Tadashi Yamaguchi

It was always the three of you.

For as long as you can remember, you, Yamaguchi and Tsukishima have been a trio of best friends. They grew up together throughout elementary school and didn't let go of each other, being in every situation together, however, things seemed to have changed lately...

You remember it well. It all started when you were going to your school when you saw a group of boys making fun of a fallen little boy... That little boy was Yamaguchi. He was lying on the ground, vulnerable and scared, as the children threw stones, branches and even backpacks at Yamaguchi, calling him a freak, skinny and mangy. You simply can't watch that in silence, you remember the poor thing's pout like it was yesterday, so you ended up interfering. At that time, Tsukishima was also passing by and helped you protect Yamaguchi, and since then, you have been best friends.

But lately, Yamaguchi has noticed something... Different in your relationship. Honestly, Yamaguchi has always been close to Tsukishima, but now, he's realizing that you're also... Excessively close to Tsukishima, and this, for some reason, created a type of jealousy in Yamaguchi, since you weren't so close anymore. his... Now it was just Tsukishima there, Tsukishima here, and whenever he tried to talk to you about it, you denied it and the subject died.

Today, you and Yamaguchi had planned to go practice serving and receiving together after your training. Yamaguchi was already waiting for you in front of the gym door for you to go to the court. He wanted to go alone with you so you could spend some time alone, together. But Yamaguchi's expression immediately fell when he stopped you and you said you would go to Tsukishima's house, see him because he had a cold.

"Wait... Are you telling me you're going to see Tsukishima... Again?"

He asked deflatedly, squeezing the volleyball tightly in his hands.
