Be happy with sports 230 Last National High School Championship 8

"Son, you didn't tell me yesterday that you would come here today."

"I decided today to get some rest from training today and I came to see Anna and everyone at the restaurant."

"Glad you learned how to rest, I remember a few years ago when I found that you, besides training so much at school, still wore those weight machines at home, I got so pissed."

"If I found out that you hurt yourself from training so much I would forbid you to do that again, but it looks like you have a strong body and luckily it never hurt."

Hearing this Jake sweated cold with fear, he knew it was a good idea to hide from his mother who had been injured after the marathon, luckily she had not seen on television, otherwise Jake would have problems.

Jake remembered how mad Eva got when she found out he was doing bodybuilding even though he was so young, but he managed to convince her that it wasn't dangerous for him, Jake thought it over and knew that he relied heavily on the system risking getting hurt when it was new doing this.

Fortunately now he realized that it was good to give his body a rest, but he did not regret having trained so much when younger, only because of that he saved many years and now could be stronger than others his age.

"So you're really going to watch the final game, aren't you, Mom."

"Of course I will, I promised I would, after all, I will also take Lola with me, after all, she supported you in several games this year, it's only fair that she can see the final too."

"I agree with that, she's been working very well lately, besides, Julius sees working a lot in the last few months at the restaurant and can almost never take time off, he would be happy if his daughter could at least come out in his place."

"In the next menus we have to get some dinner prescriptions that depend on Julius, so he will be able to rest more, Jake, enjoy that you came here today to the restaurant and try some of our new dishes."

"I came here for that mom."

"I'm sorry I can't go to your game this time too Jake, I have to work here and it's better if your mom goes, instead of me we can't close the restaurant."

"I know Anna, thanks for everything you've been doing for my mom in the restaurant if it worked out it was mostly because of you."

"No need to say that Jake, I really enjoy working here too and I'm very happy to go back to a kitchen again in a restaurant after so many years, and as you said when you invited me to work here, I consider you and Eva part of my family."

After that, Jake ate several dishes from the new menu and gave his professional opinion and as a customer, Anna knew that Jake knew a lot about cooking too and accepted Jake's advice to change some details on the menu.

After all, even though Anna was an experienced professional and had experience running a restaurant by herself for many years, the restaurant she ran had a very different menu from Eva's current restaurant menu that had dishes from various countries, yet she wasn't completely confident in making a perfect menu.

After spending time at the restaurant Jake went to Mark's house, Mark lived in a simple Miami home because he was actually from another city in another state and came here only to enter Elite school because of his sports bag that He managed to play basketball.

This house wasn't even theirs at first, it was a rented house that was bought just a few years ago by Mark's family when Mark's father got a job in Miami, Mark was an only child and his father didn't hesitate to sell the house in the other city ​​and the whole family moving to Miami for the sake of Mark's future.

That's why Mark's mother didn't like basketball, she thought it wasted her son's time she could enjoy studying for a better future, Mark's father didn't think so and he knew basketball was what gave him the chance Mark a scholarship at a good school and now a scholarship at a good university.

Luckily when Jake came to visit Mark, Mark's mother had left, after all even though Jake knew she had reason to dislike basketball didn't mean he accepted being despised because of it.

"Hi Jake, thanks for coming to see me at home today, I know you must be very busy training for the final."

"You're my friend, of course, I would come, the most important thing now is for you to improve so you can play at university after a few months."

"I feel bad for hurting myself in the middle of a big game, if you lost, I'd feel guilty forever."

"Don't say that it wasn't your fault getting injured in the game, something that happens even to the pros, we wouldn't blame you if we ended up losing the game."

"Even if you say that I know it was my fault, I was very excited about the game and in every move I just thought of doing dunks or other risky moves, so I got hurt by trying a lot of reckless moves, I thought you guys they were mad at me and so they didn't come to visit me after I got hurt. "

"We went to the hospital as soon as the game was over, but as we didn't want to bother you I just told your mom we sent you some improvements and we left."

Jake realized that it had been all Mark's mother's frame, she didn't say that Jake and the others on the team came to visit because she should want Mark to give up basketball, but even knowing that he didn't get angry and just calmly explained what happened.

Of course, Mark was not naive and realized what Jake was implying and realized that his mother had lied to him, after all, he knew his own mother well and knew she would be able to do that.

Normally he would have suspected she was lying when he said no one had come to visit him, but after getting hurt he was weak and was also feeling guilty about the team, so he eventually believed in his mother.

Jake and the others didn't come to visit Mark again because they knew the injury was not serious and that if Mark wanted he could just go to school and talk to them, Jake decided to come thinking that maybe something serious had happened, luckily he came without Mark's mother was at home, so the misunderstanding was dispelled.

So Jake decided that he would talk to Mark for a while and then leave before Mark's mother arrived to avoid an unpleasant situation, the two decided to avoid talking about the misunderstanding and continued talking.

"How is the team doing without me? Do you think we can win in the final?"

"Without you, on the team, we have no confidence to win, it will be a tough game and we will have to try different things to try to surprise the opponent and try to capitalize on the team's strengths in the final game."Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.

Mark did not feel good to know that without him the team was bad, he would rather just be a reserve and win than the main star in an injured situation, luckily Jake was still on the team, Mark was the one who trusted Jake the most and I knew that after entering high school Jake never played as much as he could.

"How is it going to be? Will Carter play in my makeshift position in the final?"

"No, we have decided to surprise our opponents in this game and we will have no one in Center's position in the attack, and David will take his place in the final."

Mark was surprised by that, Coach Mike was really bold deciding to play without someone in Center's position in the final, of course, Mark knew the team well and knew that Coach Mike had no one to play for Center in that game, not even Carter could do well and would only play worse in that position.

"But how are you going to do in defense? Without a Center on our team to defend the opposing Center will play quietly, I don't think David can help that much, everyone in the final is great players."

"I will play in Center's position in defense, David will defend against the worst opponent if we play well the opponent could have to make changes to not lose the game."

Mark was very surprised to learn that Jake would play in his defensive position, but after some thought he saw that it was really the best, Mark knew that what the Elite team thought was important was not necessary to defend against the opposing Center but to catch the rebounds.

Mark knew better than anyone that Jake was much better than him in catching rebounds, he was now eager to watch this game of the final to know what kind of game Jake would do, something would tell him that this game would be so amazing that he He would be lucky to get hurt so he could see that.

Thinking back he could never guess that one day Jake could end up playing even in his position even if it was just the defense, Mark remembered that Jake asked to learn how to play in Center position, after some time Mark realized that Jake could be better than him in that position and stopped teaching Jake.

Mark was impressed with Jake's prediction, had it not been for him to learn how to play Center at that time this final game could have been much less likely to be won, of course, Mark couldn't imagine that Jake had learned everything from him and played hundreds of times in this position in your imagination training space.

After talking to Mark a little more, Jake left before Mark's mother came home, so he was glad he had avoided an unpleasant situation, it was funny that Mark's mother who was his best friend on the basketball team was the only one who didn't like Jake.

All the other moms and dads of his teammates liked Jake a lot and admired him a lot, especially after Jake taught his kids a lot at school and raised everyone on the team.
