19 Continued

Just as Kagami thought Akihiko was going to do a crossover, he was fooled as Akihiko did a behind the back dribble. Just as Kagami was about to react in time, Akihiko suddenly did another behind the back dribble. This was one of Kyrie's moves as Kagami fell down to the ground; the infamous Double Behind the Back Crossover.

Akihiko then pulled up for an easy bucket.

*Swoosh*

the ball went in as Kagami was frustrated at what was happening.

"I swear....I'll beat you!!" Kagami stood up and furiously declared to Akihiko

Akihiko gave a wry smile as Akihiko once again got the ball. By this time, Himuro was surprised at Kagami being beaten this badly. Alexandra kept a poker face because she had already predicted the results long ago.

While dribbling the ball, Akihiko had already wanted to end this as he then said

"Would you like to see the gap between us?"

Kagami was confused but in the next moment, Akihiko had already gone to the left side with a vicious crossover, Kagami chased after as the two met on the rim. Akihiko jumped as Kagami also jumped to go for the block. Kagami was expecting a regular lay-up but what Akihiko did surprised him more.

Himuro who was watching suddenly exclaimed

"Wait a minute!"

Just as he said that, Akihiko had dunked right in Kagami's face as Alexandra then said

"Alright, that's enough."

Kagami right now was speechless at what had happened.

"He dunked?!"

He exclaimed as he couldn't even progress at what had happened. He looked at Akihiko's face and saw that he had his usual cold look.

Alexandra smacked Kagami's head

"Yes, yes. Tatsuya, you're up."

Kagami left the court reluctantly as Himuro replaced him. To tell the truth, Akihiko was more interested in Himuro rather than Kagami. Why? If Akihiko were to describe Himuro's play style, it was basically the polar opposite of Aomine's play style.

Himuro was loyal to the basics and had an elegant orthodox play style. Not only that, he was dubbed the best an ordinary man can be.

Himuro got the ball as he got into a triple threat position. He was looking right at Akihiko as he analyzed the many possibilities that would happen. He did a pump-fake but Akihiko didn't even flinch as Akihiko just stole the ball after he did the fake. The ball was in Akihiko's hands as he planned to end this very early.

Akihiko first did a jab step with his pivot foot. He then retreated his pivot foot as he pulled up from the 3 point line

In a 1v1 game, 3 pointers are converted into 2 point which means Akihiko had made 2 points from that shot. As Akihiko got the ball once again, Himuro was panicking internally at what Akihiko is going to do next.

'A crossover? a behind the back? or will he do a spin move' Himuro thought as he waited for Akihiko's next move.

But what Akihiko did next was what Himuro didn't thought of. Akihiko had just jumped and shot the ball from the 3 point line.

*Swooosh*

The ball went in as Akihiko had once again, exceeded Himuro's expectations.

....

After multiple 2 pointers from Akihiko, the game had already ended as Himuro slumped to the ground in defeat. Akihiko looked at his phone and saw that it was already late in the afternoon.

Akihiko then asked Alexandra

"Are we done for today"

She nodded as she greeted her two students goodbye. But as the two was about to leave, Kagami suddenly said

"Let's play again next time!"

Akihiko gave a warm smile as the two finally left.

Alihiko and Alexandra once again got into the car as the two drove off.

While in the car, Alexandra talked about her two students to which Akihiko just listened. Let's be real here, any woman likes a good listener.

Amidst their conversation, Alexandra had an idea and said

"Hey, how about I treat you for coming with me?"

Akihiko then replied

"Sure."

The duo stopped at a café because Alexandra thought this was Akihiko's type of place.

The place was a local café because Alexandra also wanted something new as the two entered.

The duo sat on their respective chairs as Alexandra asked what Akihiko wanted.

Akihiko then replied in a serious tone.

"You..... I want you"

Akihiko then coughed and faced to the other side while he continued as he didn't even wait for Alexandra's reaction

"I'll have whatever the barista recommends"

Under his now poker face he had this one thought

'Why did I say that'

If you're in a restaurant that you're completely unfamiliar with, always order what the workers there recommend. It's basically the safest option possible rather having the chance to order the worst thing on the menu.

Alexandra did the same and they finally ordered.

....

After the two enjoyed their time at the café, it was already night time as Alexandra said

"I'll bring you back to your house"

Akihiko nodded as he told Alexandra where his house was. The two just talked and talked. In this process, Alexandra had told Akihiko to just call her "Alex" or "Coach Alex" from now on.

Alexandra was then greeted by a huge building and she asked Akihiko

"Where do you live here?"

Akihiko pointed at the top as she muttered

"Damn rich heir"

Akihiko exited the car as Alexandra suddenly said

"This is for accompanying me today".....
