Hidden Behind Her Mask (Kuroko No Basket Fanfiction)(Tetsuya Kuroko X Oc/Reader)

Chapter 3: Observant Eyes

Tetsuya's Point Of View....

We won against Yosen and had an interesting game. I still noticed that her body is still quite tense and as the sun began to set, she looked at her watch. "Mommy, we have to leave now." Haru said as he tugged on Saku's sleeve. She nodded and began to head to the others. "Well, we need to leave for now. I have to get going, I will see you guys later." She said as she waved at us. Before she could go, I ran to her and gave her some cream, to relieve her pain and sore muscles. "Thanks, Kuroko-Senpai." She said with a smile. She took the kids and began to rush out of the School Gates. "Kuro-Chin, what are you doing?" Murasakibara asked me. "Nothing at all. I just gave her some cream to relieve her pain and sore muscles." I said to him. "Oh, I see." He said as he munched on his snacks. I was getting really curious as to how they knew each other. "Murasakibara, how do you know Saku?" I asked him in my usual blank tone with my pokerface. "Well, we knew each other from when I was in my last year of Teiko. She was working at that time and we got to know each other better. She would also buy me snacks as well when I forgot my money. She really is a nice person. But she never goes anywhere without her siblings. They are really attached to her and also she is rarely free." He said to me. I began to listen to what he had to say and started to think about it. 'I hope that we didn't cause her more stress and trouble by having her as our Manager. Maybe, we shouldn't have made her join.' I thought as I looked down to the ground. I knew that she was a hard worker but if she is rarely free, we are just taking up her own free time. "If you're thinking that you're troubling her, you're not. She will say the same thing. She is really selfless and knows that they all like Basketball. It is required to have a Manager, in order to continue so she didn't want you guys, to give up your dreams like she did." He told me. I nodded at him and began to walk back to the Gym. I still couldn't stop thinking about what he said. What he said is true but still I wish that I could do something to repay her especially for the sandwich that she gave me. I decided that I would stop by the Convenience Store and try and talk to her. It was decided as to what I would do. "Well, since Hana left, we should to. We should all get home and have a rest for tomorrow. You guys did great in the game. Congratulations on your win." Coach said to us. We all nodded in agreement with her. As we were walking, I never got to ask what Murasakibara what he meant by what he said. 'Why did she give up her dream? What was her dream? What was the reason she gave up? Didn't she want to fulfill her dream? Not only that but, why is she so good in Basketball? Was it involved in her dream?' I thought as I asked myself. I was so confused and curious to know. I decided to just shrug it off and possibly ask her when I see her again. But there was one thing that bugged me, it was the fact that she had sore muscles. She obviously shouldn't be using it but she still does anyways and tries to hide it from us. I don't understand why she would do that. I get what Murasakibara said about her and it is all true. She puts others before herself and she is with her Siblings. She also rarely has any free time because of her job as well. 'If she was so busy, why help us? She doesn't even really know us that well, but she helped us. She still puts herself last even for us, complete strangers basically. She isn't obligated to help us at all but yet, she did.' I thought as I was walking. I let out a small sigh as I continued on my way with Nigou. He was my pet dog and would go with me, everywhere. I put him down and he began to walk by my side. We went to my house and I began to unlock my door. It was just me, living here but the house was big enough for multiple people but not as big as Kagami's. His house, was big enough to fit everyone from multiple basketball teams. My house was just a bit smaller compared to his own but I never brought any of them, here. I didn't want them to make a mess of my house. "Maybe I should go out and eat as well." I said to myself. I decided to go and get out of my clothes. I just wore some pants and a black shirt. It was just some casual clothes. I also got my wallet and so I could buy myself some food. I don't really eat a lot so I just buy something enough for me. When I was done, I went out and locked my house. I was thinking about where to eat so I decided to go with Shiroi's Cafe, a cafe nearest to my house. I never went there but, I decided to go there now. When I went in, I was surprised at what I saw. "Welcome to Shiroi's Cafe, thank you for coming, Master." A woman said to me. I looked closer and saw Saku, in a maid uniform. I blushed a bit and tried to control it. "Kuroko-Senpai." She said to me as her eyes widened a bit.
