[The Yanagi Renji route from the CG game Love Restart]
Natsume Maki & Yanagi Renji
///
Natsume: I really didn't practice tennis during spring break.
Yanagi: (Smiles faintly.) Your serve is 13% faster than before spring break, and your explosive power has improved by 16%. That's a lot of progress.
Natsume: !!!
Ever since Hoshino, the club president, borrowed Yanagi from the boys' tennis club next door, Natsume could no longer pretend she hadn't been working hard and secretly practicing with her partner. Hoshino would find out about any special moves she developed right away, too.
Natsume: President, I'm begging you, send him back to the boys' tennis club.
Hoshino: No.
Natsume: Waaah.
You can't hide anything from those data geeks.

Sanada was still scowling on the podium as he accepted the prize for “Most Profitable Club” at the Kaiyou Festival.
Yanagi, however, was smiling happily.
He'd finally found a way to get the ball machine he'd been wanting to buy!
Nearby, Kabaji was dragging Jiro away, even as Jiro tried to find more Rikkai Dai students to collect enough cards of Bunta to get the full set.
Sanada: This is disgraceful! How can you put the regulars on cards and sell them as blind boxes?
Natsume, who'd come up with the idea: (Smiles.) But your boys' club treasurer looks pretty happy.

1. This story and the one next door, The Prophecy Paradox, take place in separate parallel universes and don't affect each other.
2. Possibly OOC, fluffy sweet romance.
3. Rikkai Dai's three-peat and victory in every match are destiny.
Theme: Your worth doesn't need to be decided by others
