semifinals. preparing for the nationals became a grueling ordeal for mayu, akin to navigating a challenging labyrinth before the ultimate tournament day.
she mirrored her brother's unyielding work ethic, especially in the realm of volleyball. unlike tooru, who meticulously studied each opposing player, mayu propelled herself with an internal drive to excel.
her dedication was palpable—often found staying late for extra practice, persuading teammates to join her sessions, all while shouldering the responsibilities of team captaincy.
despite her relentless drive, she ensured her team received adequate rest before crucial game days.
as the aoba johsai women's volleyball team arrived at the sendai gymnasium, mayu donned her headphones, strolling in with an air of determination, her hands tucked within the pockets of her tracksuit.
her deliberate intimidating aura turned heads, a facade she consciously crafted to project strength and unnerve opponents.
kimi, the setter, saw through this facade, "stop that, mayu, you look ridiculous." she chided gently, aware of mayu's pretense.
mayu, caught off guard, glanced sideways at the setter before relenting, "sorry, i was just trying to seem cool." she admitted sheepishly. kimi knew her friend as she was aware of mayu's usual bubbly and radiant nature within the team.
