CompletedThis novel is complete. Thank you for your support. The cover image was for the former title, "When the Breeze Brushes the Net."
My next pre-publication novel, "Teru Teru Bozu Tezuka-kun," is now available.
To Yuihara Kooru's youth—it was ordinary with occasional bursts of brilliance, and everyday moments shimmered like stars.
After local player Yukimura Seiichi won the French Open, Tokyo media quickly interviewed his high school teachers and alumni.
Ms. Kinomoto, Yukimura's former homeroom teacher, adjusted her pink spectacles and said, "Yukimura was a very gentle person, especially towards Yuihara-san. Oh, it brings back such wonderful memories!… What, you're asking about his tennis skills? Well, of course, he was number one!"
Sanada-kun, who was the vice-captain of the tennis club at the time, said, "Yukimura is an excellent tennis player; winning the championship is not unexpected… Hmm, I have nothing more to say."
Niou Masaharu, now a renowned magician, said, "Puri, his tennis skills go without saying. As for his daily life, he was probably like a 'waiting-for-his-wife' stone on the road outside the tennis court!"
"Yukimura?" Cardio-thoracic surgeon Yagyu Hiroshi said, busy working, "A very good captain. I learned many ways to get along well with my girlfriend from him."
...The reporter changed the question.
"It should be Yukimura who was more afraid of Yuihara leaving him. After all, he could be said to have fallen in love at first sight with Yuihara in his first year of high school."
"Yuihara is also a very outstanding woman. They are very happy together."
"I think they owe their relationship greatly to the book I gave them," said Marui Bunta, the owner of a cake shop, proudly. "The name of the book? I'll have to look for it carefully; I won't tell you."
"Who fell for whom first? It must have been Yukimura who fell in love at first sight with Yuihara. He is someone who, once he makes up his mind, will definitely achieve it."
"At first? Yukimura also received many 'friend zone' cards…"
The gears of the story turn to its beginning. This is a story about a volleyball girl and the "Son of God." The theme is to strive hard for a youth that only happens once.
