It was weekend and volleyball club had extra practices on that day. Everyone of them was warming up for their morning jogs. Ayumu held her guide book closed to her chest as she looked at the members with a smile.

"Yumu, why not ya join us jogging too?" Atsumu voiced out, taking everyone's attention. The team members were quick to turn their head on Ayumu's direction who now had a trouble smile on her face. Their sudden gaze and Atsumu's blunt statement made Ayumu had no time to process for some words to reply. Her lips were like goldfish's inside the bowl escaping air as they were opened and closed yet nothing escaped.

"Miya will stay back here. She's not joining." Kita instantly butt in whenever he realized the situation Ayumu was in. Ayumu looked at him who didn't spare a glance on her direction but to the members.

"The many, the merrier, Shinsuke." Omimi said as some of the members nodded their head, hoping Kita would change his mind.

"No." The captain stated. "She will help us to prepare some drink for us when we come back."

Then, he turned in flash towards where Ayumu was. Through his eyes, Ayumu could say Kita wanted her to talk a little word so it could stop the members from pestering more.

"Y-yeah. Kita's right. I'll prepare some drinks for ya. So, jog safely okay?" She grinned only gained the members nodded their head in surrender. Both brothers of her started having this pouty sulky face until Kita's voice echoed at the area once again.

"We are going now." Kita commanded. The members didn't disobey either so they started to walk to the school gate as they would start their jogs from there. Whenever the members left from one member to another, Kita was the last one at behind.

"Don't do anything heavy." Kita reminded her as Ayumu glared at him.

"I know. No need to remind me. Go and catch up with others, Mr Captain."

With that, he left instantly. Ayumu could only heaved a sigh as Kita's figure finally gone from her view. Now, she was by her own inside the gym. Ever since the day whenever Kita finally knew the reason why Ayumu stopped playing, he started being a little protective than before. It's kind of suffocating. Not like she wasn't appreciating his kindness but if he kept on being that kind of way, the members would start getting suspicious. Especially, her brothers.

Sigh. . .

Ayumu put down her book on a bench nearby as she went to prepare for the boys' drinks. She had thought about to fill up the big container of water instead but yeahㅡKita already reminded her about not doing something heavy...And not like Ayumu would like to take the risk either. Her asthma had slowly recovered already so she didn't want to welcome the illness again.

Picking up the members bottle, she filled up one by one and brought to the bench. To kill the time while waiting for the members to come back, she read her guide book. The books that filled with volleyball thingy. The regimen, the trick and the steps. As she was studying the movement, her phone inside her club jacket suddenly rang. Ayumu fished the phone out from her pocket and looked for the caller.

Her lips instantly sealed as she took a deep breath in. Putting down the book, she answered the call. She didn't know what she should expect from the caller but all she could do right now was, just preparing her heart, her mind and soul.

"Helloㅡ"

"You really hello me after not telling me what happen?" He scolded her through the line. Ayumu closed her eyes tight, holding her breath inside as the caller kept on nagging to her "What should I do with you? Should I go to Hyogo right now and smack the head of yours myself? Or you want me to tell your brothers myself? You have no idea how worried I am when I knew your asthma attacked you again. Why are you so stubborn?"

Ayumu heaved a sigh before she begun to speak. " Tobio, at least give me time to breath can?"

She could listen to Kageyama clicking tongue. "You know what, I am so close to losing myself when Oikawa-san told about this to me."

"Too ni chanㅡ told you himself? Not Iwa nii chan this time?"

Its kinda weird and surprise to be honest. The Oikawa Tooru she knew would never want to have any business with Kageyama Tobio no matter what it was. Because, if they ended up meeting each other, glaring was the only way of their communication skill. Hence, Iwaizumi would be the one who could call as information sender to Kageyama for all this time.

"Yeah...I also surprise too. When he came to me, you have no idea how much I wanted to make fun of him crying right infront of me." Kageyama said. "Until he mentioned to me about you."

"Tobioㅡ"

"No, there is no explanation to hear when I heard everything from Oikawa-san already. And I have nothing to say more about this. If you cannot listen to your Too-nii chan and Iwa-nii chan, I don't think you will listen to me too."

There was disappointment laced over his voice. Ayumu could not deny how painful her feeling right now. First, Oikawa and then Iwaizumi and now, Kageyama.

"Don't mad at me Tobio. Enough with Too-nii chan and Iwa-nii chan mad at me. I cannot endure if you are mad at me too~" she retorted as Kageyama sighed. "You know we just want the best for you. None of us want to see you get warded again. I don't want to talk about your brothers when you not even try to tell them the truth. But for now, I could say, I am grateful that your asthma is not that serious. . .but still, do you really need to wait till it's getting worst so you can finally tell your brothers?"

Ayumu had no word to say. She knew, there was no point for her to say thing because Kageyama was right after all. She could not argue with him about it. Yet still, there was no slight of intuition inside Ayumu's heart to tell her brothers about this. To her, as long as she could keep this hidden, then be it. Let the universe exposed it later.

"You have nothing to say anything either, don't you? Because you know I was right, right?" He sounded. Don't wanna admit but she needed too. "Hmm."

"Everything is in your hand right now." Kageyama added.

"I'm not telling them. I promise I am not going to play anymore even they ask me too."

"Suit yourself then,Miya."

By him called her with her last name, Ayumu's eyes widened.

"What with Miya now?"

"Because I am mad with you obviously."

"Tobioㅡ"

"I need to go now. The practice is starting. Bye."

With that, the calls hang up before Ayumu had chance to say good bye to him. There was no word she could utter right now. Only taking a few deep breath in and exhaled them later. She could feel her eyes were getting teary but she didn't let the tears fall down on her cheeks. If they did, it would be big trouble to her. And the time for the boys came back after jogs also getting closerㅡso, held the tears inside instead.

As she put down her phone on top of her book, she took her own bottle as she drank from it, wetting her now dry throat. Shaking her head, patting her cheeks, she looked at a clock where attached to the gym's wall. Then, she been on her feet as she started to gather the bottles at the entrance doorㅡwaiting for the team to come back.

Ayumu arranged one by one of the bottle on the doorstep until she heard the familiar energetic voices.

"A!"

"YU!"

"MU!"

She turned towards the direction only found her two brothers ran in full speed towards her. Looking at her brothers now, she could see them as bull in the fight and now herself was a red flag.

"YA STUPID TWIN!!YOU GONNA HURT YER SISTER IN THAT SPEED!!"

Ayumu had no idea who said that. Everything was fast but also it happened in slow motion too. To say, she could see how Osamu and Atsumu were glaring at each other before the looked at Ayumu again and reached out their arms in term of hugging her.... However, as the brothers were getting closer, Ayumu instantly moved away from the track of her brothers' which made the two brothers fall on the ground together and not forgetting too, sliding on the ground as wellㅡas they missed to get a grip of their sister and their pace.

"YUMU!" Atsumu whined.

"Ya mean!!" Osamu added, as two guys chinned up their head looking at their sister with their face dusted with sand. Ayumu looked down at her brothers with side glances. "I would love to be in ya hug but with the speed, I am not going to take the risk. Probably I gonna lost my limbs if I hug ya." She said and flopped down two clean small sized towels on each of Atsumu and Osamu faces as they took it with eyes glared at their sister.

"Here ya drinks." She handed two bottles two her brothers as they thanked with with unsatisfied smile. Leaving her brothers, sitting on the ground, Ayumu left for the other members as she handed out their own bottles and towels. Smile was invaded on her lips as she faced them. Even giggles escaped when Aran ruffled her head.

"Let me know if any of ya hurt yerself. I'll get the safety kit first, yeah." Ayumu said without breaking a smile as the members showed up 'okay' sign fingers. Sooner she turned around with her back facing the members, the smile on her face instantly gone. Thought of no one realised, but there was Kita; who saw the expression changing. Since Ayumu entered the gym so did the members too as they were getting break inside, Kita instantly approached her, holding her arm.

"What?" Ayumu said, without shine inside her eyes. Kita knew something was wrong. And the smile just now, was a force.

"Something happen? Did ya asthmaㅡ"

Kita not yet finish his words but when the word asthma escaped his lips, Ayumu's fist was so quick to hit his abdomen but Kita was fast held her fist, stopping her from hurting him physically.

"Don't say that word when we are in public." Ayumu gritted her teeth with eyes were narrowing when she looked at him.

"Sorry then. Ya look so gloomy unlike earlier." He said.

"It's not ya business. Just because ya know what I'm going through, it doesn't mean ya can act all caring with me. Just treat me like ya used to Kita."

Then, she left him behind and continued to the store for having the safety kit. Kita's eyes dropped looking at her small figure.

"Having conflict with ya girl, man?" Aran suddenly appeared while he was drinking his water.

"Huh?"

"Nothing." Aran said and left Kita bewildered as Aran joined the other members after that. Kita had no mood to being funny with him now either. Turning to Ayumu's direction again, she was already entered the store. Without wasting a time, Kita headed towards there.

"Miya."

Ayumu already not in a good mood now. And now, Kita really pestering her making her almost explode. Her face already showed everything that she wasn't in a good mood right now.

"What now?" Ayumu tiredly said.

"As I remember it now, I will just tell ya right now." Kita said.

"What is it?" She asked, turning around to reach out for the safety kit which placed up on the shelve that made her to be on her toes.

"For the replacement classㅡ"

"Didn't I toldcha that I am not attendingㅡ"

"This replacement class not for the class I forgot to come. Its for the two week ya absent." He said and took the safety kit himself, as he tired to see Ayumu was struggling for it.

As she turned around, they were kinda close to each otherㅡtheir torso; but none of them bothered. Kita handed the kit to her as a faint thanks left her lips.

"Okay. So?"

"Let's do the class at yer place then." He told her, making Ayumu crunched her face.

"For real Kita? Ya know, Tsumu and Samu also living under the same roof. Ya fine with it? With their noisy asses?"

"I thought bout it already. At first, I thought to ask ya to come to my place instead but I don't wanna take risk if yer happen fainting at the street. Who know the asthma will attack ya again."

Ayumu rolled her eyes as Kita went on.

"Plus, it still didn't make any changes. Yer brothers will definitely come together with ya to my place still. They will never let ya going alone. Didya see my point." Kita asked.

"Fine then. I'll tell Mama and Dada first bout this. Will inform ya later then. I don't think my parents have problem with it." Ayumu said, gaining Kita's nod. "Good."

And in the same time, Osamu came to the store room. His eyes darted to his sister straightly.

"Yumu. Look what Tsumu did to me." He said, pointing to cut on his face. There no deep cut but still red line at the corner of his lips.

"EXCUSE ME! I DON'T DO ANYTHING!! YUMU! SAMU HURT MY KNEES!" Atsumu from afar shouted.

"Hell ya! Ya don't have evidence!" Samu shouted back

For some reason, Ayumu could not say either Samu realised or not that Kita was in the same room as them. Shaking her head, she walked towards her brother and pushed him out of the store room.

"Yeah. Yeah..whatever ya two. Let me treat ya wound before ya guys got infected. Now line up." Ayumu said and sat on a bench nearby. And then, there her brothers fighting for who could get the treatment first.

"Its me first dumbass!"

"No! It definitely me! I'm eldest!"

Which at last, Suna came to Ayumu first getting the treatment, leaving the two brothers dumbfounded.
