Feelings

After 2 days since his visit to Yuki on the emergency room, Seiichi woke up and gently sat up to look if his roommate returned. The bed was still empty. But then, when he glanced at the window, he noticed a shoulder length brown haired girl sitting on a wheelchair, her eyes was closed like she was soaking in the warmth of sun.

He smiled when he realized it was Yuki because he noticed that his jacket was still on her shoulders.

Seiichi stood up silently and stood behind her. Slowly but gently, he leaned down and carefully enveloped her in his arms.

"Seiichi…" she mumbled weakly.

"Yokata. You are fine" he replied while burying his face on her hair.

She smiled weakly and laughed. "What are you talking about? Of course I am okay"

He released her and turned to face her. A lot changed in just 5 days. Her face is thinner that her cheekbones is so visible. She covered her face. "Ahhhh…. Don't look at me, I'm hideous"

He giggled and removed her hands from her face. "Don't say that. You are beautiful".

She pouted. "Liar" she mumbled yet a blush was seen on her cheeks.

"My teammates are going to visit me here again. Do you want some cakes?"

"Hai!"

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

"And then…. Senpai was like… data is complete. Prepare for the comeback" Kirihara narrated and imitated Renji, making others laugh.

"Nee, Miharu-chan, what cake do you want to try?" Marui asked while gesturing to the 3 cakes they bought.

"Hmm, I want the Tiramisu" she replied happily.

"Yosh. Jackal, cut a piece" The red hair guy handed the cake to Jackal "Eh? Why me?"

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

"Minna-san, sorry for the trouble in visiting me here" the Rikkai captain apologized while tucking in the already sleeping Yuki on his lap.

"Maa, it's okay. It was also fun for us because of her company as well" the megane guy replied. "Minna, can you guys wait for me outside. I need to talk to Yukimura alone" Sanada suddenly commented.

All of them nodded and left the room.

"So, tell me what the doctor said"

Seiichi looked down to Yuki, and pats her head. "The doctor said… I won't be able to play tennis anymore"

"Nani?!" he lowly exclaimed, trying not to wake her up.

"They want me to undergo a surgery, which only has a 50% chance of making it out alive…"

Sanada crossed his arms and closed his eyes, thinking very hard. "Then, what is your decision?"

"I don't know yet, I still have a week to decide." he answered with a painful smile.

The vice captain nodded. He then glanced to Yukimura, who is now looking at his roommate with very gentle eyes.

"Yukimura…." and he suddenly looked up to Sanada.

"That girl…. Do you…?"

Seiichi just smiled and looked back to her. "Maybe."
