Chapter 132: With Yuya-kun's support, I won't lose!
“Eh, Kaede. I have a suggestion… if you don’t mind?”
It was just before the game started. Ai-chan suddenly asked me. Her expression was as serious as a samurai on the battlefield, and her voice had a sharpness to it.
“What’s going on? Change of plans, perhaps?”
“I’m sorry to be so abrupt, but I’m going full throttle right from the start, and that may put a strain on Kaede. I’m sorry. I’ll apologize first.”
Unlike men’s soccer, basketball games were played on a full court. But instead, until the semi-finals, the games were only 15 minutes long and there was no first half and second half. Only the final would be played for 30 minutes. Even though there was a half time, it was essential to conserve energy for tomorrow’s match.
According to Ai-chan, basketball was a point-scoring game. The one who scored the most points wins. That was why we talked about not taking any high risk attacks.
“… okay. I don’t know how far I can go against the head of the basketball team, but I’ll do my best.”
“Sorry, Kaede. I just couldn’t lose this game.”
The reason for this was probably the same as mine. Ai-chan was also empowered by Yuya-kun’s cheers. I wonder if Akiho-chan would describe it as warrior mode? This was the reason why Ai-chan was burning with a fighting spirit.
But I couldn’t let Ai-chan always get the coolest part! I also want Yuya-kun to praise me after the match! Ara—
“I’m also going full power from the beginning. I won’t let Ai-chan steal all my thunder.”
“Fufu, that’s true, too. Then let’s both do our best, shall we?”
Of course! After winning this match, Yuya-kun would tell me, “You did a good job, Kaede. That was amazing!” And then he’d give me a hug and nudge my head! And if you want to… Geez.
“Aah… Kaede. The game is about to start, so let’s get ready, okay?”
“Ai, I’m quite serious, you know? If I were to use an analogy, I’d say that I’m in the same state of mind as the Emperor in his final battle with his own brother, the Second Prince.”
“… Yeah, I see. I don’t know about it, but it does sound exquisite.”
Oh, no!? You say you didn’t know about this masterpiece!? Yuya-kun loves it too, and we’ve watched it together many times right from the compilation to the movie version. The scene where he was resurrected makes my heart beat faster no matter how many times I watch it.
“No, I know your reference and I like it too? But I don’t think that’s the right analogy? You know, it would be easier to understand if you were talking about the mood of Sosuke Sagara, who was challenging Belial piloting an Arbalest?”
Ai, it was rather difficult to understand that one. I mean, wasn’t that battle the one where the main character, Sagara-kun, loses. I think it should be an indication of a bad omen!
“No matter how hopeless the situation is, you never give up. That’s how much I feel. Kaede has a wide range of skills, doesn’t she? Unexpectedly for the other team.”
“Fufu. That’s it. I’ve been trained in many things by Yuya-kun, you know.”
We watch anime together at dinner or when Yuya-kun was off from his club activities. That was why he didn’t even let me sleep at night. If I say it like that, Yuya-kun might get angry with me, though.
“You guys are really lovey-dovey, Meotoppuru. I envy you.”
Ai-chan shrugged her shoulders as she let out a big breath. Please don’t give me that dumb look!
“Haha. Well, a little late for that. Now, let’s switch it up and get ready for the game.”
Uuh, I feel like Ai-chan made fun of me for some reason, but I couldn’t ask her about it because the game was about to start. If you ask me, I feel that it seemed to be caught by Yuya-kun as well.
“Aah, Kaede. It’s show time from here. Let’s show them something good, shall we?”
“Yes, sir. It’s our showtime from here!”
I clench my fists together with Ai-chan. Yuya-kun, please watch me! With your support, I’ll never lose to anyone!
