Chapter 318 Reaching Kawasaki
Brr! brr!
Just as Hiro exited the bus, he felt a faint vibrating sensation. And as he halted his movement, he heard his phone ringing. Feeling the vibration of his phone, he then reached out his hands to his pocket while telling Shun who seemed exhilarated at this moment to head ahead without him, "I'll take this call, you head ahead"
But his words fell on his deaf ear as right now he was so ecstatic that it seemed like he wasn't even waiting for him in the first place. Probably he wanted to meet his club teammates to brag about the achievement he had made in this arduous journey.
Upon seeing Shun's goofy behavior and unresponsiveness, Hiro felt quite stupid as his mouth twitched uncontrollably.
He then turned his attention towards his phone.
"Oh it's moms call"
Immediately his face lightened up as a sweet smile bloomed on his face.
After reaching his dormitory, he had been planning on calling his parents. But luckily they reached out to him first. It's not that during his stay at China, he didn't keep in touch with his parents. In fact he had called them often even during his stay at China.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever there was one instance when he hadn't contacted them. It was right after he had got injured in the final match. To deliberately hide his injuries he had intentionally not called them that day in pretense of being busy celebrating their victory. But who knew that his ingenuity would backfire instead.
Some times he can be so dumb. Just how did he even forgot that the match was broadcasted live. Overlooking that simple fact got him into even more trouble as later when he contacted them after getting discharged from the hospital, he got scolded very badly on the phone.
The scolding was so brutal that most of his teammates who were present with him at the moment quietly left the room; trying to save themselves from getting on the bad side of his mother.
If not for his father's efforts, she might have even flown to China out of her worries.
Picking up the phone, he answered in a docile tone, "Hello mom, I was just about to call you after reaching the dormitory."
Sounding somewhat grumpy, she replied from the other side of the phone, "Who knows if you would have forgotten like the last time"
Even after making countless apologies, she was still upset about him not calling her the last time after collapsing in the final match. And Hiro could vividly feel the grudge she was holding against him for that matter.
However he wasn't surprised by the tone of her voice and the matter of her speech, he knew his mother well enough. And thus, he had already predicted this situation beforehand.
Yet when facing this situation, he couldn't deny that it felt somewhat uncomfortable. Sighing inwardly he pondered, 'I wonder how long will I have to face her wrath this time'
Nevertheless he didn't mind her attitude. He knew that she was simply being worried about his wellbeing.
While trying to change her mood, he then tried to change the topic of the conversation by detailing her about the welcome they had received after landing, "Mom do you know there were so many fans present in the airport to greet us a moment ago. And there was also this kid who was a huge fan of mine"
Listening to his cheerful briefing, she relaxed her tone as she felt quite happy that her son was enjoying the moment. Right now, while he continued with his explanation of the moment he had experienced, she could vividly feel his happiness.
And what more would matter to a parent than the happiness of their child?
She had just called him to ask about his wellbeing and to inquire whether he had reached the dormitory or not. But listening to his explanation filled with elation, she couldn't help herself from smiling.
His stories were just too interesting and his happiness right now was worth more than anything else in the world to her. So while he went on with his explanation, she patiently listened to his briefing with a sweet smile on her face.
She even forgot that she was upset with Hiro regarding the previous matter.
Soon though as he continued conversing with her, forgetting any sense of time, his coaches and teammates walked out the gate, wearing a worried look on their faces.
While Shunhad already arrived, it had been quite a while. Yet Hiro was nowhere to be seen. Thus out of worry that something might have happened to him, they all rushed out of the gate to check on him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut the moment they stepped out, they found him glued to his phone, cheerfully conversing with big wide smile on his face.
At first upon seeing him completely fine, they were relieved but soon they started feeling a bit angry at him for making them worry unnecessarily.
Only after seeing their somewhat furious faces, did Hiro came to a realization that he had talking for way too long on the phone. Looking at the phone, he found that he had been talking with his mother for like 14 minutes already.
Immediately he then tried to bid his mother goodbye as he tried hang up the call, "Mom, I gotta go now. My friend and coaches are waiting for me"
"Okay. Rest well and take care of yourself. And also eat a lot so that you won't collapse from next time onwards. Also be warned that if you get injured again, I'll be coming to you. And boy do I warn you that you wouldn't want that to happen"
Hearing her threats, a cold sweat ran down his face.
But even so, he immediately responded as he tried to reassure her that he would take good care of himself, "Don't worry mom, I'll take care of myself. You too take care of yourself and dad. So, bye mom"
Bidding his farewell, he cut the call as he turned to face his furious teammates and coaches.
'Am I getting scolded again?'
Hiro gulped his saliva as he noticed their fiery face which was spewing fire at the moment.
