The First Encounter

P.O.V of Rein: I was in primary school when I first fell in love in the sport badminton. The way the shuttle flow towards you and the way you hit it with your racket with a good position that makes a perfect hit. I was a 4th grader when I entered this sport and I'm full of excitement at the same time eagerness to be strong, skillful, and good a playing badminton. I only thought this things but when I saw a boy playing badminton in our school which I've never seen playing before that makes me totally amaze and caused my heart to beat faster than it used to and have that kind of feeling for the first time and everything I've told myself shattered into pieces.

One member of badminton club: "Hey rein have you seen that guy before here playing?"

Rein: staring to the boy blankly. he was startled when he was asked by one of their members. "ahh! Hu.. huh? no I've never seen him before playing here at the court."

One member of BC: "Hmm. his so skillful and good at playing and the way he moves and hit the shuttle is so calculated. mmhh... why not we ask him to join the team don't you think rein?"

Rein: "Ye..yeah. hahha you think so too? well yeah we'll ask him to join. He's so amazing at playing... I've never seen someone played like that." in total awe and was blushing a little.

Rein approached the boy that is playing badminton in the court while blushing but trying to hide it with a confident smile.

Rein: " Uhmm. Hi I'm Rein Haneda, I'm one of the members of badminton club here in school. uhmm we would like to ask you to uhmm join our club?" the boy stared at rein head to toe. "ahh. don't worry we don't force you to join right now but, Uhmm well... you know you're so good at playing badminton and the way you play it looks like you're a player..."

The boy: "Tsk. Annoying.." then left rein to be silent and embarrass.

rein was shock and felt a little embarrassment that cause him to have a long sigh.

One member of BC: running towards rein and asked him of what happened. "Hey rein how was it? did he accept your offer to him to join our team?"

Rein: "I... I think he doesn't want to join our team." with a sad smile in his face. he left looking down the ground while walking away from his team mate.

When the school time ends rein fixed his things and prepared for a leave and call it a day, but when he was in the hallway of there school building he saw the boy in the next room leaning his head to his chair sleeping. He was confused why the boy didn't left yet even it was the end of class. He look around to see if there are people outside the hallway and then entered inside the room where he saw the boy. He saw him sleeping quietly. rein tries to tap his shoulder. The boy went awake and was shocked that he forcefully grab rein's hands and locked him in his arms on the floor. Rein was afraid and tried to explaining what he wants to do to him with stuttering voice.

Rein:" I.. I just want to... to wake you.. be.. because it was already time to leave the school and I.. I thought you were not aware of the time be.. because you were sleeping... so I tried.. to wake you up..I didn't mean to harm you.." with a teary eyes because of fear for he saw that the boy is totally pissed at him of what he was trying to do.

The boy:" Tsk.." he then released rein and stand up. He saw that rein was a little bit scared for what he did which is glaring at him. He then felt very annoyed of what he did.

The boy: He looked to where rein is using only the peripheral eyesight. sigh then felt a little guilty for being so aggressive to rein.

"I'm sorry and...thanks." then left rein inside the room all alone and silent trying to process everything that happened.

Rein: Breathing so hard. Heart beatfast. Putting his both hands to his chest"ha.. ha.. that was quite scary. I thought he will hit me or something." then rein stand up and then leave the classroom.

After that day when morning comes... rein woke up 10 minutes late and so he was rushing going to school... while he was rushing he bump into someone who is ahead of him in the way and he hit his head into that someones back and then drop down on the ground... when he looked up with a pain in the head and *** and was trying to brush the pain... he then apologize but when he look that person it was the boy yesterday...
