Nana knocks on the door twice then enters first letting Yuki behind her follow.
"Excuse me, guys, have your attention for a minute." Nana's voice interrupts the manager's locker locker.
Yuki glanced at her surroundings quickly then looked straight ahead. The locker room looked very simple, six high-lined lockers and one long chair lying in front of the locker.
Yuki noticed that two girls were busy with their lockers and one student was sitting in a long chair digging his shoes. They all widened their eyes to look at Yuki, even the sitting student directly covered her mouth with his hands.
"We have a new member, you know who he is." Nana turned to Yuki while smiling at him.
"Hachibara Yuki, greetings." Yuki said politely.
"I didn't expect." Knock on the one standing in front of the locker.
"If you look closely like this he looks very unreal." Connect with other students.
"You're not polite, introduce each other's names." Nana Tegur.
"Ouh sorry. I'm Hanami in 2-6, greetings." The short-haired female student I had in two bowed her body at a glance.
"I'm Akiko class 2-5, greetings know. Our class separated the stairs so maybe you never saw us." It was clearly Akiko, the thick-browed girl with a small fly t*hi under her eyes.
Yuki gave a small smile to answer Akiko's statement.
"Mmm, I'm ..." The sound of the murmur attracted everyone's attention.
The cute girl with the front bangs and well-tied hair tried to stand up stiffly.
"Sakura desu, 1-1. Sa salam know senpai!." The excitement ended as he bowed quickly.
"Hi hai (Yes yes) Sakura chan, you can stand up." Nana said shaking her hand.
"Because Hachibara san is still a layman about baseball please help him to adjust." The three of them understood.
"If you're done, please get everything ready, I'll accompany Hachibara and change clothes." Nana Pinta.
"Okay, come on Sakura." Invite Hanami out to be followed by Akiko and Sakura at the very back.
After the door closed, Nana approached the empty locker at the end of the wall.
"This is your locker, inside there's already a set of shirts and a set of jersey jackets and pants. You can wear between the two." Obviously Nana gave room to Yuki. The girl stood facing the door letting Yuki comfortably change clothes.
"The uniform of the manager's jersey and the jersey of the player are different." Nana Imbuh.
Yuki chose the same knee-length short shirt and shorts as the other managers wore, Yuki glanced at Nana making sure the girl did not look at her after Yuki's safety took off her uniform.
Chequek.
The sound of the locker door closing, Yuki walked over to Nana.
"It." Nana made sure by turning her head towards Yuki.
This girl is indeed very beautiful wearing anything, like rumors circulating, inner Nana.
"Let's go to the field in door." Yuki did not ask any further he just nodded and followed his senior.
Yuki had no idea that behind the canteen of the baseball club were two large rooms, one of which was an in door field for the practice of the pitching pitchers and the hitters, the other being the pitch, the other is a gym with full equipment.
Yuki acknowledges how very rich the school is, the baseball club alone is given facilities like this how with other clubs.
Yuki and Nana go into the pitch already the managers and the players line up neatly. The players faced forward beside the entrance and the managers lined up in front of the players but at the edge of the line, turned their backs on the door.
Yuki chose to stand beside Nana at the farthest end of the line of players making his figure visible only to players who lined up in the front row. Because the managers are lined up in a row making the players not feel anything strange.
The sound of heavy and steady footsteps rang out from the direction of the door, Mizutani and Suzune were standing in front of the players, three seconds later Hajime's calm and heavy voice suddenly sounded loud and resolute giving its members a cue.
"Ready! say hi!." Hajime Seru. They simultaneously bowed politely to Mizutani as well as the managers, Yuki hurriedly followed.
"Good day, coach!." Their screams gave Yuki goosebumps. Two seconds later they returned to their perfect position, Yuki just observed and followed.
What is this military, inner Yuki. The players with large tall bodies lined up neatly and white uniforms complete with hats made them look ready for battle.
"Today there will be a match simulation exercise on field A, after you finish practicing in your respective positions." Mizutani.
"Good!." They answered in unison, again making Yuki creep.
"Suzune san, how many times are we still on our training schedule?." Ask Mizutani.
"There are ten more times, tomorrow team A will compete in another school while team B continues to compete in school." Suzune.
"We collect this match practice experience as much as possible, on this match train also test your ability, challenge yourself to develop, show them your baseball game."
The long pidoto of Mizutani seemed to burn the spirit of the players visible from the look in their eyes, not only did the players of the managers do the same even the girls smiled.
"And one more." Mizutani. Argh, I hate this, Inner Yuki.
"Team has a new manager," Mizutani turned to look at Yuki. The strange silence was annoying, just like when Yuki was first introduced to the shareholders in the company. Leisurely Yuki took one step forward.
The goddess!, cried the players inwardly.
"Hachibara Yuki, please cooperate." Yuki looked down briefly.
"Senpai!, welcome to the baseball club !!." Exclaim someone Yuki knows.
Yuki glanced at the line of players, Inuzuka whose body was covered by the front row players tilted half her body waving towards Yuki. Of course it makes Yuki easily know the whereabouts of his junior. He smiled a little, Inuzuka's behavior always made Yuki want to smile.
It was the goddess!, she was truly a goddess!, the inner people who saw Yuki. Yuki returned to his line.
"Well, let's start training now." Mizutani said firmly.
"Good!."
The players walked towards the outside field regularly while Mizutani, Suzune, and the managers waited for them. Yuki had been unaware since earlier that there was a person observing his expression.
Hajime glanced at Yuki as he walked out, he saw Yuki smiling despite being very thin but the girl had already started smiling again. Since then Yuki has never glanced everywhere the girl looks flat like a beautifully sculpted statue.
After all the players came out Mizutani and Suzune just came out in the tailings of the managers behind him.
"Sakura Chan can get ice cubes in the canteen and teach Hachibara to fill the ice." Pinta Nana in the middle of the road.
"Good senpai." Answer Sakura quickly.
Suddenly the atmosphere became awkward, Nana and the others had already gone to take care of their respective duties. Sakura walked stiffly next to Yuki, the girl carrying two buckets in her hands Yuki took the initiative to help, grabbing the nearest bucket from her. Sakura who felt her bucket being pulled slowly was very surprised.
"Eh!." His shouting.
"Let me help." Yuki said, the girl moved increasingly stiff.
"Aren't you comfortable being next to me?." Tanya Yuki gave a little distance.
"Buok is not like that." Elak Sakura's.
"I just, can't believe I'm this close to someone I admire." Sakura's speech made Yuki raise one eyebrow.
"I'm still normal." Yuki's quick sergeant made Sakura look at him even more wrongly.
"A ak me too, me too .!, still normal. I like men." Clearly Sakura, her face turned pale. Yuki was still silent, he hesitated. Seeing that Yuki did not respond to her Sakura immediately kept silent and nodded her head steadily.
Waaah .., Hazuki's gone crazy now there's a girl so-genesis, inner Yuki.
"Pick." Yuki's reply finally made Sakura feel relieved.
"Aren't you the one who recorded the match score on team B two days ago?." Yuki started to remember the girl who gave him drinking water.
"Senpai remember ..?." Sakura looked at Yuki with a radiant face.
"Pick."
"Senpai was right, I gave senpai a drink." Sakura answered Yuki while continuing their journey.
"I accidentally saw senpai watching senior and junior matches from the sidelines, senpai looks so sweet like a teenage model makes me a little envious. But, I was amazed when senpai stood on the field with a glove (glove), hat, and baseball uniform looking very cool. What else when senpai made such amazing throws made me decide that senpai was my idol." Sakura explained with a smile, Yuki glanced slightly to the side.
Well, now that one more woman is an*h, she's more talkative than Hazuki, Yuki's mind is breathing heavily.
Sakura opened the canteen door, this was the first time Yuki entered the canteen which was no less large than the other rooms. Plenty of chairs and tables neatly lined up, Sakura walked towards the large freezer on the edge of the room. Yuki sees Sakura picking up the checkered ice cubes with a big spoon of Yuki following, she fills her bucket with ice cubes.
"Is this enough?." Tanya Yuki lifted her bucket.
"Yes." Yeah."
"Where are we taking this ice cube?." Ask Yuki.
"In the field, on the bench there is a cooler box (cooler box) to put the players' drinking bottles, so that their drinks continue to cool the box must be filled with ice cubes." Sakura.
Silent.
Yuki is not wanting to talk much, he is reluctant to lure Sakura to open her mouth because of course it will feel long and long.
They had already reached the field, Sakura and Yuki were walking towards the bench inserting their ice cubes into a medium-sized cooler box. Yuki glanced towards the middle of the field, the players were very excited with their training. As usual, the screams of the players continued to earthy, making Yuki a little dizzy.
Yes ampuun .., her crowd exceeds the mothers who again nawar in the market, the inner Yuki.
"Now we help others clean up the equipment room." Take Sakura, Yuki gave a small nod.
And Yuki is trapped in the equipment room with Sakura and Hanami cleaning the room rearranging every single item. Rigidly Yuki imitated what the other two managers were doing, wiping, lifting, styling, sweeping, 4M. Hanami came out to check the field, not long after he came back.
"It looks like they're going to take a break soon, let's go to the field." Sakura immediately put down the batter she was raking to save it back and move out of the equipment room.
If they are resting, why?. Just rest, after all the water bottle has been prepared there, Yuki grumbled in his heart.
"Senpai, come on." Sakura's voice came from outside, Yuki lazily moved from her position towards the two people.
Before going to the field they wash their hands first, a lot of dust and dirty stains that stick. Upon arriving at the field Yuki sees how Kudo practices the theory that the man explained to Yuki in class.
Catcher lures the runner to steal the base and suddenly he throws the ball quickly to the base keeper he is after. Yuki raised one eyebrow, Kudo moves very agile throw is also hard, he can throw from the end of the field (base home) to base two which is 38.8 m away.
Is his arm okay, can I do it too?, Inner Yuki.
"Kudo kun has strong shoulders, he is a catcher who has been in the spotlight since first grade. There are even magazines covering it." Hanami's sudden explanation made Yuki turn to the side.
"Finally came the genius catcher of the century, Kudo Kotaro from high school oukami. That's one of the titles in sports magazine." Hanami.
Hmm .., why did he explain it to me, the genius catcher of the century heh, inner Yuki.
"Your fight yesterday was great, your homerun punch too." Something sprinkled on Yuki's head.
"What was the news of yesterday's game?." Yuki asked, if that happens, her life must be more complicated, Yuki thought.
"No, only the baseball boys know, and we keep this a very good secret."
Thank goodness, inner Yuki.
"Come on." Hanami walked to Yuki's bench and Sakura followed behind.
"When the players rest we give them bottles and towels, we also have to look around if anyone has not got a towel or bottle we immediately give it." Hanami said as she opened the cooler.
My days of being their servant had already begun, the cynical inner Yuki.
"Why don't they take it for themselves." Yuki said flatly, Sakura was surprised next to Yuki.
"It's one of our jobs to help and support the players." Obviously Hanami was a little upset with Yuki.
"Here, please share a towel with them." Said Hanami giving Yuki a pile of towels with a forced smile.
"Se senpai, let me help." Sakura stretched out her hand.
Sretti. A bottle was suddenly in Sakura's hands.
"You distributed drinks to them Sakura." Tell Hanami to give the yellow bottles.
Without saying anything Yuki turned the body around leaving the two managers still busy. Just then the players walked to the sidelines.
Do I have to scream like a merchant on the side of the street in Jakarta, towels .., towels .., towels mas .., mom!, cheap .., inner Yuki then rolled her eyeballs as it suddenly thought strangely like that.
Yuki without opening the sound reached out a towel to every player who passed by him. Those who were surprised by the presence of the new manager looked nervous. Some children pushed each other, telling each other to greet Yuki but they were reluctant to greet the girl, their guts instantly shrieked.
Yuki was still busy giving her a towel then went to give it again and left.
"Echem!." A loud sigh rang out from behind Yuki's body, Yuki turned her head, a wide smile greeting Yuki.
Her smile resembled Jaeha, Yuki's inner being recalled the eleven-year-old orphan boy she already considered a family.
"You want a towel?." Fresh off Yuki, Inuzuka scratched the back of her head with a smile that was still fluffy. Yuki glanced at Inuzuka's hand.
"You should have a drink first." Said Yuki thrusting a white towel in her hand, Inuzuka looked like a sweat bath, her body needing more water than a towel.
"Agh I forgot." Quickly answer.
"Forgot?." Reload Yuki. Inuzuka fluttered, Yuki could not help but smile at Inuzuka's behavior.
"Forgot hm ..?." Ledek Yuki while raising one eyebrow.
"Hehehe ..." Kekeh Inuzuka's.
How dare he approach our goddess!, watch out for the night in the dorm!, unmoved by the players who saw Yuki and Inuzuka's interaction.
The smile of the goddess really weakens me, they continued inwardly.
"Senpai, we'll meet often from today." Inuzuka's chirps followed Yuki from behind.
"Hm." Mumbled Yuki.
"Senpai must be at home on the baseball team." Inuzuka.
"Hm." Hopefully, continued Yuki in his heart, he gave a towel to the last person, he swept his gaze across the field it seems like some players already have a manager who takes care of it. Yuki walked to the bench.
"Senpai, I want to ask you something."
"Hmm, what?." Ask Yuki.
"How can Senpai throw like that?." Yuki turned her back to give Inuzuka a yellow bottle.
"Just throw the ball." Chirps Yuki.
