One day left before Seirin high will be matched with Kaijo High and their train just like there is no tomorrow. They have observed how Kaijo plays and they have improved more than the last time they fought together. They use all of their teammates in a play, not depending on Kise alone anymore. Each of them has a different ability which helps them in winning a game.

For Seirin, they also improved, they still applying team play in their playing and with Kuroko still be a shadow for the team especially for Kagami, causing them to understand each other abilities more and also helping each other to recover their weakness.

Riko's father and Alex keep in touch with them since Winter Cup tournament. Their stamina increased rapidly because of Riko's father training as expected from a former trainer.

Kuroko didn't use his shoot much after defeating Rakuzan. Maybe because of he cannot control his law presence after using that shoot. So, right now he just doing his other techniques but not for the shoot anymore. All of them have been asked with new techniques to be applying for their play. And they do a post mortem on it, asking for everyone in the team opinions. Using the data as a basis for making their new techniques, everyone succession on making new moves. But still keep it as a secret so that their enemy doesn't recover it first.

It's only at 5 p.m they had stopped their training for the day.

"Alright, now I want all of you to have an enough rest so that you can pay attention and give your best for tomorrow. Dismiss" said Riko.

All of them preparing to go back home, suddenly Furihata asking if they want to spend time together at Magi Cafe, the usual place which they always spend time together other than the basketball court. All of them agree with that suggestion and they continue heading toward the Magi Cafe.

Everyone ordered a set of burger and soft drinks. Kagami ordered ten burgers with soft drinks. While Kuroko only ordered for Vanilla Milkshakes. Everyone eyed him with disbelief looks.

"Erm. Kuroko, are you only going to drink that? Aren't you hungry after training?" asked Izuki, sweatdropped.

"Yes. And no, I don't feel like eating much" answered Kuroko.

"sigh. This is why you are fragile. Take one of mine" said Kagami, give one of his burgers to Kuroko.

"It's okay. I don't want" said Kuroko refuse the offer.

"Take it" stated Kagami.

"no. I don't want" stated Kuroko.

"Take it" stated Kagami again.

"No" stated Kuroko again.

"Stop it, guys. We are in café now. Kuroko, I think you need to take the burger. It is an order. " said

Hyuga takes advantage of his position in the team.

"I want you to take it too" stated Riko, agreeing with Hyuga.

"Yeah, you need to eat some of it. Half is enough, as long as you eat." Said Tsuchida.

Kuroko stares at the burger for a while and takes it after few second passed. The others smiled and started to chat back, talking about Basketball of course.

Kuroko opened the plastic that wrapping the burger and bite a bit. Then he passed it to Kagami back.

Kagami frown.

"Hey, finished it. I don't want to take what you left behind." Said Kagami.

"I am already full," said Kuroko.

"You just bite once and you said you have already full? Are you really a human being? Finish it." Said Kagami.

"Then I will throw it away" stated Kuroko as he already gets up and proceeds to a rubbish bin at the corner of the wall.

"Stop. I will eat it. Don't throw it just like that. It is my money, you know." complain Kagami. Kuroko sits back at his seat.

"I am wondering, what is your tummy made from? You are barely eating anything. " Said Koganei while cares at Kuroko's stomach.

"My stomach is just as same as all of you. Nothing different.I don't really like eating much. " answered Kuroko. All of them sigh thinking just how hard to make the bluenette eating more portion than usual.

"Maybe you should change your portion of the meal. Take more carbohydrate and protein other than a milkshake. Maybe by that, you can be stronger and tougher when playing basketball. " said Riko, explaining a bit.

"I will change later "stated Kuroko.

They carry on their conversation until it already 7 p.m. At the outside looks already dark. They decided to walk back home already. Although they already outside the café, they still chatting like there is no tomorrow without noticing a certain bluenette already slow down his movements. His face looks like someone who is trying to withstand something that hurt.

'Why is my head hurt so much?' thought Kuroko silently. He could not join their conversation anymore. Everything looks blurring, just because of a headache. Then the next thing he could feel the burger that he had eaten before going up back to his throat. He searches for a place to vomit. He looks at the corner of the wall and runs toward it. He bends his body and throws up all his stomach contains, including his vanilla milkshakes.

Mitobe heard Kuroko's and he calling all his teammates to look at Kuroko, which all of them shocked. They go to the bluenette and try to calm down the bluenette. After there is nothing left to being throw up, Kuroko straightens his body back. Riko gives him a handkerchief which he takes it with thanks.

"Are you alright, Kuroko?" asked Hyuga, concerning about the bluenette.

"It looks bad," said Koganei as he looks at the liquid on the ground.

"I am alright. Thanks for concerning" said Kuroko, wiping his mouth using Riko's handkerchief.

"Have you seen a doctor? Don't tell me you don't, " said Kagami.

"I don't have time yet" answered Kuroko.

"Hey, you know this is getting worse right? Why don't you just checking up with the doctor? Don't be stubborn!" angered Kagami. He just worried about the bluenette which becomes worse as the day passed.

"Don't be angry with sick people. Don't you parents teach you about manner?" asked Izuki. He just doesn't want Kuroko to become sicker after being scolded.

"Don't fight. I am sorry. I will go checking up after tomorrow match finished. " said Kuroko, calmly. He has already calmed down but his headache still there, maybe because of the stress.

Kagami observes the bluenette, then he bends down in front of the bluenette. "Climb up," said Kagami. Kuroko looks at him with weird looks do not really understand what the red head talking about.

"Let Kagami pickaback you. It must have already taken your energy away when you vomit before, " said Fukuda.

"I will send you to your home," said Kagami again.

"Is it okay?" asked Kuroko. Just to confirm it, he feels the same as what Fukuda said before. Most of his energy already slipping out as he vomits before. "

Kagami nodded his head followed by the others. Slowly, Kuroko climbs up Kagami's body and relaxing. Kagami stood up and walk away. Not before saying goodbye to his teammates.

As they walking at the street, Kagami always took a peek Kuroko's face which looks a little pale and exhausted. He really worried now, The bluenette also looks thinner than before.

"are you eating well now? You look not in a good shape" said Kagami, with a bit worry tone in his voice.

"I don't know, sometimes I just don't have an appetite. "Answer Kuroko.

"You need to force yourself to eat more. It feels like I don't carry anything on my back. You weight are too light. "said Kagami.

"I will try," said Kuroko.

"Hey, are you okay to play tomorrow? You look worse now. Maybe you should just stay at the back tomorrow" said Kagami.

"No. I will play" said Kuroko, shortly.

"But.."

"No but. I have already promised them. I will never ignore the promise" cut Kuroko before Kagami could say anything else.

Kagami sighed in defeat. Then he said "Alright, alright. But you need to promise me something. If ever, and I mean ever you feel sick, say to us. We will replace you with another player before you recover back. " said Kagami.

"Deal," said Kuroko.

They keep talking until only Kagami is the one talking. He peeking at Kuroko again, only to welcomed by Kuroko's sleeping face. He sighed again.

"I just hope nothing bad will happen to him"
