Chapter 4 The Slow Child
Chapter 4 The Slow Child
"Senior Oikawa, can you teach me how to serve?"
"Yada! Yada! Lelelelelelelele!"
Iwaizumi's mouth twitched uncontrollably when he saw his best friend crossing his arms and making childish faces.
After a few games, Kageyama Tobio has been respecting and worshipping Oikawa Toru.
Although the man in front of him behaved very childishly, he looked completely different on the court.
Senior Oikawa on the court was always at ease, with skillful receiving and blocking, sharp and powerful serves, and a second pass that could fully mobilize his teammates. This man is really amazing!
Kageyama Tobio has been rejected by Oikawa Toru no less than three times, but he still sticks with Oikawa Toru. Oikawa
Haruka was worried that Oikawa Toru would practice until late, so she often went to the volleyball hall to ask him to go home during this period.
Whenever Oikawa Haruka walked into the volleyball hall, she could find her brother at a glance. Because there is always a little tail behind her brother.
Whenever Toru Ikawa saw his sister, he would rush into the dressing room, change his clothes quickly, and run away with Haruka Ikawa.
He would always refuse with a smile: "Excuse me, what did you just say? My sister is here to take me home. Let's talk next time."
Whenever Haruka Ikawa faced Toru Ikawa using her as an excuse, she would observe the boy who had been rejected and perfunctory. She was curious whether a person who had been rejected would open his mouth again.
Normal people would definitely show abnormal loss after being rejected, or would not ask that person for help again. However, the reason why Kageyama could attract her attention was that he always acted like he was not the one who was rejected.
His eyes were always so bright, as if he would never let those beautiful blue eyes be stained with dust because of being rejected.
The cicadas were chirping and summer was coming. The brother and sister were walking on the way home.
Haruka Ikawa suddenly said: "Tetsu, don't run away."
Toru Ikawa was like a kitten whose tail was stepped on, and said: "How could I!" Obviously, he had clearly rejected him, but Kageyama was more persistent than he thought.
Haruka Ishikawa raised her slender eyebrows: "Well~ you know what I'm talking about." To her, the relationship between Toru Ishikawa and Kageyama is like a kitten's reaction to an alien species.
Toru is now in a stage where he is afraid that Kageyama will catch up with him, so when Kageyama gets close to him, he will bare his teeth like a cat defending his territory.
During this period of time, the scenes of Toru Ishikawa and Toru Kageyama's relationship always passed through her mind.
Whenever she thought of the boy who was constantly rejected but didn't know how to adapt, she couldn't help laughing and shaking her head. What a slow-witted child.
It's true that whoever you say comes, Kageyama appears in front of Haruka Ishikawa in the blink of an eye.
Toru Kageyama is standing in front of the vending machine in front of Haruka Ishikawa. He pursed his lips, his eyes swaying back and forth, as if he was in trouble and stopped in front of the vending machine without moving.
Haruka Ishikawa shook her head silently. Here it comes again. She calmly walked to the side of Kageyama Tobio: "Do you need help?"
Kageyama Tobio overreacted and raised his head: "No, no."
Haruka Ishikawa expressed serious doubts about this. She carefully looked at the vending machine and found that the coin had been inserted, but the drink had not been selected.
She asked in confusion: "What do you want to drink?" Doesn't he know how to use it? This shouldn't be the reason. This child is just slow, not stupid. It should be something else...
Kageyama Tobio's fingers were tangled and twisted: "Milk. No, yogurt! Uh, no..."
Haruka Ishikawa interrupted him with a smile: "Wait, wait, when you don't know which one to drink, just do this." It turns out that he has difficulty making decisions.
Kageyama Tobio looked at Haruka Ishikawa curiously. Under Kageyama's gaze, Haruka Ishikawa stretched out two fingers and pressed the buttons for milk and yogurt at the same time.
Beep——Oikawa Haruka took out a box of milk: "Here you go. Next time you don't know what to drink, just press both buttons. Drink whichever one comes out~"
Kageyama Tobio took it with both hands with admiration in his eyes: "Thank you so much!" Senior Oikawa is so awesome!
Oikawa Haruka narrowed his eyes and said in a steady voice: "You're welcome."
Oikawa Haruka thought of the scene in the volleyball hall and called out to Kageyama: "Kageyama-kun, wait a moment."
Kageyama Tobio slowly retracted his right foot that had originally stepped out: "Yes?"
Oikawa Haruka lowered his head, took out change from his wallet and slowly stuffed it into the vending machine: "Did Toru agree to teach you to serve?"
Kageyama shook his head blankly, and Oikawa Haruka glanced casually at the students playing diagonally: "Really? Then do you still want to ask him for help?"
Kageyama Tobio smiled when he heard this: "Senior Oikawa is awesome. I want to learn from him and become as awesome as him!"
Oikawa Haruka squatted down and took out two bottles of grape juice from the vending machine. His eyes curved into crescents. He was such a slow and clumsy child.
Iikawa Haruka stood up with two bottles of grape juice: "Sometimes it would be better to change the method. Toru will not agree to your request."
Kageyama Tobio blinked twice in confusion and looked at her blankly.
Iikawa Haruka saw this and sighed and handed him the grape juice: "For the person who rejected you, repeated requests are a nuisance. However, I think with your talent, you can learn from the perspective of an observer. You don't need to ask that person, you can observe and learn carefully."
Kageyama Tobio closed his eyes and thought for a moment. Senior sister meant that I should learn secretly.
"I understand, thank you senior sister!" After saying that, he bowed and wanted to go to the volleyball hall to practice immediately.
Iikawa Haruka saw that he couldn't hold back, and said: "Wait a minute, take the juice first. One bottle is for Toru, and the other bottle is my treat, go." Her hands were sore from lifting, she really met all these volleyball fanatics!
In the volleyball hall,
"Senior Oikawa, here you go."
Oikawa Toru looked at the grape juice handed to him with a proud and defensive face: "Even if you buy me a drink, I won't teach you."
Kageyama scratched his head: "This is what Senior Oikawa asked me to bring to you."
After hearing his sister's name, Oikawa Toru relaxed his eyebrows and his expression returned to normal. Then he waved his hand and took it without hesitation: "Really?" Haruka actually asked Xiao Feixiong to bring him his favorite grape juice. I don't know what she was thinking.
However, it seems that Xiao Feixiong is not as noisy as usual.
"Senior, can you teach me to serve?"
"No." "
What about tomorrow?"
"No."
As the senior sister said, Senior Oikawa would not agree to teach him. The
members in the volleyball hall listened to the conversation between the two with their eyes and noses, and they always felt that Senior Oikawa's attitude seemed to be a little relaxed.
After getting the answer, Kageyama Feixiong silently walked to the other side of the court to pad the ball, and Oikawa Toru also started practicing with Iwaizumi.
As the sky was stained with yellow, Toru and Iwaizumi realized that the time was almost up, so they headed towards the student council.
Meanwhile, Haruka was still working overtime on paperwork.
Rustle, rustle, in the office, besides the light breathing of Haruka Ikawa, the rest is the sound of the pen rubbing against the paper.
When Ikawa Toru arrived at the door of the office, he pushed open the wooden sliding door and said, "I'm coming!"
Haruka Ikawa said without even raising his head, "Wait for me for a moment."
Suddenly, he felt a weight on his shoulder and a warm touch on his face. Toru Oikawa placed his head on Haruka's shoulder and rubbed his cheek against Haruka's face: "Ha~lu~ Let's go, let's go. These don't have to be finished today. Workaholics get old easily." Haruka Oikawa
felt hopeless as Toru rubbed her. She had a headache and wanted to move Toru away from her: "You get up first, can't we go?"
Iwaizumi clicked his tongue and grabbed Toru Oikawa's collar: "Don't make trouble for Haruka!"
Toru Oikawa was carried to the sofa, he hugged the pillow and nestled on it with a smile and said: "Okay. But why did you let Xiao Feixiong bring me the juice?"
Haruka Oikawa paused in closing the pen cap, and continued to cover the pen cap the next second: "It was just a coincidence."
Toru Oikawa's eyes rolled around, not knowing what he was thinking. Seeing this, Haruka Oikawa changed the subject: "Xiao Feixiong, you call me so intimately." Obviously, this guy was calling him Kageyama, Kageyama yesterday.
Iikawa Toru got up from the sofa: "Nao, are you okay? If you're not okay, I'll leave." He just felt that he didn't seem to be that unbearable to him, and it was definitely not because of the grape juice today!
Iikawa Haruka and Iwaizumi looked at each other and smiled: "Okay, okay." They all knew that Toru was still easy to coax.
