LES's face lit up when he saw the man he was going to meet. He met its gaze. It was Charlinton Del Pierro, his nemesis. He no longer knew when, how, where, or why they became enemies. Just, it was the only thorn in his throat.

When they confronted each other, Charlie suddenly grinned as if embarrassed.

"Better take care of your things, Crawford. You'll never know when someone will take it away from you," he said sarcastically.

"Fuck off, Del Pierro," was his muffled reply.

Charlie's grin just widened then continued to walk. Les looked straight ahead. Out of the corner of his eyes he noticed a familiar figure. He was about to look back when someone called to him.

"Les, sweetie," said Heidi. Closer and closer it clung to his arm. "Let's date later, huh?"

"Sorry, Heidi. We have a practice."

It frowned and immediately released its grip on him. Heidi nodded then raised an eyebrow at him. "Oh, really?"

"Yeah. Sorry, Heidi. I'll be back next time."

"Whatever. See if I care."

Les stared at the tantrums girlfriend. He stroked her hair and then looked up. Women.

Airin observed what was happening inside SVU. The many whispers, the ones that are no longer in the normal way.

"Gino, what's happening?" she stopped the man she met.

"Ah. The other girls are just happy. Les broke up with Heidi," Gino replied.

"Ah. It's just that — what?" Airin's eyes widened. "Wait, did I hear right ?! Les and Heidi are breaking up?"

"Yeah. All right, bye, Airin."

Airin was left speechless. He even asked some acquaintances and Gino's news was right! Les and Heidi are breaking up! She couldn't quite imagine that what she had told Skye before would come true. Maybe luck was really on her side, huh.

It's so widespread on Campus that Heidi broke up with Les because Les is losing time with his girlfriend (ex-girlfriend, FYI). Heidi said that this was the result, a break-up. Yes!

It was as if Airin was walking on a cloud while going to the library. Nothing can erase her good day.

"Gail, have you heard the news? The super, duper good news? Brea—"

"Heidi broke the flirt and Les your loves? Yes, I know. It's so prevalent all over campus. It's shaking," said Gail who was still focused on the book she was holding.

Airin sat down in the empty chair next to Gail and then laid the things on the table. "My gahd . This is it, Gail! I guess I should make a move for Les to notice me."

"All right. I'm just here to support you in your mania," was its lifeless reply.

"You know, you're both Skye's KJ, eh. You two really should be together," Airin frowned but later smiled when he remembered the good news. His good vibes can't really be erased. "They're breaking up, they're breaking up. So happy, me," he sang.

"It's not obvious that you're happy, Airin. But take it easy, girl. Maybe later, you'll get hurt. I don't want to see you hurting. Maybe I can't estimate that Alessandro. Oh!"

Laughing he hugged his friend. "Bestie is really smart, oh. That's why Mico loves you so much, eh," he teased.

Gail blushed and to Airin's surprise she suddenly stood up. Its chair has almost fallen off. He dropped the book he was holding on the table. "I just went to the restroom," he said.

Airin shook her eyebrow as she looked at Gail's receding figure. It's like he's just joking, ah? Is something strange happening here and with her new found friend Mico?

Gail is his other friend besides Skye. The three of them used to be classmates. Gail and I were left in Accountancy because Skye had already shifted.

Anyway, then he will think about Gail's "love life". Of course he would put himself first. He had to first think of a way how he could get close to Les. Of course it should be in a subtle way. He doesn't want to look as cheap as some who like Les who do nothing but be cute and pay attention to the man.

Though she admired those girls tenacity.

So Airin must think of a way that will serve as a bridge for him and Les to get closer in a demure way . To teach her to love him. Oh, isn't it?

"I CAN'T believe it, Cloud. This was the first time I've been dumped by a girl!" Les squealed then shivered as he swallowed the bottle of softdrink he was holding. They are still in the vicinity of SVU so alcohol is not allowed, so he tolerates soft drinks first. But in reality, he prefers to drown in alcohol first because of what happened to them with Heidi, his latest girlfriend — or should he say, his latest ex -girlfriend.

Les stroked her hair violently. He was not hurt in the break-up. What hurt him was his pride. Les is not a proud person. It's just that Heidi eased her pride with her breakup.

"That's okay, pare, it's better for a man to dump you," Cloud teased him with a smile.

They just finished their practice game. The two of them and Cloud fought. They are like this even though Doubles game is their forte. They do not limit Doubles game play. They are also trying out the Singles game.

The two of them are here in the locker room and spending time. They are just waiting for the arrival of their other friends.

"Shut up. This isn't the time for you to annoy me," Les growled at the friend. He threw the can he was holding at her, which she quickly avoided.

"Don't even think about Heidi, Les. It's good that you broke up. Then there are many other women out there," he said. Cloud lowered his head as he raised an eyebrow. "Why did Heidi break up with you?"

Les sighed as he remembered the reason for Heidi's breakup. He also can't blame Heidi for breaking up with him. He was at fault here. He lost time with Heidi. Tennis consumes his time and he spends the rest of his time studying, especially since he is graduating. So what happens, he doesn’t accompany Heidi on its walks. They could not go out on a date. They don't even celebrate the monthsary!

"She's tired of me. I don't have time for her anymore. You're the only one with me," Les joked.

"Ha? It's really your girlfriend, she also has a splint on her head, eh."

"Ex," he corrected.

"X, Y, Z, same letters." Cloud waved his hand. "But you're also wrong, Les. If you can't keep up, you should just choose. But he should also understand you. Why, it's hard to be a member of a tennis club especially since Enzo is the captain. It's a good thing I don't have a hanger. I told you, eh. Women really have a headache. "

Les raised the coke in the can and then scolded Cloud. "You're right. It's really just a headache and pride that women bring."

They both highfive. "Because you should have just flirted with me, eh," he suddenly teased.

"Stupid. I can't type you. I'd rather type Coach Enzo," Les said with a smile. He was shaken slightly by Cloud's antics.

"Are you saying something, Alessandro?"

Les and Cloud immediately stood up when they heard Enzo's serious voice. They were a bit scared of five percent of the man because it was hard to spell his mood. It's hard and they might suddenly be engulfed in fire especially since it's not in a good mood right now.

Enzo is still strong on the trip, it's not just because it's serious.

"Ha? Me? Something to say? Nothing, ah!" Les refused and was even accompanied by a shake.

"Thank you for failing today because otherwise, I would have turned you twenty laps on the court earlier," Enzo said seriously.

"Thank God," he said weakly and fell to the floor again.

"Why is your head so hot again, Enzo?" Cloud groaned sitting across from him.

Enzo was shaken before sitting in the Monobloc chair. "The noise of the women outside, tilian tilian. Guji will not be able to practice sensibly."

Les just nodded. Of the nine of them, Guji is the one who is reluctant to be approached by women. If it were possible, it would have expelled all the women here at SVU. He is not a woman-hater, he just really doesn't want to be approached or touched by women. So in short, woman-hater Guji.

"Should Coach, you're sending Reus there."

"Reus seems to be doing something."

"Coach agrees, eh. Guji might not be able to practice well because Reus isn't here. You know those two are very close."

"Yeah, right."

Les and Cloud laughed at the same time. He knew that Enzo did not believe what he said. Because the truth is, Guji and Reus aren't really close. The opposite is true. When those two come together, expect a fight, an answer, and a mess. Those two always clash. Sometimes, it's just a simple topic but it causes the two to quarrel.

“Guji and Rein are done practicing,” said newcomer Chase, the true tensai or genius not only when it comes to tennis but also in just about anything. This is the man who knows a lot.

"Softdrinks, Chase," Les offered holding the coke-in-can.

It just smiled and shook. "Kei gave me his freshly made juice. It was good."

He almost let go of the coke-in-can he was holding because of what Chase said. He didn’t really know if he would feel sorry for his tastebuds Chase. Why, even if you give him five thousand, he will never drink Kei's homemade juice. Even tasting he would never do.

Still stored in Les' memory bank is what happened once he tasted the juice made by Kei. He even lost consciousness due to the very bad taste of its juice. Fortunately, no one else saw him except his friends, who, to his knowledge, also fainted from tasting Kei's juice. And as he got older, Coach Enzo and Kei were the only ones who didn’t drink the deadly juice of late. Mauutak.

"Good? You really taste good Chase," he muttered in disbelief in Cloud's voice as he said that.

"Kei's juices are really delicious. Just don't think too much about the look and the color. Right, Coach?"

Enzo shrugged before answering. "I don't know. I haven't tasted it."

"Really Enzo? You haven't tasted Kei's juice yet?"

"Yeah."

"I dare you Enzo, drink that bottle of Kei's juice!"

"No, thanks."

Les and Cloud laughed highfive while Chase just smiled. Even though their coach is terror, he is also afraid of Kei's juice.

Enzo stood up and shook his shorts. "I'm going to change. Where are we later, Les?"

"What are we going to do later?"

"You're disappointed, aren't you? Where are we going to party?"

"Thank you and we'll coach you, Enzo, because if you don't ..."

"Oh, why don't you continue?"

"I'm just scared of you," he whispered then turned to Cloud. "Enzo is terrified again."

"You said more. Just thank me and you're disappointed."

"I'm not that disappointed!"

"Yeah, right."

"Get dressed, Les. Let's go straight to the party," Chase whispered before leaving the locker room.

He just scratched his head and shook. "I'm not really disappointed!"

"Don't get up early, Les. The frustrated, still frustrated even if you hide it," Enzo said.

Les was dumbfounded, even Cloud, not because of what Enzo said. They were stunned because for the first time, they saw their coach's stoic face smiling.

I think the world will be destroyed.
