Bab 476: Closing Ceremony (2)

"O-Okay, thank you Ken!"

Ken sent him a wink and ran back to the rest of his team, turning back to wave before he went into the tunnels.

"Holy crap! How are you so lucky!?" Michael's friend exclaimed, his jealousy through the roof.

However, Michael did not care about his friend's jealousy. He looked at the match ball and read what it said.

'Dream big and never give up - Ken'

"What does it say?" His friend tried to peak over his shoulder, yet Michael quickly clutched the ball to his chest, tears forming on his face.

He looked over to Ken's retreating figure and shouted.

"I WON'T GIVE UP!"

Ken must have heard his words because he stopped in place and turned back around, flashing him a brilliant smile.

"I know."

He mouthed the words, but Michael could tell what he said.

"Bro, why are you crying?"

"I'm not…" Michael said, drying the corner of his eyes with his sleeve.
