play all the games.”
He was old enough, professional volleyball was the career he chose but his mom insisted on a proper college degree just in case.
“I’m being called the best setter of the generation, I can’t let that go. That’s like so cool.”
He groaned at the little lecture on studying, taking the cup of tea and sliding it closer to himself.
“I knoooow. Mama tells me that all the time. Said she doesn’t even know why I stuck with volleyball anyway. But I’m doing good and I’m doing my courses online so I can still —
⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀"If Tou-chan scolds you that means you are totally wrong." Murmured softly. Can't tell if he's being serious or just playing with him. One thing is for sure, he walks toward the kitchen and makes two cups of tea; one for himself of course. It doesn't need to (c)
He shrugged.
“I don’t wanna bother mama and bachan, jichan has been scolding me for working too hard so if I come to him cause I’m sick he’ll just lecture me again.”
Takeru was the product of a single mother, so he relied just as heavily on the women in the family as his uncle—
⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀"Don't be a freak. If you're still sick, you can't do anything." He needs a mirror. As if the younger him is much better.
⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀"If nee-chan busy you can ask kaa-chan, you know?"
⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀"Or your dad, my father." Just realized he's too dependent on (c)
He peeled himself away, sitting down on the nearest chair he had to drag over.
“I hate being sick, means I can’t play volleyball how I want. Coach tells me to take a break but that’s no fun..”
⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀Snorts loudly. Which one should he deny, his self-confidence or that nickname.
⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀"Ck, sure sure. Can you sit down first?" And he giving a little push. After all he couldn't dare to hurt him; pampering like a typical uncle.
He sniffled before covering his face with his shirt to sneeze, groaning after.
“Good thing I’m super smart…but also totally sucks. Can you make me some tea, Uncle Toto?”
He only pulled out the childish nickname when he really wanted something from his uncle.
⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀"I mean stupid people can't get sick." Wondering where he gets that confidence. But he's an Oikawa afterall.
⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀"Or you want me indulge you? Beg." But he doesn't mind when the younger one leans his forehead against him.
“I’m too good looking to be sick! This is such a tragedy!”
groans, leaning his forehead against his uncle’s shoulder.
“Mama is working, I shouldn’t bother her.”
