I'm not ashamed or disappointed or anything by Nationals. Everyone played well, so that's what matters. Che...what's the point of what-ifs, anyway?

Had to talk to Grandma last night. The old battle-axe. She once again told Oyaji how much she rues the day her daughter set eyes on him, then offered to pay for my college, if I'd "just come home ( Read more... )

Nice to know how much you care about your senpai's well-being.

You'd have been just as amused if it had been anyone else, Momo-senpai.

That's besides the point. Point is you should be more caring towards your poor senpai.

'Cause "what-ifs" fall into the same world as dreams and wishes, Koshimae~ They're important to folks~ They make ya wonder 'bout things. Like what new things ya coulda learned 'bout a friend or findin' out what it'd be like to have an old teammate as a rival alla sudden. An' knowin' the answers make people happy~ So that's why people keep chasin' after those what-ifs~

You plannin' on goin' pro and goin' ta college at the same time? That's gonna be a lotta hard work ta try and take care of all at the same time~! ...Or wait. Are ya changin' yer mind 'bout goin' pro? Ehhhhh but you're not allowed ta change yer mind 'bout that, Koshimae!

Still not sure I see the point of it all. I mean, we'll all probably play each other again at some point, 'cause it seems like everyone in the circuit is bad at not playing each other. Just means more fun later, I guess.

I guess I'm making plans for all sorts of things. Like, what if I get hurt and can't go pro right away? Have to do something, right? Plus, it's better to just humor the old woman sometimes. 'Cause now I can go back there and tell her I've honestly thought about it.

...Yeah, we'll all prolly end up playin' each other again at some point, if only in havin' friendly matches for old times' sake. But...we might miss chances to have matches with 'em in a certain way. With Nationals, that was my last chance ta play Kura as a rival. It won't be happenin' ever again. He ain't goin' pro like you and me and any other matches we have from now on will just be as friends, not competin' against each other. So I was happy I was able to reach that goal. 'Cause those are the kinda things that become what-ifs if they don't happen, and ya keep wonderin' what it would've been like. ...Ain't ya ever had that happen to ya before? An' I don't mean just in tennis, just...somethin' where you wished things'd played out in a different way so ya could get the most from it ( ... )
