Chapter 477: Tominaga's growing restlessness



Even so, it'd be quite difficult to remain asleep amidst the discordant ringing. Hence, he forced himself to wake up.

Sleepwalking, he made his way to the alarm clock.

His eyes were barely open due to which everything around him felt quite fuzzy. But when he was just about to shut the alarm all of a sudden, a feeling of uneasiness washed over him.

After snoozing the alarm, he was planning on heading to bed again. Yet for some reason just as he was about to hit the snooze, his eyes startlingly opened wide.

'I'm already up yet why am I thinking about going back to sleep?'

Dazedly staring at the alarm clock, he questioned.

'I'm making excuses, aren't I?'

It wasn't the only time he had the thought of skipping training. Either from exhaustion or lack of motivation, he had such thoughts in the past.

After all, only a freak would enjoy busting their ass on the training repeatedly.

If even great players aren't immune to such problems then who was he to complain?

'The only way to cope with the problem is to take action'

Right now, a conflict was raging inside him. A part of him wanted to rest while the other part of him was urging him to take action.

It was like two different voices were echoing in his head.

Finally, after a while, he struck the snooze button of the alarm clock and ended its discordant chime. All of a sudden, it got eerily silent around him.

The silence coupled with the conflict inside his head was quite overwhelming.

If he remained any longer in his room, he might give in to the temptation of sleep.

Hence, after hitting the snooze button, he immediately grabbed his bag and stormed out of his room. Having prepared his bag already in advance saved him the effort to pack his bag.

As he stepped out of the mansion a bone-chilling gust of wind struck him. That gust of wind thoroughly awakened him. Until a moment ago, he couldn't stop yawning while making his way to the field.

"Achoo!"

The cold gust that swept through him made him sneeze.

The temperature shift was rather drastic. Until a moment ago, he was inside his room, wrapped under the cozy blanket. But now, he was outside in the freezing cold. The sudden shift in the temperature was a little too overbearing for his body to take.

Glancing at the darkened sky, he murmured, "It's getting quite cold"

Then before proceeding to the pitch, he rubbed some air in his palm to warm him.

Upon reaching the field, he noticed a silhouette of a person moving along the field. Just like yesterday, somebody had already reached the field before him.

But unlike yesterday, he wasn't in the dark. He was aware of the person on the field.

Yet just to be sure, he squinched his eyes against the limited light on the field, trying his hardest to find the identity of the person.

The person on the field was none other than Tominaga.

A moment ago, he was hesitating to wake up, thinking of skipping the training. But now upon seeing someone training so early on the pitch, he couldn't shake the feeling of guilt.

Sure, he could blame his exhaustion for missing the session.

However, who knows if he won't make another excuse?

Do it tired, do it motivated, do it when you don't feel like doing it, do it anyway.

You reap what you sow.

Though seeing Tominaga on the field made him feel slightly guilty he couldn't get caught up in it. After all, it wasn't a battle against anybody.

So what if others train harder than him? So what if others are more earnest than him?

The only one he should be competing against is him from yesterday.

Shaking his head, he tried to shake the feeling of guilt that was gnawing him. As he did that his eyes glistened while his frown unfurled.

Then a subtle crescent blossomed on his face as he said enthusiastically, "Yes, let's start training, shall we?"

Saying so, he got changed and hit the field with the ball.

Tominaga tried his best to ignore Hiro. Yet whenever he looked at him, he kept remembering about the scheme of those bunches from yesterday.

At first, he said to himself that he didn't care whatever happened to him.

But the more he tried to ignore the more it poked him.

Irritated, he growled, "Why is it bothering me so much?"

Even though he had been running tirelessly on the pitch for some reason he couldn't rid of the thought about Hiro from his head.

With each passing moment, he was growing even more restless.

Meanwhile, Hiro was utterly clueless about his growing restlessness. Performing his drills

enthusiastically, he was more flared up than ever.

Finally, Tominaga couldn't take it any further. Hence, he stormed toward Hiro.

If it proceeded any further, it would only affect his training.

'What does he want?'

Seeing Tominaga in front confused him. Just why was he standing in front of him? Was he there to find some trouble with him?

Knowing him, it wouldn't be entirely incorrect to assume so.

Well, if he wanted to find trouble then he was more than ready to take him. Bracing himself,

he took the liberty of asking him first, "You need something?"

Tominaga remained silent, hesitating to speak.

'Is he here to obstruct my training?'

Noticing his silence, he couldn't help but ponder. His silence was growing on him, making

him even more skeptical about his intentions.

'Perhaps he wants to train together but can't ask'

"Do you want to train together?" Hiro asked politely.

Yet still, he remained silent which only made Hiro even more irritated than ever.

'Just what's with him? Is he really planning on obstructing my training? If not why is he not

speaking?'

Tominaga's silence irked him. Yet still, he kept his composure.

But he was running out of patience. If he was simply present there to waste his time then he

didn't wish to get involved with him any further.

"You need... to be careful" he blurted abruptly and stormed away.
