"Lev Sou-chan, and Tamahiko still need to improve on their receives. Especially their underhand. Shibayama is steadily improving, but in terms of experience he's not a solid libero yet," Kimi said, closing her notebook, concluding their conversation.

"Permission to have special receiving practice day for the first years," Kimi said, shoving her hands in her pockets. The weather was getting cold, as winter has started. She turned to Kuroo and Kenma, who were walking home with her.

"For when?"

"Tomorrow evening."

"Denied," Kuroo said.

"Why?" Kimi turned her head to Kuroo, and even Kenma looked surprised at his childhood friend denying her request.

"Tomorrow's your day off, so I'm not gonna let all the first years practice late without someone to supervise," he said.

"I said I was going to go for three hours, four hours max, I'll come back before they start," Kimi said.

"Didn't I say no to that too?"

"I said no to your no..." Kimi whispered.

"Then I'll say no to you saying no to my no," Kuroo topped.

"Please stop..." Kenma grunted. They were approaching the Kimi's house. It was surprising, but Kenma followed them all the way instead of going straight home.

Kuroo froze when they saw the light was on, uneasy. How does this keep happening again and again? He looked at Kimi who walked in front of him but stopped to stare at her house. He could remember how Kimi was frozen in fear when it happened the first time. She did stop, but she didn't look very scared. She looked...confused.

"Guys?" Kenma asked.

"Nishikawa, any idea of who might be in the house?" Kuroo asked Kimi.

"Uhh...Kou-nii told me his flight was tomorrow, maybe he came early?" Kimi said.

"Huh? He told me to come over today," Kenma said.

"He what?" Kimi and Kuroo said in unison.

"He told me he will arrive Friday night," Kimi defended.

"When did he tell you?"

"Last month," Kimi answered, not too sure with the information she holds anymore.

"He told me he's in Tokyo today, and he told me to come over...just now," Kenma showed his console chat with Koutarou. His message was sent 10 minutes ago.

Kimi sprinted - something that she doesn't do very often, to her house and opened the gate.

She continued and stormed into her front door and slammed the door open. She looked at the shoes in the hallway and turned to Kuroo and Kenma who followed her, smiling. Something that she also doesn't do very often.

"It's really him!" she said as she took off her shoes and hurriedly ran inside. Kuroo looked at the unbelievably big pair of shoes at the entrance. While he knew Kaito was quite a big highschooler, Kuroo knew he was far from having this size of shoes. They took off their shoes too, and went inside along with Kimi.

Kuroo and Kenma entered the kitchen following Kimi to find that there was a big man with a scary face, and the stovetop being on fire. He was probably 2 meters tall, unbelievably well built and muscular.

"Kimbo, extinguisher," the guy commanded.

"Aye," she said as she calmly took the extinguisher that was hung beside where her friends were standing. She walked back to the stove and sprayed it all over.
