You stopped playing tennis.
You didn't want to have anything to do with tennis.
but god decided that you should meet, befriend and fall in love with tennis again.

Yukimura Seiichi x O...
I pulled on your tie, sighing heavily as you entered the school compound. It was the first day of your new school life at Rikkaidai after a certain incident had occurred. I tugged your jacket closer to your body, holding your right wrist tightly.
Rikkaidai, as you researched, was a harsh school meant for the elite. I had to be the best in the nation- both academically or in your clubs. Every student in Rikkaidai was required to join the tennis club.
'Maybe it could help me get my mind off that incident.' I mused as you entered the stuff room.
"Hi, I'm Lei Ayumi. Can I get my schedule?" I asked the staff counter, as she was typing away. She glanced up at me, as she took my ID-card. She printed out my schedule and passed it to me.
"You are in class 2B, hope you have fun in Rikkaidai! By the way, take this club application form to fill up in case you have any club you wish to join." She beamed, as she informed the teacher-in-charge of 2B. I thanked her and walked away with the teacher. We stopped outside the classroom where she told me to wait for further instruction.
The noise inside the classroom died down, as the teacher entered the classroom. After informing the class that there is a new student, the room started erupting in chatters. She opened the door, and both of us stepped in.
"Lei Ayumi, nice to meet you. I transferred here from Tokyo." I introduced, as I did a slight bow. The class cheered. The teacher quickly arranged a seat for me at the back of the class, before continuing with more important matters.
As the form-teacher period soon ended, my seatmate pushed her chair to me, before beaming. "Hi! I'm Momiji Mao! Nice to meet you, where are you from? What club are you going to join? Oh, you can call me Mao! You don't mind if I call you Ayumi-chan right?" She gushed, as she held my hands.
"I'm from Tokyo. I think I'm going to join a sports club?" I asked, noticing the teacher that just entered the class, and directed my gaze at the teacher.
She moved back, grinning as she whispered, "I'll tell you later, Ayumi-chan!" as she took out her books. I smiled, nodding my head as I took out my books. The lesson soon ended, with me zoning out and enjoying the breeze and the activities that were conducted at the field.
"Ayumi-chan! You should submit a form at the sports committee, and take a look at what club you wish to join. Look for Mr Takahashi, he's the teacher-in-charge for the sport's committee AND you might even have a chance to meet THE Yukimura! He's the Year 3 representative for the sports committee. He's also the hottest guy in school, handsome, tall, friendly and soooooooo kind. He's even the captain of the tennis club, never dropped a match, and he achieved a feat of becoming the first person to become a captain in year 1! He is so good that people call him the child of God!" She rambled on.
I zoned out after hearing the teacher-in-charge name, and just nodded my head. "Here! Let me draw a picture of Yukimura! I would love to follow you but I have my violin club meeting..." She pouted, as she grabbed a paper, scribbling a drawing of 'Yukimura' before passing it to me.
"Thanks, Mao-san. I'll see you tomorrow," I replied, as she dashed off for her meeting, waving her hands in the sky. I smiled at her cheerfulness, before opening the sketch of 'Yukimura'.
"What the heck is this? Is this her definition of the hottest guy in school...?" I questioned myself as I stared at the drawing. It was peculiar. Interesting-looking, and definitely not my type of guy.
'She could be the next Picasso' I thought as I sighed, before making my way down to find Mr Takahashi, hands holding onto the drawing of 'Yukimura'. I made my way to the room, knocking before entering.
"Hi, I'm looking for Mr Takahashi...?" As my gaze met a blue-haired guy. He was good looking, with his blue hair and the jacket that hung loosely on his shoulders. This was what I would call good-looking, compared to the drawing I was given. He was pretty and graceful, like art, and no, not Picasso's art.
"The teachers just went out for a meeting, can I help you instead?" The guy asked as he offered a small smile.
"I need to submit a club application form...maybe I could look for a 'Yukimura'...?" I asked, recalling hard on what Mao-san told me.
"I'm Yukimura." The guy replied. I looked at him, before opening up the picture that Mao-san gave me. I studied the picture, before glancing at the guy.
"I'm looking for THE Yukimura. With hair like ramen noodles, circular eyes...always grinning?" I described, narrowing my eyes, rapidly glancing at the drawing and the guy standing in front of me.
"I am Yukimura, but..." He drifted off, as I decided that the person on the picture and the one in front of me were two different people.
"Yukimura...? The student in charge of the year 3's sports...?'' I questioned, as I lifted up the drawing to show him.

After looking at the picture, he paused for a long second before a short chuckle escaped his lips, he continued "I'm Yukimura Seiichi, the student representative of the year 3's sports committee. Nice to meet you", as a serene smile graced his lips. However, the tension in the room was thick and choking, unlike his laughter.
"The tennis captain? Child of something?" I continued, head tilting in confusion. How could this be the same person?! However, Mao-san description of the 'Yukimura' entered your head.
"That's me." He replied, still smiling serenely. My mouth opened and closed, as I drop the sketch in shock
"Oh shit. I think I'll come back later then...ahahaha...." I choked out in a burst of nervous laughter. I dashed out of the room, face red from embarrassment.
'If I stayed one more second, I would probably die out of embarrassment,' I thought, as I decided to take a detour to explore the school before returning to submit the form.
