The Birth of A Volleyball Legend

2011. That was when earthquake and tsunami hit Japan, changing thousands of lives. And Kobayashi Yuki is just one of them. A month ago, he was just a normal boy, graduating from a small middle school in Fukushima and was excited to go to the high school. However, the disaster changed his life. He lost both parents, not because they died, but because they were still missing until now. He lost his home. He lost his friends. He lost his school. He lost everything. Having no choice, he moved to Tokyo, to a small, new orphanage to accommodate victims of the disaster who didn't have any home or wanted to change their lives in the biggest city in Japan. In his mind, all he wanted to do was enter a normal high school, do a part-time job, make some money to help the orphanage, and maybe if he were lucky enough he could be admitted into a good university with a scholarship. However, one challenge from the volleyball team and one half-Italian blonde boy turned everything upside down. Now, he was trapped inside the crazy team, being dragged into the mess. Inter-High. National Tournament. Volleyball. Those three words kept spinning around his life as he entered a crazy high school life. Can he strive in the place where he was unfamiliar with? Would he be a good volleyball player? And what does the future hold for him?

Visitor (II)

An awkward silence descended among all the people present as everyone stared speechlessly at the girl who had just rudely barged into the room. After a few seconds passed, it was Riku who finally broke the silence with his casual comment.

"Not wasting time to ask how he is and going straight to the point? Wow, a real dick move, Sugawara-senpai. A real dick move, indeed."

Yes, the girl was Arina Sugawara, the third-year princess student whom Yuki had just befriended in the last few weeks. Yuki was curious, though. Based on what Riku had just said, it seemed they were no strangers to each other. However, aside from the meeting with the volleyball club, he couldn't recall those two interacting openly like this.

'Maybe it's a popular student thing,' he thought.

"A D-D-Di-Di-!" Arina Sugawara stuttered, her face flushed from Riku's crude choice of words. Poor girl; she didn't even know how to repeat it properly—too pure to be tainted by Riku's crudeness.
