Chapter 24

(On Wednesday, Yuiichi was walking to go to cafeteria) Yuiichi, what are you going to do for vacation? asks Sakura. I am not sure but I will go to hometown some time, says Yuiichi. So you are free for whole month of November? Sakura asked. Yeah, I am, replies Yuiichi. Okay so we are planning to go to beach after the exams, will you come with us? asks Sakura. Sure, why not, replies Yuiichi. Great I will tell everyone. It was a hard situation for Yuiichi. He already lied to them by saying that he is not free on last sunday. He know he might lose all of his friends, if he started to avoid everyone.

(After 15 minutes) Yuiichi, I heard you are coming with us, says Max. Ohh Max, what are you doing here? Didn't you bring the tiffin? asks Yuiichi. My mother wasn't feeling good, so I told her to sleep, replies Max. When are we planning to go to beach? asks Yuiichi. Maybe the second month of November, replies Max. Why is there any problem? Max added. No, I will be gone for first week of December, that's why I am asking, replies Yuiichi. Our school starts again on the 6th of December anyway, so I don't think we will go to beach that late, replies Max. Yo, Yuiichi what are you doing? asks Misaki. Misaki, what do you want? asks Yuiichi. Kirishima was with Misaki as well. Nothing, I saw you so I came to say high, replies Misaki. Wow, aren't you ashamed you are talking with a guy who beat you ass not long ago, replies Yuiichi. Yuiichi said that because he didn't want anyone to think that they never had a fight. Haha you are a funny guy, says Misaki.

Misaki take it in a funny way but Kirishima didn't like the attitude of Yuiichi. You first year, don't you dare to mock Misaki, says Kirishima. Ohh you really have some friends Misaki. With that shitty personality of your's I thought you would never have anyone to call as a friend, replies Yuiichi. Oye, he is really going for a fight, says one of the student. I think it will be interesting to see, says another. Yuiichi calm down, says Max. Oye first year, says Kirishima. Why don't you respect us? We are senior to you, Kirishima added. Should I really respect you just because you born a year before me? asks Yuiichi. Don't make me laugh. The only way to earn my respect is by showing how strong you are, Yuiichi adds. You really have a bad personality, says Kirishima. Do you really think you are stronger than me? asks Kirishima. I think? I know for a fact that I am stronger than you, replies Yuiichi. Why don't we find that today then? asks Kirishima. Meet me to this address today at 7.30, he added. They walked away.

Yuiichi why do you always gets into trouble, says Max. Max I didn't do anything, says Yuiichi. Yeah, yeah so what are we doing? asks Max. What do you mean by that? asks Yuiichi. Are we going to not? Ofcourse but why are you coming? asks Max. Why shouldn't I? What if they attacked you in group, says Max. I don't think he will, replies Yuiichi. It doesn't matter, says Max. Okay you can come but don't you dare to tell Yotaro and others, says Yuiichi. Okay, replies Max.

(At evening, 7.15) You really came, says Kirishima. I thought there would be a ton of student but that's not the case, says Yuiichi. Why is he here? says Yuiichi (Pointing towards Misaki) Don't worry I won't come between you two, says Misaki. Misaki-san should we fight against each other? asks Max. Why should I fight with you? asks Misaki. Before he could say anything Max tried to kick but Misaki blocks his kick with left hand. These first year man, says Misaki. Yotaro takes a few steps back. Max, don't fight he is strong, says Yuiichi. Yuiichi, you must be thinking I am weak because you have never seen me fight but believe me, I am strong says Max. He started running towards Misaki. Wait wait wait, let's go somewhere else, says Misaki. Max I already told you, he is strong, says Yuiichi. Don't worry, Yuiichi, says Max.

Are you sure you want to let Max fight? asks Kirishima. What can I do? I already warn him, says Yuiichi. Do you think he can beat Misaki? asks Kirishima. Of course not, says Yuiichi. You are a horrible friend, aren't you? says Kirishima. I know Misaki will win but I know something more important than that, which is Max will learn a lot from this defeat. He is not someone who will cry because he lost to a second year, says Yuiichi. So should we fight? asks Kirishima. Kirishima why did you pick this storage? asks Yuiichi. My dad is the owner of this every storages of this area. I don't want any teacher to see us, that's why I picked this place, replies Kirishima. And you shit head, it's Kirishima-san for you. Why don't you show me why should I respect you, says Yuiichi. Okay here I come says Kirishima. He started running towards Yuiichi. Kirishima wasn't that big but one of his biggest attributes was his speed. He had a great height and he had a great speed as well. He was very tricky to deal. Yuiichi also understand that right after exchanging some blows.

Kirishima was continuosly attacking. He had a great kick and his punches were strong as well. Yuiichi was struggling to fight back and he was only defending himself. Kirishima hits a kick right on left side of stomach. It was a strong hit but Yuiichi didn't show any weakness. Before Yuiichi could do anything Kirishima punches him on the right side of his face. Yuiichi back downs a little. No one moved for 2 minutes. It was Yuiichi who moved forword and tried to kick him but Kirishima doges easily and he connects his punch on the right side of the stomach. Yuiichi fumbled. Kirishima grabs his neck and tries to hit knees on his face but Yuiichi blocks his knee but Kirishima responds by hitting elbow on the back of Yuiichi. Yuiichi gets a few steps back but before he could grab a breath, Kirishima tried punch Yuiichi on his face, Yuiichi blocked it. Yuiichi tried to respond him with his right kick but Kirishima blocked with his left hand. Kirishima punches Yuiichi right on stomach and hits him on a face. For the first time starting high school, Yuiichi had bleed by mere hands of someone. Yuiichi still had to land a blow on Kirishima.
