On the Finals Court with the Childhood Friend Who Became My Rival
The last summer of high school badminton. Waiting on the opposite side of the tournament bracket was my childhood friend Kasumi Hayakawa, who had transferred to a powerhouse school.
When we happened to meet again behind the gymnasium, she regripped her racket and smiled fearlessly. "Make it to the finals. I'm never going easy on you."
The partner who once had my back is now my greatest rival. The real reason she transferred, and the feelings she could never put into words, collide across the net in this blazing youth sports romance.
