I read the announcement on the wall magazine when I walked to my classroom. My eyes attracted with the word 'Manager'. A manager for a basketball team. Well, sounds good.
I heard that my school's basketball team was great. They were quite strong, they could manage on Inter-High even they couldn't enter the pre-eliminary one. But it's still cool for me.
"You gonna take that?" A voice attracted my thought for a while. I turned my head to the voice.
"Ehmm... Maybe. Because I like boys basketball team on this school. They're strong," I said. And I realized two pairs of eyes looked at me closely. It seems like they were waiting for something. And I can see tears. What? Tears?
"NO WAY!" My ears hurt because that screams. I narrowed my eyes for a while. I saw one of the girls beside me, cried? "No way, you wanna leave us, right, Nami?" She grabbed my shoulder and shook my body. Fast.
My body felt like a leaf, swing on two directions by this girl. "Eh!? W-wait a moment, Kaoru." I grabbed her hand, tried to stop what she did.
"Okay, waits a moment," I sighed as I felt tired because she did before, "why are you say I can't join them?" I pointed on the announcement behind me.
"Of course not!" Two girls have already screamed me out. Oh gosh! You know, it almost liked a full drive sound system from a Rock n Roll concert.
A girl who had a burger on her hand, Sena, took my hand. "You're our savior, you know." I could see her teary-eyes. "Our savior for our basketball team."
Kaoru nodded quickly. "Yeah." She took my hand. "You're our savior. If you aren't on our team again..." She sobbed. "O-our team will lose." She held my hand tightly.
Looked on two of my friend, made me sighed hard. I just already said it without thinking to it truly, they've already screamed out. Oh my God...
"Well, well, I think Nami can do whatever she want, doesn't she?" A sound cleared my thought for a while. Not far from my place, I could see a girl who has a blonde hair came to my place with another two of my friends.
"Nagare-senpai?" I asked.
She smiled a bit. "Well, I don't really matter with what you want to do, Nami." She took of Kaoru and Sena's hands from my hands. "Just be patient, girls. Nami won't go anywhere else, she just go to another club." She talked to them calmly. Tried to make them calm down their selves.
"But, but, Senpai, that's—" Kaoru tried to protest.
Nagare-senpai made an 'sshh' sound. "Everything was Nami's decision. Don't push her like that. I know that Nami was a great player and saved our team, but if this was her decision, we just could support her. 'Kay?"
Kaoru and Sena looked desperate, I felt sorry for them. But as Nagare-senpai said, it was my decision, no one could push me to turn it down.
"Arigatou, senpai," I replied. She turned her blonde's head, and smiled to me.
"Don't worry, Nami." I could feel her hand over my shoulder. "We still welcome you, if you want to go back."
I nodded. "Ehm. Yeah, someday." I replied a smile to her.
Like I said before, my friends seemed to hard to believe what I chose. Well, actually I finally chose to enroll to be the manager. They stared at me with their puppy-eyes looks, still tried to make me turn it down.
"Well, well, don't be so over, Kaoru, Sena. As Senpai said, I won't go any further, I just want to enroll something new though." I smiled at them. "I promised, I'll go see you on the gym when I have a spare time, 'kay?"
Heard what i told to them, they looked at me intensely. And by surprise, they hugged me tight. Like a teletubbies, as I thought. "Ehm. Promise it, Nami," Kaoru said.
I just sighed. "Yeah, promise." Well, some students looked at us like we were from another planet, hugged each other on a corridor, and made some noise. If I could hide my face, I wanted to do that. Truly. I tell you the truth.
And finally they released me to enroll that. Well, I quietly happy about that.
.

"So, you want to apply to be our manager, Kurosawa?" A girl who sat on her table asked me.
I nodded. "Yup. As you can see on my resume that I gave you," I replied.
She took her hands to look after other paper that scattered on her table. I stood in front of her desk on her class. Felt nervous sometimes.
She flipped my paper upside down. Then I looked her eyes widened, she looked at me, then back to the paper. Several times. Until a word came out from her lips. "Teikou?"
"Eh?"
"Are you from Teikou? Teikou Junior High?" she asked.
I nodded as I heard what she asked about.
"Then you are from same school with Kuroko-kun," she mumbled on herself.
I tilted my head. "You mean, Kuroko Tetsuya-kun?" I asked.
She looked at me, and then blinked. She nodded later. "Aa. Kuroko Tetsuya. That was I mean."
"Well, I know him. And I know them as well." I said.
Riko-senpai narrowed her eyes. "Them?"
I coughed a bit. Cleared my throat. "Them. Kiseki no Sedai."
She blinked several times, shocked because what I said to her. "You know them well? Hontou ga?" she looked surprised.
I nodded twice. "Ehm-hm."
"What are you doing on your junior high, until you know them well?" She inclined her head toward me.
I scratched my brown hair. "E-etto..." I smiled a bit. "Well, I—" I grinned to her. I just grinned to her, felt nervous from what Riko-senpai asked me.
.

I could hear some footsteps running inside the gym from the outside. Also some bounces of a ball's voices.
Now, I followed Riko-senpai to go to daily exercises on the gym. I walked behind her.
"Kurosawa-san, as I told you before, just explains yourself to them directly. Don't hide anything to them, 'kay?" she turned her head toward me.
I nodded slowly. "Yeah. I will, senpai. Don't worry."
"Good then." She smiled and then walked quietly fast through the gym, left me behind.
I ran after her. Then from where I stood, I can some silhouettes of people that running after each other, and also heard some bouncing balls sound. As I enter the gym, I could sense a basketball atmosphere around me. That's one I like. A sporty atmosphere.
Prittt.
My ears caught up a whistle's sound.
"Everyone! Gather up!" I heard a girl voice shouted to some students on the court. And at the moment, they froze on their spot, maybe felt surprised with the whistle's sound. After a while, they walked to Riko-senpai's place.
I walked a little bit slow than Riko-senpai, so after they gathered up, I could reach their place. As expected some boys stared at me with a big question mark on their eyes.
"Well, I have a news for all of you." Riko-senpai told them. She took her hand around her hips.
One of the boys who wore glasses, walked to Riko-senpai. "What news you wanna tell to us? Don't say you want to make another exercise after this," he said. His face looked worried. His eyes showed some frightened feeling.
"No, no, Hyuuga-kun. That's not the problem," she replied. "It's a good one." She make a mysterious smile.
She turned her head toward me. The boys followed Riko-senpai's head direction, looked at me intensely.
"We gonna have a manager from today. Since we'll have a lot of schedule before Winter-Cup. And I can't handle it by myself. So, I choose to have a manager for us." Her hand pointed on me. "And she will be our manager."
Boys widened their eyes. And suddenly they screamed out. "Ehh!? A manager?"
"Why?"
"Why so suddenly?"
"A manager? Seriously?"
"Real one?"
"Has Coach hit her head or something?"
Well, at least the last one scream, made Riko-senpai narrowed her eyes, took her hands in front of her chest, and made some horror looks.
I could tell you, one of the boys sweatdropped as well as he realised that his coach heard what he was talked about. He stepped back as Riko-senpai got attention on him.
"Well, well, now time for introduction, right, Riko?" An easy-goinger voice disturbed the crowd for a while. I could see a brown-spiky hair walked toward me.
And suddenly, he took his hand around my shoulder. "Can you introduce yourself to us?" he asked.
"Eh!?" I gasped.
"Don't do a sexual harrassment in here, Kiyoshi!" A glasses boy, who I remembered Riko-senpai called him Hyuuga-kun, yelled at the brown-spiky hair and pointed his hand that clang around my shoulders.
He giggled. "Hahaha... Hyuuga, that's not like that. I just want her to introduce herself, and..." He took his head near me, "I want some private introduction with me." He smiled.
I shocked. "Eh!?"
"Kiyoshi!" "Teppei!" Hyuuga-san and Riko-senpai yelled at same times.
And I took some step back from the brown-spiky boy that clang to me. Other boys just sweatdropped at their place.
I could see one of them murmured on himself. "I still don't understand Kiyoshi-senpai's behavior." Yeah, he's right. I, actually don't understand his inner behavior though.
Kiyoshi-senpai just giggled again. "Hahaha. Don't be so serious, guys." He took off his hand from me. "But I serious about the last one," he said with a serious face.
I just grinned.
"Maa, maa. Okay then. Let's go to the point next!" Riko-senpai shouted. She made a facepalm. "Now, introduce yourself, Kurosawa." She looked at me.
I nodded. Took a deep breath. Coughed a bit. "My name is Kurosawa Nami, from class 1-D, same with Furihata-kun." I rolled my eyes to Furihata Kouki that stood behind. And he realized my gaze, he just smiled a bit. I replied him.
"I applied as a manager because I like basketball, and I played some games when I was on junior high." I contiued my speech.
"Games? You mean a match?" the boy who stood beside Furihata-kun asked me.
I nodded. "Yeah. Well, actually—" I grinned, and my hand scratched my hair.
"She were from Teikou Junior High." I stared at Riko-senpai as she said that to them quickly. And as expected, they gasped, their eyes widened.
"What?"
"Really?"
"Teikou?"
"Kiseki no Sedai..."
I could hear there were a lot of question from their mouths. I truly didn't know what would I say, till I caught a soft-blue hair on my gaze.
"Kuroko-kun?" I whispered.
The boy that his name I whispered, turned his head around toward me. Looked straight to my hazel iris. "Ohisashiburi desu, Kurosawa-san," he said. Then he bowed quick.
The student turned their head to Kuroko-kun and to me. Several times. "Hisashiburi desu, Kuroko-kun. You look well," I replied.
Kiyoshi-senpai took his hand to my shoulder again. "So, you know Kuroko well, then? And how about Kiseki no Sedai, as well?"
I stared on him. "Ehm. I know them, too. Well, the word 'know' is not really true to my situation, maybe 'acquaintance' is the right word," I said.
As he heard my word, he etched a big smile on his face. And I could hear his chuckles. "Good then."
Some of the other players looked at me in disbelief with what I said. Yes indeed. If you know Kiseki no Sedai very well, and you could mention yourself to be an 'acquaintance', it meant that you were kind of some important person or had a special ablilty like them. And from their eyes, I could tell that they underestimate me. Honestly, I hated it.
I cleared my throat a little bit. I wanted to clarify what their expectations. "Ehm. Well, please don't look at me like that," I said. I stared on them intensely.
Heard what I say, they gasped. And I rolled my eyes at Riko-senpai that was covering her face now, thinking about how stupid her players were.
Riko-senpai opened her mouth. "Don't underestimate Kurosawa. Originally, she isn't an ordinary players, she was a hopefull player on Teikou."
"Yeah. Please don't underestimate me before you know me well." I smiled to them. "And—" I stopped my word. Then I looked on Kuroko-kun that stood on behind. He just made a deadpanned face again. Oh Gosh, how come he become so deadpanned like that.
"And?" like a choir, the boys copied my last word.
"And not truly like Riko-senpai said but I, one of the best player—I don't exaggerate myself, I just tell you the truth—beside I'm a captain before. A captain for the girl basketball team." I finished my word. Then I grinned to all of the players in front of me.
Silence.
No one talked, even I couldn't hear a breath after I said that. Their eyes slowly widened, their foreheads filled with sweat slowly, and their mouths dropped open, like an idiot (that was my opinion).
"EH!?"
The boys shouted a lot. I could feel the gym trembled because their screams just now.
"Really?"
I smiled. Well, just it that I could do, because what I said to them, was the truth.
