I could see him walk through our gym, he looked so beat, and his hair was so dark. I hadn't seen Suga-san so happy before, he just kept smiling. He looked at him, like he never wanted to take his eyes off him. I just was really excited to have him on our team. It felt like yesterday, when I was walking home from school, and I saw a tv, and I couldn't believe my eyes. He looked so amazing, and he was like me. Short, and every since that day. I Imagined playing like him, like the tiny giant. It was hard, because I didn't know anything about volleyball. I was some kid, that had a passion. I just wanted to dream and it wasn't until I met him. That helped me find myself. His name was Kageyama Tobio. He wasn't the kind of person every one thought he was, he was complicated. He surprised you and no matter how much you wanted to hate him. He was trying to help, in ways you would never understand. I remember the first time, I met him. He looked at me walking from home, and he dropped a calendar. I picked it up for him, and I realized that the calendar had been ripped after February 9. There was no months attached, and why was he carrying one month? I had imagined, what this might be. I never understood him,"you dropped your calendar sir." I say softly, trying to get his attention. He kept walking, and he didn't even flinch. I caught up to him, out of breath. "Sir, you dropped thi-" he pushed me against this lamp pole.

I was so confused, and out of breath. What was he trying to do? He looked at me, and grabbed the calendar out of my hand. "What's your name?" He yells at me. I was speechless, and I couldn't answer. "Who are you?" He asks me again, and he sounded so angry. "I am Hinata Shoyo, I didn't mean to cause trouble. I-l" I was so scared trembling, and I start to cry. He looks at me, and he takes a deep breath. He looked like he was going to hit me but, he wiped my tear. I was so surprised. "I didn't mean to make you cry," he says softly. He completely changed and I didn't even realize it. He sits down on the bench next me, and he taps the bench to sit down. "What school do you go too?" He says calmly. I start to sit down next to him,"Karasuno HighSchool." I say excited. Why am I not scared of him? Why did I feel comfortable, he just pinned me against the wall? "I go there too, that's why you look familiar." He says, as he starts to put the calendar in his bag. "That's a unusual calendar, did it come like that?" I say interesting. He gets a look on his face, and he puts in his bag. "It didn't, I made it look like that. I don't think, I am coming back to school. So it was nice meeting you Hinata Shoyo." He says as he gets up, and I grab his hand. "Why? I need to know." I say concerned. He looked surprised. He starts to sit down,"I was going to end myself that day." He says whispering. At that moment I knew, I had to do something. I kiss him, I didn't know what came over me. I couldn't move and was this butterflies. I felt? "Hinata?" I snap out of my thoughts, and I see Kageyama there. "Oh sorry, I was day dreaming." I was so embarrassed. He looks at his journal and writes: I guess you are gonna have to find out what happens next.
