Camellia [ Prince of tennis/Kuroko no Basket Crossover ]

"Onii-chan, what's kind of flower is that?"

"It's called a Camellia."

"It looks so pretty!"

"It is said to hold a meaning of flawless and excellence."

"Just like Onii-chan!"

"No, my dear sister. It reminds me of you."

"Why?"

"It's nothing Yumi. Say Yumi, why don't we go outside to play?"

"Hmm! Basketball!"

"Yumi, Remember this; I will and always will be there to protect you."

"Hai~! Still Onii-chan, Yumi doesn't understand what Onii-chan is saying!"

'That was a lie' She thought as she rested her forehead against the window. She was finally returning to Japan, the place where she was born and also the place where her family lives. She found herself reminiscing the past memories of her and her brother from when they were still kids.

She looked down at her phone to see the date. She felt like crying yet no tears escaped her eyes. It was today, the day her beloved mother died, the day her father didn't look at them with kindness, the day when everything changed.

"Sei-nii, did you know? Camellia means 'deep longing' too."
