"but who knows, he might change his mind." sugawara added.

sora squated in front of a convenience store. he sighed in defeat.

joining a professional team, huh? it will just make me lose control. sora thought. he downed his cold drink as he watch the orange sky.

"hajime..?" sora called a little bit startled to see the spiky haired ace squated beside him too.

"sup," iwaizumi replied shortly. "congrats on your win," he continues.

"thank you," sora mumbled.

"eh? nani? why do you look so sad?"

"is that apparent?"

"even that dumb shittykawa could tell that you are not happy, idiot." iwaizumi snickered.

"what could i say, i didn't get any pleasure from playing volleyball, it's stressful really,"

"of course, baka."

iwaizumi inhaled and exhaled quite roughly. he stood up, stretched his back and turned his gaze go the still squated down sorashi.

"then why you play volleyball?"

"because i watched my brother's match,"

"so do i, i watched argentine matches with oikawa and we didn't turn up like you. it's just you tried too hard and turned into a perfectionist idiot worse than shittykawa," iwaizumi harshly explained.

"i guess you are right." sora looked up to see iwaizumi. "but i still can't believe that you could be that wise, hajime."

"you are the worst, trashysora."

"hey! why are you calling me with tooru's nickname?!"

iwaizumi chuckled, he exhaled his breathe lightly. "just remember, you don't have to be perfect, sora. you have your teammates to fill those imperfections of yours."

"ne, sora-san, why are you so calm?" hinata called.

"hinata-san, this is nothing compared when he needs to do a recital," says kinnoshita.

"hisashi! you promised me to not tell anyone!" sorashi complained.

"he puked straight after his recital," narita added.

"kazuhito!"

"he even almost fainted," ennoshita alson added.

"ugh, chikara! y'all the worst."

kageyama whipped his head to the commotion. "sora-san, why don't you invite us?"

tsukishima rolled his eyes, "it's because you will wreck the recital with your dumbassery."

"huh?!"

"urusai!"

they stood on the sidelines, anxiously waiting for the opposing team. and i mean by anxiously is, everyone is panicking.

meanwhile sorashi stood calmly. eyes closed, arms folded in front of his chest. he tried to meditate before the game started. this moment is the best time to meditate and stopping himself from too caught up with the moment.
