"Thank you" [Male name] thank his doctor before he leave, he don't want to stay longer in here, but stop when he see a familiar dark, chocolate-brown hair that is swept outwards on the match of Kiyoko's team.
Oikawa who's waiting for his name to be called look up when he feels someone is looking at him to see a familiar face. A familiar face on the match at Shiratorizawa and Karasuno, who's wearing a Rakuzan jacket. 'What is he doing here?' Oikawa thought as he smile to the male, who is now walking towards him and sit beside him.
"What are you doing here?" [Male name] ask the male beside him. "Why would I tell you? I don't even know you" Oikawa reply to [Male name].
"I'm [Male name] Shimizu, what about you?" He introduce to the guy. "You don't even know me yet you are talking to me, the name is Oikawa toru" He introduce himself.
"Since we are not stranger anymore can you tell me why you are here?" [Male name] ask but Oikawa ignore him, making the [Hair color] male sigh before start talking. "I'm here because I have a problem with my Knee, I am injured. I came here to get the knee brace" Making Oikawa look at him with eyes widened.
"Are you a player perhaps?" Oikawa ask making the other male nod. "What sports?" he ask the male again.
"Basketball, how about you what kind of sports are you playing?" Ask the tall male. "Volleyball, I came here because of a monthly check-up" Oikawa answer him, he doesn't know why he's opening up to this guy but it felt nice to talk to him.
"Check-up, why?" [Male name] ask again, making Oikawa look at him for a while before looking away and answer. "My knee, I overworked myself"
"I see, you should be careful from now on. Don't over work yourself, okay?" The male said to Oikawa who only nod.
[Male name] stand "I need to go now" He inform Oikawa who look at him and ask him for his number. The male give Oikawa his number after that he wave his hand and left the male.
[Male name] sigh because of his knee injury he didn't make it on the winter cup, maybe if he did make it Rakuzan will be the champion and not Seirin, but now no one can stop him for playing at the street basketball tomorrow. He didn't attend the practice today because he need to rest, he need to rest his knee so that he can play longer at the game.
