As they finish the kiss, no word come from them, they just staring at each other. Of course, Momoi was surprise with the sudden action. As time passed, Momoi's face become redder as she realize what actually happened, she closes her mouth using both of her hand.
'Tetsu..-kun?' Momoi still can't believe that Kuroko actually have kissed her.
Of course Kuroko notice this.
"Ah.. I am sorry. I.. I can't help it" Kuroko says as he turns to other side, hiding his embarrassment.
"i..it's okay.." Momoi mumbles as she turns to other side too.
Silent engulf them.
A moment later, Kuroko start to say something to stop the silent.
"Say, where should we go next? It's still early to go back now." Kuroko pretend to look at his watch. Actually he is still awkward with the silent.
"I don't know either. This is the first time I come to this city." Momoi says, she also tries to shush all her shyness from the incident.
"Really? I am the one who familiar with this city. I once live here..together with my late parents" Kuroko tells Momoi, but there's a bit off with his tone. Is it sad? Yeah, it is.
"You were? No wonder you know the roads in this city." Momoi stare at Kuroko, try to read the blue sky hair teenager's mind.
"Yeah." Kuroko replies silently.
Momoi look at Kuroko with a soft look. She knows what happen to Kuroko before, and she could feel its pain Kuroko to even says about it.
"Tetsu-kun.. if it's pain for you, maybe you shouldn't remember about it. I.. I can't bare looking at you when you make that look. I am sorry if I have made you remember the sad thing." Momoi says as she rubs smoothly at both of Kuroko's cheek using her hands.
Kuroko a bit shock but attempt to accept Momoi's hand on his cheek. He closes both of his eyes, feeling the comforting feeling as Momoi continues doing so.
Momoi didn't say anything, she know Kuroko always seeking for a love from other, although it not obvious enough as Kuroko always making his stoic look all the time.
Kuroko moves his hand to Momoi's hand; he opens both of his eyes and look at Momoi with a look full of love in it.
"I'm okay now. I think, I need to introduce you to them." Kuroko says as he removes Momoi's hand and grip softly on it with his hands.
"Introduce me?" Momoi is pending a little bit.
"Yes. Let's go" Kuroko pulls Momoi's hand and lead the way.
=================KnB==================
"You gotta be kidding me! Where on earth have they disappeared to?" Aomine shout, frustrating. The news of Kuroko run away from hospital has already worried him adding with them unable to contact Momoi make he is more frustrating.
"Aomine-chii.. don't be angry at me. I didn't do anything. I just found out about this when I come here to check on Kuroko-chii." Kise makes his excuse.
"Maybe, Kurochin and Momoichin just take a walk outside the hospital. It is Momoichin time to take care of Kurochin." Murasakibara says with his big voice. He looks calm too.

"That idiot, how come he can run away from hospital when he is not in a good state?!" Midorima looks angry but actually he is just too worried about his friend. Well, he is a Tsundere.
"We need to search around this area more. Although Momoi would be with Kuroko, it is bad if Kuroko's sickness come back. We need to find them as soon as possible" Akashi gives command to all of them with a warning that is anything can happen in a short time.
"Let's go." Akashi says and the other of Kiseki no Sedai members nod their head in agreement.
=======================KnB====================
"Otou-san, Oka-san.. I have come for a visit" Kuroko knee on the ground while hold his hand on the gravestone which have both his parents picture.
His mother was a beautiful lady with a blue eyes and black long hair, full of emotion on her smiling face. His father was a handsome man, with a hazel eyes and blue sky hair, having the same facial as Kuroko, a emotionless young man but the smile is still sweet to look at.
"It's nice to meet both of you, Kuroko-san." Momoi greets Kuroko's parent. Although they are not in front of them, they talk like they are in front of them. You can say it is a feeling.
"This is Momoi Satsuki, my friend. She takes care of me a lot while I'm sick. I also have more friends to be introducing to you but they still busy with their school days. I will take them here when they are free. There are few of them that I know since I was in Teiko and few of them from my high school, Seirin. I know them because of Basketball..." Kuroko keep on talking.
Momoi just listen on what Kuroko is saying. 'He sure talk a lot when he with his parent' Momoi thought.
"I am thankful that you introduced Basketball to me Otou-san. I love them more and they give me so much things that I can't never forget. Memories, courage, teamwork, happiness, friends, achievement and most of all, the word of 'never give up'. Thanks Otou-san, Oka-san.. I missed you a lot. I really hope that you can see me grow up in front of your eyes but..I know, there must be a reason why Kami-sama took you." Kuroko's grip on the gravestone becomes harder as he try to control his emotion.
Suddenly, a hand reaches on Kuroko's. It is Momoi's.
"Don't worry, Kuroko-san. I will always take care on Tetsu-kun for you. I will see he grow up for you. I will be the eyes of both of you. I ensure you, we will always by Tetsu-kun's side until the end. We will help him on fighting his illness." Momoi says with a smile look on her face. It was a honest and innocent one. Kuroko a bit taken with what Momoi said but the speech let his mouth to travel more on his cheek. It is one of Kuroko's biggest smiles.
"You know Oka-san, I think I have found someone who is just like you and I notice that I have feeling for her. I think you can guess who she is."Kuroko's sadness already gone, being replace with a warm and loving feeling.

Momoi taken back with what Kuroko is saying. She turns to look on Kuroko and that time she just notice that Kuroko have been looking at her as he talks.
'It can't be' Momoi's unconsciously says it out loud.
Kuroko is smiling. "Yes, it is you. I love you Satsuki"
Momoi's eyes widen. Everything around them seems to stop. The only thing that Momoi could hear is her heartbeat strongly beating on her chest. Without she knowing, tears fall on her cheek.
"I...I love you too Tetsu-kun.." Momoi stutter as she replies Kuroko.
"I'm happy. Thank you Satsuki.." Kuroko says as he moves his body forward and kiss Momoi's hand.
Momoi can't help to not blushing at this, Kuroko is so gentleman. She not regretting on picking him as her crush long time ago. She not regret on knowing Kuroko. She just feels grateful with Kuroko by her side.
"I'm happy too. I can't help not to cry. I have waiting for this moment a long time ago. I have loved you so many years before. Thank you for loving me back." Momoi's keep on crying as she speaks.
Kuroko wipes her tears. "You don't need to cry anymore. I am in front of you and always am; I will there for you and love you."
"Thank you.. Thank you Tetsu-kun"
=================KnB================
"I can't believe they can disappear just like that! Where have they are gone to?!" Kagami is screaming. Well. He got a call suddenly when he taking his dinner and almost spit all his dinner out as he hears that Kuroko is missing.
"For sure, they are not in this city." Riko says as she analyzes the place that Kuroko might go.
"Kuroko sure can make everything possible. How can he run away from the hospital without the nurses at the outside know?" Hyuga questions for the possibility. .
"He has a weak presence. We to almost tricked every time he use his misdirection." Teppei answers.
"This is when misdirection not a good thing. I never know he can hide his presence. Before, he is not this amazing." Ogiwara says excitedly.
"This is not the time to be excited" Midorima says a bit annoy.
"Sorry sorry.." Ogiwara laugh nervously.
"I still can't contact Tetsu's and Momoi's phone. Why are they aren't picking up their phone?" Aomine complains.
"Maybe their phone being turns off or low battery?"Murasakibara gives some reasonable excuse.
"Or maybe they being kidnapped?! Why should we do! Oh, we need to report to polis now!" Kise is freaking out.
"Keep your head calm Kise-kun. They are not being kidnapped. I ensure you that because I ask some people around here. They say they have seen someone who looks like Kuoko-kun and Momoi at the train station. I think they have planned to go somewhere else without telling any of us. I have a feeling they might arrive here any minutes from now." Akashi explains and guess where are Kuroko and Momoi.
Just as soon as Akashi done speaking, a voice greets them.
"Dai-channn!" Momoi runs toward Aomine when she notice Aomine's waist, standing in the middle of crowd people inside the Train station. "Ah.. Everyone is here too. What are you guys doing here?" Momoi asks innocently, not knowing that the person they waiting are them.
"Domo Minna-san" Kuroko bows.
Kagami is the one who run toward Kuroko first and smack the blunette head. Kuroko is winching in pain.
"Oww.."
"Baka! Where have you been huh? We have been searching for both of you around 5 hours now. Can't you even open you phone so that we can contact you?" Kagami keeps on babbling at Kuroko.
"Hey Satsuki! Why don't you tell us where are you going with Tetsu first before doing so?! We are worried. Tetsu is not in a good shape yet!" On the other hand, Aomine is babbling on Momoi.
"I didn't bring my phone." Kuroko reply bluntly.
"I am sorry.. My battery phone have already empty when we reach the aquarium." Momoi apologies while clapping her hands in front of her face as a sorry sign.
"Huarghhh.. Kurokochii.. I am so worried. Why.. Why don't you tell me?" Kise is wailing over Kuroko, hugging him.
"You do give us heart attack, Kuroko" Midorima says.
"I can't eat my snack because I need to search for you.." Murasakibara is sulking, to whom? No one knows.
"You can eat now, Murasakibara-kun. Its good enough we have found them. My guess is not bad." Akashi says as he praising himself.
"We are sorry for worrying you all." Kuroko says, emotionless?
"So, tell us now.. What happen?" Riko let her elbow touch Momoi's stomach.
Momoi's face suddenly turns red.
Everyone is shock with this sudden change.
"Oh ya.. What happen here? What have you done to Momoi, Kuroko?" Midorima says teasing slightly.
"It's nothing." And again Kuroko reply with emotionlessly. It is to hide what he feeling inside. Well, he is an expert on doing this.
"Really?" Kiyoshi ask in teasing tone.
"It is." Both Kuroko and Momoi say in the same time. Everyone can sense something fishy about them. Something is surely making Momoi acting weird.
"it's okay if both of you don't want to tell us. We will know about it one day eventually." Hyuga says.
Weirdly, Aomine is silence all the time. He is shock when he looks at Momoi sudden change; it is a first time in his life looking Momoi acting like this. Just like someone who fall in love and embarrass for the first time looking at her boyfriend.
And Aomine surely don't like this feeling. It is sad? Is it a jealousy? For sure, he it is not a happy one.

Children of Danu, People of Skill Book 1. (LitRPG/Gamelit)
Hi all, this is my first attempt at fiction ever. I'm sure it's awful, first attempts at new things usually are. Hopefully you can find something you like in it. I had a great deal of fun writing it. It's a basic Litrpg/Game, God sends you to a new world to do their bidding plot. I Know I did too much telling and not enough showing. I'm working on that. The underlying system is one haven't seen or done much. a full Point Buy system, like Gurps, Champions or the Hero system. After writing it a while, I see why folks don't do it. The record keeping is tedious. And once you start doing math in subsequent chapters, you can't go back and add more action, just because you dread redoing all the math. I've got about 80k words written in two "books" on the novel so far. I'm going to edit chapters and try to drop a couple a week till it's finished. Hopefully that will work for folks. I need to punch up the amount of action. I'll be working on that as well. Thanks, Cal-P.S> The cover art is one of the two CIrce Paintings By Waterhouse.
