I waited for Ryoma. Tezuka sempai said that I to get his paper personally so Tezuka ttend to gim properly.
I am only a bit scared for todays match. Ryoma is going to play with Kaido, Fuji, Eiji, and Inui. The first three players are alright, but if it's Inui, it's like Ryoma will be playing with himself. Inui is the data collector in Seigaku tennis team. Data tennis is what they call him. So, when I see Ryoma, I will greet him good luck.
Ad I worked on the desk, I heard my name on the corner of the table. I turned to look whonit was. To my surprise, I found Eyoma holding his paper.
"Ryoma kun" I said.
"Here, where will I go?" Ryoma handed me the paper.
"Here, this one. Good luck Ryoma" I said with a smile.
"Un" then he walked away. My eyes followed him, I fprgot that I was even working. Someone even had to say excuse me a lot of times to get my attention.
"Eh, sumimasen. Hai, douzo"
After the registration, we all went to the courts to watch the matches. So far, the tennis club non regular members can't beat Ryoma. He even defeated all the sempai that are trying out for the Seigaku Regular Tennis Team. As if Tezuka would let them. They don't have any particular tennis move or skill. Unlike the regulars who have skills and weird moves but awesome ones.
As expected when Ryoma was already going against Kaido, the girls were all cheering for him. I even saw at the other end of the the court, Tomo had a group of girls cheering and wearing wierd bands with Ryomas name on it.
"As expected from a Ryoma fan" I said with a sigh.
"Sakuno chan" I heard. I turned and saw Taka san with the others.
"Sempai, ohayou" I greeted them with a bow.
"Ne Sakuno chan, who are you cheering for?" Momo sempai asked.
"Both of them. They are good players so I want to cheer for both of them. But since Ryoma is my classmate, i'll cheer for him the most" I said to Momo sempai.
"The truth hurts" Momo sempai was pretending cry.
"Daijobu" Taka san patted Momos back.
"Anyway, let's watch the game" Oishi sempai said.
The first round was intence. Some sempai can't even beleive that Ryoma is just a freshmen going against a regular member and is a sempai. Ryoma was even able to copy Kaidos snake. The look on his face was a bit priceless because he couldn't beleive that Ryoma was able to do snake.
"Did he just do that?" Eiji asked.
"So he is a briliant and strong player. Impressive" Fuji sempai said with his arms crossed acros his chest and eyes open.
"I womder, where could Ryoma get all of these skills?" Momo asked.
"Eh" I rememberd Ryoma was able to mention thay his dad used to play tennis in this school.
"His dad, maybe he learned this from his dad. He said his dad used to play tennis here in this school amd is part of the team. I just forgot his name. It was I think Nanjiro Echizen?" I said thinking.
"Nnanjiro Echizen?" Oishi sempai said.
"Yeah, I think so" I said.
"He is also called Samurai. He was really good in tennis. He was famous across all japan after school" Oishi said.
"Samurai! So if Nanjiro Echizen and Ryoma Echizen, he is.. SAMURAU JR?!!! "What?! This is crazy! I never knew he had a son!" Eiji seemed to freak out.
"Now that you mention it, they do look a like" Momo said looking at Ryoma.
"Samurai and Samurai Jr. So this is what he is. A tennis Samurai just like his father. Cool" I laughed to the thought. If someone had him as a boyfriend, that'll be cool.
"Watcha gigling about?" Momo asked.
"Nothing" I smiled at him.
"Really? Because you seem to be havin fun with your thoughts" he said looking at me with along curious face.
"SEMPAI!! I am not thinking about that!" I said.
He just laughed. I hit his headwith my fist really hard and walked away. Sometimes those sempais are really crazy. I planned on going to my grandmas office and watch the match from there. When I got there, I saw buchou sitting beside the window with his arms crossed accros his chest.
"Buchou" I walked to him.
"What do you think about the newbee?" he asked.
"EH- Eto- it's really up to you buchou" I laughed awkwardly. It's rare for me and Tezuka to talk.
"Do you think he'll be able to make it to the regulars?" he asked.
"I think if he gets to the regulars, he is worth joining the team. All of you may have everything, but sometimes, everything still needs something. He'll be a good chance to win the tournaments with you guys. You just have to use your last strongest resource" I said.
"I guess you are going to be the next administrator for the tennis club after your graduate. Your grandma will not be here forever" he said looking at me.
"I hope i'll be a good one" I said.
"You will be. Just use your brain and don't be always childish like always" Tezuka said.
"You too. Please ease up a bit too on the team. You can't always be too, well, acting like a man. Not like a student much if you act that way" I told him.
"Thanks for that" he said as he stood up then walked out the door.
I sat on his chair and looked out the window. As I faced at where he was facing earlier, I saw Ryoma. All this time he was looking at Ryoma play tennis and making up his mind. Well, I'm sure this would be tough for him to decide. I imagined if Ryoma did enter the team, it would be more interesting.
