secret gem • haikyuu !!

6 ; New Friends

Tetsurō's POV

"C'mon Kenma, let's go in." I said, opening the door, taking the first step in. I close the door slightly, in order to cover Mai. I look around the whole of the gym, taking in what everyone was doing. But with the creak of the door opening, everyone stopped and turned to look at me and Kenma.

"Kuroo! Kenma!" the whole team exclaimed

"Hey guys," I replied, simultaneously waving with Kenma, "continue doing drills, I'll be there in a bit."

"Yes sir!" They all responded. Kenma breaking away and joining the team to do drills.

I jog over to coach Nekomata and take a small respectful bow, "Hello coach!" I said

"Ahh, Kuroo, what seems to be the problem?" He said, pulling a little smile

"Well, I have my sister with me, she's at the door right now, and I hope she could watch us play." I proclaimed

"Of course, invite her in," He exclaimed, "If she's anything like you when it comes to volleyball, we'll let her be captain instead of you." His claim jabbed towards me, I look at him slightly sheepish but a little offended.

"I'm joking Kuroo, I would love to meet your sister." He said, grinning

"Thank you coach!" I replied, taking another little bow and running towards the door. I opened the door slightly and poked my head out. I look to see Mai in-thought, I could see her snap out of it and to look at my appearance. "Mai, get ready."

"Okay!" She said quietly, pulling two thumbs up. I smile in response and turn around, closing the door slightly. I walk away carefully and I stood there watching the team practice.

"Everyone!" I shout, in which everyone turned and stared at me. Lev, who was in the middle of a spike, paused which instead caused the ball to drop onto his head, "Gather around."

Without hesitation, everyone huddled around me. Their faces looked slightly worried and anxious about what I'm going to say. I did shout suddenly and I had kind of an angry tone. I look over to Kenma, who seemed bored or 'out-of-it', but in fact, he's quite ecstatic. I should know, he's one of my greatest friends.

"Sorry to interrupt so suddenly. But before you continue practice, I'd like you to meet someone." I announced. I slowly backed toward the door and I opened it to reveal my sister, "My little sister, Kuroo Mai."

She nervously walked in, examining the area and the team. Everyone here was significantly taller than her. Especially Lev— Gosh, he is basically two and a half of her. I guess it's even funnier to know that Mai is a year older than Lev. I mentally chuckle at the height difference, but on the outside I'm pulling a slight smirk. I scan around to see Yaku, at least he has someone shorter than him.

"Hello! It's nice to meet you!" She said, semi-confident, taking a full 45 degree bow towards them. I look over at my team and dang, their expressions are priceless! Yamamoto looks like he's about to cry though— As she came back to a neutral position, the team responded with another bow whilst Kenma made his way towards her. 

"Welcome!" They all responded. Their chorus of voices surprised me, echoing along the empty room.

"KUROO! YOU NEVER TOLD ME YOU HAD A SISTER!" Yamamoto exclaimed, dropping to the floor. Both of his hands clenching his shirt, as if it was his heart. He's at it again, his googly eyes.

"You never asked." I said, shrugging. I look over to see Mai giggling to herself. "That's Yamamoto for ya."

"I see, that's actually quite adorable~" She fluttered, slowly making her way to Yamamoto, smiling brightly, "It's nice to meet you!"
