...Chapters 21...
...Kaede's cheers are the best in Japan...
“Running, run! Keep running until you fall!”
“You can chase that ball, right!? Why did you give up, Yoshizumi!”
“Higure, too, a snowy kid is better off exploding aja son of a bitch!”
After school is over. For some reason, today's football club training session feels more enthusiastic. Today we practiced the match between the red team against the white team that rarely do— by the way I was in the red team—but want that teammate or my enemy, treat me very badly. Who said that last sentence? At least that personal grudge should be hidden.
“Ha... ha... shit! The seniors are too excited.”
While touching the goalpost, I managed my chaotic breathing. What the fuck with the pass just now, I understand that we have to counter-attack, but why the bait has to be from the DF position. The ball is too fast and the accuracy is too low, the quality is reduced significantly. There was no way I could catch up to him, thanks to that, I was wasting my energy.
“Yes, the cause for this is for sure.. Why did you even see me, Kaede-san?”.
Thas right. The source of the smoldering spirit of the seniors was caused by the person who was looking out the window towards the field with a smile, Kaede-san. Aah, our eyes meet. Woi, don't wave your hand at me. I'm a little happy anyway, but the eyes of the seniors who saw that are really scary.
“Yuya-kun, spirit!”
Hey, can you stop!? If I am personally encouraged, you are pouring oil on the burning spirit of the senpai who are not personally encouraged. It will make me get treated harder.
“It seems difficult yes to be loved by the most cute girl in Japan, Yuya.”
“Bacot lu njing. Anyway, I told you that we haven't dated.”
“So it's still not yes, that means someday it will happen, right? You're stubborn in a strange way Yuya. You should be more honest.”
When I returned to my own team territory, Shinji, a fellow in the same red team, called out to me cheerfully. No, that's not the case, why are you even here, what about defense? Even though it's not my right to say it.
“It's okay. The seniors are excited to show good results to Hitotsuba-san, so they will be able to survive even without me or you.”
“It would be the same for the attacking white team. Gosh, if only they were motivated like this, we could win the city tournament, right?”
Our football team is not very motivated at the moment. But it's not because the individual skills are low, so if we have an amazing passer like Shinji, even me, a regular striker, can score goals. After that, if the defense is mature, we will have a chance to win.
“Hahaha. You're kidding, right. If Kaede-san becomes the manager, I won't be able to be relieved. Instead of that, let's end this useless talk here and score a few goals.” Answer me.
I pointed my hand at my comrade while I arranged my poniku, which was damp and sweaty from running around even though it was winter. Shinji clenched his fists after sighing.
“You're right, let's show Hitotsuba-san the cool part of Yuya here. Leave it to me to make you look cool, striker.”
“Haa. I'm not trying to appear cool to Kaede-san who has supported me so hard since a while ago! I just want to win the match between the red team and the white team!”
“Ya, yes. You're the tsundere is also cute, Yuya.”
Shinji started running while laughing. Hey, what does that mean! There's no way I'm a tsundere!
“Yuya-kun!! Spirit!”
Don't cheer from the window. And why are you cheering me on today? Until now, you just watched silently so as not to be noticed.
“But... I don't feel bad to cheer up.”.
Notes: Tsundere base 😒
It is said that being cheered on can sometimes make one exert more power than one can. In that case, today I will do everything I can while listening to Kaede-san's voice!
After that, I scored after receiving a beautiful pass from Shinji, and the red team finally won the game 3-0. I'm the one who scored all the goals and got the hat trick, but the seniors don't praise me, but rather look at me with jealousy. Sinting is what these are.
“Kyaaaaaaa, Yuya-kun is so cool!!!”
So yeah. Maybe it was because of Kaede-san that I got more excited. Instead of Kaede-san, isn't your character collapsing? Why is your spirit so high? Shouldn't you be watching me practice quietly?
“You are very loved yes, Yuya”
“Silence, Shin-kun.”
This time, the smile on Shinji's face, who was one of those lovers who had been kidnapped by a foolish lover, irritated me.
