Kapitel 166: Monday: Results/Practice (1)

The Atkins firmly agreed with that last part, so after getting home, Mrs. Atkins stopped by mine and Noah's room. "You both will be going to school like normal tomorrow with the other boys."

"But mom-" Noah started to protest.

"No buts." Mrs. Atkins cut him off before he could get started. "Do you really want to make Jake face that woman again just so you can skip some classes?"

Noah looked down. "No."

"I would be fine." I spoke up after seeing Noah looking sad.

Mrs. Atkins gave me a light smile. "Of course you would be. We would support you with all our might. But, think about this, if you miss class or practice, you'll have to sit out the following game. That's the rule. Do you really want to sit out again?"

I checked with Noah. I didn't really mind sitting on the bench as long as Noah was there.
