Chapter 11: 11
( watching a practice game between two high school teams )
( afternoon)
back home ..
( collision..)
out..
( oh.. that catcher is good . he didn't cower in fear when the runner's spike was going to hit him . but maneuvered his body , dodged and even tagged that runner out . hmm.. not only him but there are 5 others with great potential . sigh .. what a waste , there is no one else me who realizes their worth . forget it , it's none of my business.. )
Ken- ( shout ) good job catcher ..
( hmm.. but baseball is always fun to watch . and I cant help but cheer whenever I like some play... )
catcher - thank you .. oh ? Ken senshu ( stuttering ) ..
( oye oye .. that was unnecessary information catcher kun .. sigh see now everybody is coming here to pester me for autographs ..)
( after a while )
Ken- now that's the last one . okay now continue the game .. yes and please dont leave the game next time unfinished for some autographs okay ..( smile )
( inside nearby park)
( in this world , baseball is way popular than the earth. welll it feels good when so many fans cheer for you and ask for autographs but seriously it feels annoying sometimes . now what to do ? hmm.. that practice game was good but I had to leave after causing a disturbance .. well that coach was glaring at me so I had no choice though ..
misa chan will be home after 2 more hours so if I dont obey her orders , she will get mad . I don't want to make her angry but what can I do ? it's not like my club will sign a contract with me immediately if I go there myself . there must be reasons , the announcement is late . well most possible one is that they haven't finalized my starting annual salary right now . well it's their job and it will increase with my performance in season games anyway so I'm not worried at all .
misa chan really cares about these money matters that's why she is pestering me . well let's just call miyuki or shirasu and meet at some cafe , it's not like I can think of a solution myself anyway ....)
( after an hour inside cafe )
miyuki- ( laughs ) your new girlfriend really likes to worry about you Ken. but why didnt you tell me after getting heart immediately. you are being cold already friend ( sad ) ..
ken - shut up with your teasing man . I'm really troubled here but seriously why do you look like you haven't been sleeping properly nowadays.. that black bags under your eyes. ( worry ) .. just tell me what's worrying you honesty.. I'm free for a while anyway . I will listen to your problem then ..
miyuki - you really have nothing to do huh ..( sigh ) okay then , well it's a common problem for a small factory owners like my family . according to my dad , some big contractor cancelled their order with us unexpectedly. we are short on money right now but dad doesn't listen and still forcing me to study overseas. I'm really thinking of a solution all the time so there is just no time to sleep..
Ken- you've got yourself a nice dad . ( smile )
miyuki - I know . that's why I dont want to trouble him that much .. so genius do you have any solutions then ? ..I'm not hopeful though ..
Ken- hmm.. how much do you need anyway?
miyuki - ( confused ) why ? it's not like money is going to fall from sky ( sigh )
Ken- anyway just tell me . I know you my friend , you must have a proper amount inside your head already ..
miyuki - you really know me well . hmm.. factory and my fees ... (thinking ) well about 20 million yen is the least requirement. now this much money cannot be borrowed quickly so that's why I'm busy looking for another solution ..
Ken- hmm.. okay if you had 30 million yen then all your problems will be solved ?
miyuki - well yes and maybe some will be left too .. why ? do you have any idea ..
Ken- just tell me your net bank account information..
miyuki - oye oye.. it's fine with me .. here ..( showing me his smartphone) but I dont have any money right now ..
Ken- ( after a while ) baka .. I'm the one that's lending not borrowing.. shut up and check your current amount ( smile)
miyuki- ( after confirming 40 million yen extra ) you you ... why ? how ? ( bewildered)
Ken- ( laughs ) you know it's really rare to see your such expression. the answer to your question is this .. ( showing him shounen jump magazine )
miyuki - major huh .... dont tell me ... oda sensei ? ..
Ken- its pen name of yours truly.. ( smile) . now tell me , is the amount enough or you need some more ? ( smile )
miyuki - thank you Ken. its more than enough. I promise to return it to you with interest someday ... ( grateful )
Ken- baka .. I'm your friend right. so don't care about small stuff ... now order something, I'm starving ( smile ) ...
miyuki- you know let's do that. I'm hungry too ( smile )
miyuki POV
( I know this guy , he won't like to talk about this matter more . but seriously that oda sensei turned out to be Ken. what a huge surprise... I better not tell him that I'm a huge fan , he will tease me a lot then .. sigh .. such a great friend ..)
