Chương 678: Reunion (2)

***

Around 2 hours later, Ken and Ai left Koshien stadium after watching the match between Koryo and Osaka. 

"I didn't expect the match to be that one-sided." Ai admitted, her expression a little odd.

Ken nodded, "I knew they had a good batting lineup, but Kouichi has really improved lately. I wouldn't be surprised if he was taken in the draft later this year…" 

"Kouichi… Why does that name sound familiar?"

"He was the starting pitcher for our team at Seiko Middle." Ken clarified.

"Ah okay. Sorry, I didn't really pay attention to anyone else on the team back then." Ai admitted, however she froze in the next moment.

"Oho? So you only had eyes for me even back in middle school?" Ken said, his face turning up into a teasing grin.

Ai's face heated up in embarrassment, "Idiot…" she muttered, hiding her flushed face.

Ken felt rather invigorated. "Well, I can't say that I wasn't looking at you back then also…"
