The lockdown had been in effect for only two weeks so far. Not that it bothered Hanamaki.
He was in between jobs anyway so this was just a longer than planned vacation. He has spent the last two weeks ordering junk food, playing video games and calling his best friends

Everyone online was saying that this would be over in about a month or two so he didn’t see any reason to worry. He didn’t even restock his mask supplies yet. Thinking he could just stay inside for the short time.
Oikawa had come by to visit a few times the first week.

But he won’t be making the trip to Tokyo for a bit now. His parents getting more worried as reports of cases going up. So the setter and job hopped spent most of their time texting and playing online.
“What did your coach say?” Asked Iwa on a video call late at night.

Oikawa’s normally bouncy and styled hair was flat from his shower. Only his family and three closest friends have ever seen him like this. Since he was so concerned about his fans’ opinions.
“He said to stay in shape for now while we keep an eye on things” the brunette shrugged

Loud crunching could be heard from Makki’s side of the call. Big bag of some kind of crunchy snack took up most of his screen.
“Hiro you’re gonna get fat” snarked Mattsun with a tired grin.

Even though most hospitals were not releasing the remains of patients due to Covid, families were still wanting to make arrangement to be ready for when that time finally came.
It was horribly dealing with so much grief constantly throughout his day. Leaving a constant weight.

These phone calls were Mattsun’s escape from the grim reaper. He made sure to limit talking about his own day during these peaceful moments, not wanting to drag his friends into the darkness with him.
“Covid 10” cheered Makki as he popped another salty treat into his mouth.

“Do you guys want to come over this weekend?” Asked Oikawa as he smiled at someone out of screen.
“You know it’s a lockdown right?” Iwa replied though already knowing he would be there.
The pro athletes screen shifted as it was turned around. Now showing young Takeru.

The little boy they had all known in high school had gotten a lot taller, almost to Iwa’s height. His birthday still cropped short but he was definitely and Oikawa.
“Hey Take!” Yelled Makki at first year high school student.
A bright blush grew in the teen’s cheeks.

Like the perfect uncle he is Oikawa said, “Takeru has something he wants to ask you guys.”

With a determined look much like the one the other three men had seen a lot through the years on their most annoying friend, “would you all play volleyball with me?” followed by a bow.
A chorus of laughter promptly screeched through the laptops speakers.

“Take why are you so serious?” Laughed Issei once he was able to contain his amusement.
The boy glared at his uncle who was now rolling on the floor, wiping tears from his eyes.
“We’ll be there Takeru” Iwa said before the nephew and uncle could start squabbling.
