"So why do you have the eyepatch?" Yukimura asked.

"I was born with Heterochromia Iridus." Tomi said taking her eyepatch off, but her bangs still covered her eyes.

"Huh?" Yukimura asked. Tomi pushed her bangs to a side to show her right eye. Yukimura's eyes widened when he saw it was silver, her other eye was a metal blue.
