The national volleyball championship. It seemed to be over in a blink of the eye. One day they were facing off against teams in their own prefecture, next they had made it to nationals only for it to end. It ended too quickly, everyone seemed to agree on that. They had all wanted the moment to last forever, the moment where they could stand on the court and play volleyball together. The opposing team didn’t matter, as long as they had their own team, they would fly, fly towards greater heights. And continue soaring towards the top, which at one point had seemed so far away that they were unable to see it. But somehow, they had lifted their feet off the ground and their wings had grown, they weren’t just baby crows anymore. They were maturing, aging, getting bigger, getting stronger.
And yet, they couldn’t believe that it was time for the elders to move on. Or rather, they didn’t want it to be true. It was a time they knew was coming and yet had attempted to push away all thoughts and reminders of the senpais leaving. Now that it was over, they had to face the reality. The reality of having to say farewell to the third years.
The exam period passed in a blur. The usual energy at practice was lacking, now that the three third years were missing. Four, including Kiyoko who was just as busy with exams and preparing to go to college as the rest of them were. Despite the fact that the new captain and the coach were both trying there best to keep everyone’s spirits up, it just simply wasn’t working. The gym felt empty, and although they would do anything to get the third years back, they started looking forward to getting some new first years in. Some first years that were unknown to the old third years and had plenty of energy to start afresh at their first year at high school.
Graduation came quicker than anyone expected it to, and suddenly it was time to say goodbye to the third years. Not just a goodbye from the volleyball team, but a goodbye from the school. Even if they had seen the third years in the hallways or outside the past few weeks, that point was now over. As per tradition, a graduation ceremony was held for the third years and everyone in the audience clapped politely. Some were happy to be moving on, others were upset about leaving their kouhais behind. Some had tears threatening to burst out at any moment. It was a rather emotional ceremony, one that moved everyone.
After the ceremony was over, the volleyball team gathered in the gym. They were all wearing their black school uniforms with the Karasuno logo on it. There was idle chatter between the members of the volleyball club, but the air around them was heavy.
“I-I can’t believe we’re leaving this place,” Sugawara was looking around the gym, absorbing it and all the memories he had created here.
“I’m... g-going to m-miss you a-all,” Asahi was the first one unable to hold the tears back as spoke.
But as Asahi broke into tears, some of the others soon followed. Both Tanaka and Nishinoya were unable to hold their emotions back. All of the first years aside from Tsukishima were on the edge of tears too.
“We, we, we’ll miss you too!” Hinata sobbed. “Thank you for everything!”
“Hey, now,” Daichi, who was standing closest to Hinata out of the three third years, rubbed the kouhai’s back gently. “It’s not as if we’ll be gone forever. We’ll come back and visit you during practice. Isn’t that right?” Daichi looked over at Asahi and Sugawara, receiving a nod from both of them. Asahi was crying too much to give a reply, and even Sugawara was struggling to keep the tears back.
“P-Promise me!” Hinata bowed in front of his graduating senapais. “Promise me you’ll come back and visit! Don’t forget us!”
“We promise,” Daichi was the spokesman for the third years. “We’ll be back to visit before you know it.”
They said their final goodbyes to each other before watching as the third years took one last look around the gym, the place they had spent so much time in over the past three years, before turning and leaving through the door without looking back. The group left in the gym, now only consisting of the first and second years, were all unsure of how to react. Aside from the tears running down almost everyone’s cheeks, no one knew what to say to comfort each other or to cheer each other up.
When it was only the three third year students together walking away from the school, it was only then that Daichi broke down along with the other two. The three held each other in a group hug, crying as they stood in the middle of an empty street, clinging onto the other two and not wanting to let go, in fear of losing everything.
“We’ll keep in touch, right?” Asahi choked through tears.
“Of course we will,” Sugawara attempted to assure him, though it was difficult through his own crying mess.
“I wouldn’t let you go without keeping touch,” Daichi chimed in. “Thank you for three amazing years. I don’t know how I would’ve managed without you two. We can’t stay here forever. Let’s head home now, shall we?”
