The lunch break is coming to an end, the families are already recovered and have gained much more strength to continue with the second part of the Sports Festival. Many took the opportunity to laugh with their families, others to have a nice time, talk about the day to day, perhaps meet with people who could not in the past but now they can. It was noticeable for the most part that everyone had great families and that they gave each other a hand, because that is how it should be, a good family, without any mistreatment and abuse, all being equal, a loving family results in a loving home and that results in a loving growth. The parents gave him what he wanted, but without going to the extreme of spoiling him, they treated him with kindness and looking out for his well being, they had everything necessary to say that it is the best family, they did not have the problems that others went through, but even with all of the above, it is not known why the son came out all the opposite.
『They would have narrowly won, but very well done daughter』『Yes that was bad luck, but don't be discouraged, they can still come back』.
Kanon's parents, the Abe Family were wanting to encourage their daughter for the previous event that they managed to win it, both the mother were very loving and had never raised a hand to their daughter, they may have reprimanded her and called her attention, but never to the extreme of coming to blows or even coming to yell at her, for the child who suffered a lot, for the Abe Family to be her new parents, would be a miracle that could never be repeated. The parents were doubtful and even sweaty, and it was because of what their daughter might respond, who was rattling her chopsticks and must occasionally touch her food, as if playing or even caring. And this might be painful, as her mother who prepared the Obento, it is noted that she did it with love so that this time her daughter can eat it and not leave it half eaten.
『Bad luck? Not even close? You guys really don't know how to say what you need, I tried hard, I prepared a lot, but the others didn't even make the cut, can't they take something seriously for once in their lives? but what a disgusting people, they really disgust me, I'm the only one who has to do everything as it has always been, Lys...why...why did you have to do it....』
You could notice the face of contempt in Kanon, he was squeezing his chopsticks so hard that it seemed that at any moment he could break them, his mother was warning him that he ate little, that if he doesn't finish it he won't be able to recover the strength he lost before, but to his mother's concern, Kanon responded in a way....
『Take it easy mother, I can do it alone, I see that they don't have confidence in me or what I think, they say they believe in me but they don't show it, or maybe it's because I don't get to notice them, anyway, the second half is coming, I see that it will have to be repeated, get ready Yashiro, one day you will have to prove me wrong 』
Kanon again meant in that he will have to mess with Yashiro, as he remembered what happened earlier. When he went on to talk to Yashiro, although more than talking he was reprimanding him and even humiliating him, Albert's intervention and his words, he also remembers the instant he prevented Yashiro from falling to the floor due to fatigue and how he told him those words that were not as strong as usual he says to him. She also remembered how Lys addressed her and the moment when she felt frustrated and clenched her fists and teeth.
It was not even necessary to look at her face, the people passing by Kanon's side could feel a hostility not from this world, like if you get close to this person you will only end up hurting yourself. There were many people, other parents who wanted to talk to Kanon's father. Mr. and Mrs. Abe, but many of them stayed still when they felt Kanon's bad aura, they even doubted whether they should continue their tour or not.
Mr. and Mrs. Abe belong to the APAFA of the School, and for those who don't know what APAFA stands for, here it is: The Parents' Association (APAFA), is an organ of collaboration with the activities of the school, through which parents organize, collaborate and participate in the activities that the School proposes. The Board of Directors is the link between the Director and the Parents.
Kanon's parents belong to this body and on top of that, they are the ones with the largest seniority. Mr. Abe is the President, while Mrs. Abe is the Vice President. They have a very important role in the school because if it were not for them there would not be these big events, they are the ones who plan, help in almost everything and only in order to give the students a better experience in their school life. Many parents who also belong to the APAFA come to solve their doubts and help in whatever way they can, that is why they look for the Abe Family. But as I said before, many are hesitant to approach them because of the behavior and hostility of their daughter, Kanon, who always seems to be upset and if you make eye contact with her, it is like she is judging you to death.
Although the Abe Family are important, they are ordinary, good people, good people who by their good charity support others, they are the kind of people that you can easily become friends with and get along with. But a lot of people also treat them like you shouldn't get to annoy them, because they might go away with the reception they get. It must be for that very reason that when Kanon was verbally abusing Yashiro at the school gate, no parents intervened, as they knew they would be messing with the son of the most important person or most important people in the school. They always saw that they treat their son with affection and that they are looking for the best for him, if they see someone contradicting him, the Abe Family could get to have a grudge for messing with their family and that is the least they want.
The other people are grateful to have the Abe Family and to be in the APAFA and to have these great events, but at the same time they are afraid to tell him certain mistakes.
One parent who was going to resolve a question with Mr. Abe stopped when he saw Kanon, he was afraid of what he might say and decided to leave. But quickly Mr.Abe in a friendly manner addressed that retreating father.
『Do you have something to tell me? I'm all ears, please tell me your doubts *smile*』.
Mr.Abe was waving his hand for the father to come closer, where the father at first was afraid and thought that he should treat him carefully his words, they started to talk and tell each other what had to be resolved, it was an adult conversation that children would not understand. When they finished talking, the father who came was afraid and doubtful, he was thinking whether it was right to tell his doubts to Mr.Abe.
『I see, with that is the problem, there is still time, we will have a meeting and there we will agree it in more detail, thank you very much for noticing and saying it in time, if you see something wrong don't hesitate to tell me』.
Mr.Abe patted the other father gently, where the fear he had quickly disappeared, he thought that if he told him the problem he would get even more upset and brag about spoiling it, since that's for sure how Kanon would have acted, but no, he was very understanding and very kind. As he was leaving the father was thinking that Mr.Abe is a good person, and that he doesn't understand then why his daughter came out abusive, of which the phrase, like father like son doesn't work here.
While Kanon was having a discussion in his mind, he was about to break the chopsticks in his hands, but before he does, he felt a small hand touching his arm, it seems that this brought Kanon into consciousness who turned hostile to the side.
『Sister? Are you alright? you didn't eat almost nothing, don't you like mom's food?
His brother, Abe Dai who is only 3 years old went to his sister who seemed not to be on the right track, before his head filled with veins, he wanted to make sure that his sister is okay. Kanon looked at his little brother who had a worried face. Where he then happened to look at his obento and noticed that he ate literally nothing.
『I'm not hungry, it would be a waste to throw away the food, you're growing aren't you? so eat all of this』.
Kanon was putting the obento in front of Dai, Kanon turned his eyes and didn't want to know about his brother, but he quickly heard a little noise like a mouth opening saying "ahh" Kanon turned around and found that his little brother was picking up a small tomato with his chopsticks and wanted Kanon to eat it. Kanon was frowning, Dai's little hand was shaking where it could no longer and the tomato ended up falling to the ground.
『Are you an idiot? If you can't do something just don't do it, use a fork or a spoon instead, I hate it when people do something they can't, they only end up failing sadly, avoid that happening to you at all costs, understand?』
Hearing Kanon's words, Dai just happened to lower his gaze and apologize. You could tell just by looking at Dai what it meant to be Kanon's brother. The parents who saw this were worried and again wondered when the change was made, if the same situation had happened years before, Kanon would have joked and played rough but restrained with his brother. The laughter and fun their daughter was giving them, even though she is a troublemaker and didn't know how to hold back, they liked her very much. Now it seemed like she was even a different person.
Dai looked at the tomato, took it in his hands and began to eat it without further ado, where he quickly heard an angry cry from Kanon who scolded him for eating something from the ground. The fright was so much that it made Dai jump out of fear and in again to apologize.
『I'm surrounded by jerks』
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On the other hand we have the Minamoto Family, what can I say about this family, they always walk around very relaxed although they also have their unruly and funny moments, that's more because of Rino's little sisters, Kaede and Iroha who in this time will be about 4 years old, although perhaps little has happened, but for Rino who literally spent his life together with them and is their brother, seeing them grow up and have little changes is a cause for surprise.
『Yes they are big, and to think that when I entered elementary school you were like that, you were so cute 』 *(*'∀`*)☆.
Rino commented as she recalled how her sisters were years before and how they are now slowly changing and growing with the passage of time. The first to respond would be Kaede, who is the most mischievous and talk back so to speak.
『Chickie? I'm not a little girl at all! Ahh!!! I want to be big already!!!! I want to grow up!!! The things I could do when I grow up! Why do we have to be limited because we are younger? It doesn't make sense! I can do what an adult does and even better, but one thing if you're not mistaken, I'm cute, yes, but instead of cute one day I'll become a killing machine! And I'll kill everyone who stands in front of me』 (・`ω'・ ●)
Kaede without further ado started punching Rino with all her might, but since she was still a little girl, her blows were hardly felt even though she was punching with all her might. As she kept repeating again that she wants to be big for once and be able to do better things than adults.
『Uhmm, then I'll have to try harder to fulfill that wish for you, I see you're already doing your part, although it would be nice if you stayed like this, I guess, I'd like to protect you and spoil you a little more *smiles* 』.
Rhino went on to caress her sister Kaede's head, where from the fast and strong strokes Kaede was giving, Kaede stopped and became very flushed from one moment to the next and all the confidence she had, disappeared as well.
『Protect me?.....uhmm yeah, I guess you can for the moment, I give you that permission, and besides I also like you to pamper me.... wait?????!!!!! Won't you be able to spoil me when I grow up???』
『Let's see, when people grow up they are no longer pampered by those who raised them, he himself has to fulfill that little whim, it's one of the disadvantages of growing up *smiles*』
At Rino's answer, Kaede thought it over, she liked being treated with affection and even having some whims fulfilled, but if she gets older she won't be able to have that privilege anymore, she was doubting it a lot. Rino laughed softly as she watched her little sister as she scratched her head and fidgeted back and forth to find the answer.
『I don't get it!!!! Why would the people who used to spoil you before stop doing so when you grow up????? It doesn't make sense? Is it that they don't love you anymore or what???』
Kaede was shouting for an answer to her doubts, before Rino says what her little sister, Iroha, was looking for, her other younger sister stepped in to say it calmly and serenely.
『Well I think it's because we lose something, people mostly love and treat with affection to the small, easier to say it would be to the cute and innocent. When there is a baby, people will treat it well because of the above mentioned, cute, innocent, and not only in babies, also baby animals, puppies and kittens, that because they are so cute and small, and know nothing of the world, people will protect them, that they have a good growth and there would unconsciously enter the pampering, when you grow up you lose what you had at the beginning, it is no longer cute, in worse occasions it becomes the opposite, the innocence that you had also disappears, and each one will see with what to replace it, as it already becomes an adult and must be seen on its own, well, who wanted to pamper someone who can fend for himself? 』
Iroha because of her knowledge that she learned just by quickly analyzing the situation, she said an answer that has a lot of hits, although perhaps she wanted to be the adult , and even Rino noticed, she used the term cute and small implying that it is a conclusion drawn from a little girl. Rino was surprised and congratulated her little sister Iroha, who will surely know many more things when she grows up, Kaede who listened and could barely understand her sister was with more questions than answers.
『Then why did I stop being cute I won't be pampered anymore???? But what kind of a world is this 『?
『Then I guess you don't want to become an adult anymore?』
『Eh?.....It's not that....it's that I....』
Rhino seemed to checkmate her sister with that simple question. Kaede was thinking about wanting to be an adult, but she didn't like it if it consisted of losing what she has now. Iroha after analyzing and in accepting that this is how life is, she became sad, unlike Kaede, Iroha wants to be a little girl forever, she feels that she is not ready for the world when you grow up. Both sisters were worried and doubtful. If it had been someone else, for example Konomi, she would tell them the truth without further ado and that they should accept it, that it is foolish to try to escape from reality and problems. That the only solution is to stop being a child, and that now your next stage in life begins. But not Rhino, Rhino is different and if he can do something for his sisters, he will certainly do it, helping them in their doubts in the best way.
『So, no matter, no matter if one day they become big and all grown up, no matter if they start living alone and get to have a family, no matter if they have daughters, no matter if they become an old lady, I will love them and see them as they have always been to me, my little sisters, who I will advise, I will caress their heads, I will hug them with all my love, I will help them if they have a problem and of course, I will also pamper them, I will love them very much no matter how much time passes, I just hope I can live long *smiles* and that they continue to trust me』.
Rhino showed a warmth and gentleness like no other, when they heard Rhino's words and attitude at this moment. The sisters felt for a few seconds as another female figure made her presence known to Rino, where perhaps, for different reasons, both sisters peeked out and sank their faces into Rino's body, as they didn't want their brother to see them cry.
『I see that, I have no choice but to accept it....I hope you keep your word Nii-nii, but even if you break it, I know that you are very stubborn』.
『Thank you so much Aniki, I'm so glad I can be your sister』.
Both Kaede and Iroha were hugging their brother tightly for the words he said that touched their hearts, Rino didn't expect this and as expected noticed that his words made his sisters cry, he went on to hug them and apologize for provoking such a feeling. Rino's father, Minamoto Ryo was quietly observing and appreciating the moment of his children, Ryo was wearing glasses because he has eyesight problems, when he saw his son act that way, he did not avoid remembering his wife who was like that.
『(You went out a lot to your mother, Rino, thank you for giving them the affection they should have in the beginning)』.
Ryo seemed to be moved by the scene that he shed some tears, he went on to remove his glasses to wipe the few tears he had, where he also did not avoid thinking that it was these glasses that he is wearing right now that started his story with who would be his future wife.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In another side we return to that tree where our Yashiro is, who also already fixed the problem of Albert to trust us, we went to continue playing the board game that Lys brought, which we played was typical of the first to reach the end wins.
『Look at my compaches!!!!! Not even Messi can make this shot!!!! Here we go!!!』 (=ↀωↀ=)✧
Lys joined hands to turn the dice from one side to the other, where without further ado she threw it to the table, but she was very confident as she was about to win, it seems she was unlucky and the number that came out made her take a route that led her to the beginning of the game.
『 =ộ⍛ộ=...What a thing, isn't it? AAAA!!!!! You're fucking with me!!!!! I see I'm not the same as before *sigh*』 (⁎˃ᆺ˂)
Lys was frustrated that she had victory in front of her and bad luck didn't let her win. I'm not going to help it, when I saw Lys who left at the beginning of the game, I didn't avoid wanting to tease a little and feel good.
『 Well, looks like it's not your lucky day kitty friend Lys, thanks for making me win, after that that's what you're after, isn't it 』 ฅ(*°ω°*ฅ).
I was about to win too, where I am not about making show or making suspense like Lys, I was simply going to roll but the moment I was about to roll, quickly Lys started to tickle me where I did not avoid to be alarmed and let out a few laughs. The number on the die made me fall into the same square as Lys and I too went all the way back to the start of the game.
『Always together as it should be, I see that fate does have good tastes UHM UHM!!!』 (=ↀωↀ=)
『Enseriously? Who puts such a box at the end of it all? I see you like to watch the world burn 』 ('-ι_-`)
The next to roll the dice was Albert, where he managed to catch up with Menhera who was the next closest to reach the end. As I expected from my friend Albert, no problems or anything exciting, all very normal. Although I don't know if it's right to say it that way....
I was trying to get away from Lys since she had me by the shoulder as if we were very close, at that moment Yushi pointed to Menhera commenting that she was a strange girl. When I passed by to see Menhera I saw her that she was with her eyes closing and begging for something.
『Fall in the box fall in the box fall in the box fall in the box fall in the box fall in the box please』 (๑→ܫ←).
She was bouncing the die in her closed hand where without further ado she rolled the die, and in the end it was she who won the little board game, although Menhera did not seem to be happy, as she fell to her knees on the floor as if she had lost.
At that point the Directo made the call that lunchtime was over where we quickly hurried to meet with our group, and in passing we thanked Lys for inviting us and to hurry as well.
『That was very entertaining, so he's the guy you told me about?』
『That's right, isn't he too skinny and weak? hahahahahahahahaha we have to change that, you know that, right? I hope you made good use of this moment, because there won't be another chance like this, there! You really are very cute Yushi!!!! You came out just like your parents! I wish your father was here..... Good! Let's get on with it! And let's end it once and for all because I'm really getting tired of it!!!! Lesss goooouuuuuuuu』
Lys raised her fist and even her little ears of ribbons moved, Yushi also raised her hand imitating her sister that they would enjoy what's left of this Sports Festival.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Without wasting time we started with the second half of the Sports Festival and the game is the Tamaire or the game of basket ball, it is more than clear, the students have to put as many balls as they can in the hoop before the time runs out. It is very easy because you just have to throw the balls in a crazy and silly way, or that's what my classmates do.
Brayan just threw the ball but it didn't go in because it bounced off another ball, Brayan was about to complain but he found out that it was Perro who threw the other ball but even though they are friends they continued to fight but between them.
『Don't you see or what? ???? You're a dog for a reason, no????』 『What are you doing complaining to my midget???? Go back to your village with the Smurfs, you little brat!!!!』』『 What did you say?????』 『What? 『What about what?』 『What about what about what about what about what about what』
While elsewhere, the rival hall named after them, they were watching how our classmates were fighting with each other.
『Look at them, like wild apes fighting over a silly thing, not like us who have IQ and know how to use it!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA』
Ishi stood on top of his huge chubby friend while his other teammates passed him the ball in hand and he easily put them through the basket.
『He! GG Izi bros!!!』
Ishi was boasting that he was winning and doing things right, but Dani who stopped his ball in order to witness this didn't think it was right and went on to complain to his teammate, where he replied that in which rule this was forbidden. Dani was going to complain but remained silent, and stealthily walked to the big guy's side.
『It doesn't say in any rule, but it annoys me 』.
Without further ado Dani made Fuji fall down who fell on his back which seemed to make the entire duck echo, there was also Ishi who was rolling his eyes, but when he regained consciousness he went on to claim to his partner.
『I want to win fair and square, so stop using your cheap tricks, face of..... face of..... ah, soup face without seasoning』.
Dani isn't very good at insulting people and she's not very creative when it comes to making them either, she pretended nothing happened and continued with the game. Ishi had no choice but to play cleanly as well so as not to bother her partner anymore.
On the other side was Konomi who was basketing the balls calmly, she seemed to have control of the ball, but when she was about to throw the ball a voice congratulated her.
『Very good Nanase-san, as always you are the best』.
When she heard that Konomi got a little agitated, to bad, where almost narrowly the ball she shot to the basket almost didn't go in. Konomi gave a sigh of annoyance where he said that he was going to start again. He turned to look and it was a classmate of his named Joshua, Yamada Joshua. The boy was smiling and conveyed an aura of good people.
『You again.....now what do you want?』
『Nothing, I just wanted to support you since I see you are trying hard, as I expected from Nanase-san, come on come on fight! come on come on fight! do you like it?』
Joshua out of nowhere happened to cheer for Konomi, Joshua is a guy who for a long time has been so to speak, behind Konomi, but always with good intentions, since he encourages her, does favors, takes care of her, practically is very good with Konomi. But for a person like Konomi to have a person like Joshua is like....
『No, I don't like it, more like it makes me uncomfortable, you can go to the side, what are you in the way if you're not going to throw the ball』
Konomi quickly put a wall over himself and made his discomfort noticeable by standing next to Joshua, where the boy quickly found out that true, he should dunk the ball.
『I completely forgot about it when I saw you, you are a flashy person Nanase-san』.
Joshua said it with all the good intentions in the world, but to Konomi this seemed nauseating and he passed a look of contempt to Joshua. Konomi threw his ball but Joshua also threw the ball which they ended up colliding in the air without making them fall into the hoop.
『Look, our balls collided, don't you think that's funny?』
『The idea is to basket the ball.....』
『Ah! I see, thank you very much Nanase-san *smiles* 』
Konomi again threw his ball, but because of the lack of concentration brought by Joshua he couldn't put it in at one. The ball was spinning on the edge of the hoop, but everything indicated that it was going to go in sooner or later. POM! In the Joshua threw his ball pushing Konomi's ball and to top it off, the boy's ball didn't land in the hoop.
『It's my first try, how did you like Nanase-san?!!!! Nanase-san?....』
Joshua was satisfied for throwing the ball, but when he saw Konomi with an annoyed face he started to get scared and wondered what happened to make him like this.
『Hey kid, I'm not for your little games right now, so I'm warning you right now, go somewhere else if you don't want to get hurt 』.
『Hurt? No no no nothing like that, this is a healthy game, isn't it...besides I don't want to go somewhere else, I want to be with you』
『(╬ Ò ‸ Ó) 』
That comment made Konomi angry and without saying a word he went to another place, and as if he were his lapdog, Joshua was following Konomi from behind.
"Ah! You're looking for another hoop because you can't dunk in that one, aren't you? You're very perceptive Nanase-san 』
Joshua was complimenting without any reason to Konomi, where without further ado Konomi stopped, Joshua was going to collide with Konomi's back, but Konomi realized quickly and did his best not to touch her, when he realized that he didn't touch her, he gave a sigh of relief, Konomi happened to turn her head to look at him.
『I don't want to be mean but since you love to do it, leave me alone once and for all, I don't need your support, even if you do it with good intentions, there are people who reject it and I'm one of them, I don't want to turn you for the rest of the day, you make me uncomfortable, did you hear? 』
With those very sincere words, Konomi was leaving away from Joshua since for people like Konomi, being together with Joshua is not the best thing to say. But even though direct may have been Konomi's words, Joshua anyway understood it for the best.
『I understand, good luck in the other games, Nanase-san』.
I was giving him good encouragement to keep giving his best. This kid how could I tell, I think Lys who saw it all knows the answer, Lys was holding the ball and was with a confused gesture.
『Wtf and this who the porongas is he? 』 (=・ェ・=?
Lys was thinking who this guy was, where without further ado so as not to be impolite to leave her with an unanswered question, Joshua went on to explain.
『I am your classmate, my name is Yamada Joshua, you acted very well in the race just now, I think your action is fine if what you wanted is to make the other person happy, it's very admirable of you Lys-san, I wish I had done my part better too』.
『Wtf? He just answered a question that no one asked him and also just praised me and thinks he understands what I think』
Joshua was happy and with a smile on his face, compared to Lys who was still confused about who this guy was who seemed to appear out of nowhere.
『Pera pear, part? At what point did you run too? 』
『Eh? But I also ran in the Tutti Frutti race, didn't you see me? Other students also participated for the other competitions that were there, we participated more students I swear, don't think that you are the only ones!』
『Wtf, why do you keep doing it? seriously there were more competitions? uhmmmmmm I really don't remember, the only thing I can think of is that they aren't so relevant that they didn't even bother to write them down, I feel like you weren't even there before』
Lys was having a conversation with Joshua who to him thought it was weird that they didn't notice that he even existed, Joshua did a thousand ways to make Lys understand that he is no weirdo.
『I've been with you since first grade! Don't you know about Sato-san? Okada-san? Nagamura-san? Maeda? Kobayashi? Iwasaki? You really don't know them? We are in their same classroom?』 Щ(º̩̩̩́Дº̩̩̩̩̀щ)
Joshua was making a great effort to make Lys remember who they are, but even though Lys was wracking his brain to remember who they are he couldn't.
『I come to know little of their existence....Argggarggggggg the only one I remember is Han Solo, but you and the ones you say no 』 Σ(-᷅_-᷄๑)
Joshua lowered his arms for not getting you to remember them, Lys pinched Joshua's cheeks to find out if it was real or a figment of his imagination, but when Joshua screamed and felt the touch he knew it was real.
『Anuma if you are real, I'm sorry but I don't know who you are, I think if you are very irrelevant , well, adieuuu!!!』
Lys shot the ball and as if he already had it very much under control, he put the ball in the hoop giving another point for our team. At that Joshua stood still in the same spot, it looked like he was going to be depressed but he quickly got better and saw the bright side.
『As long as I'm not relevant, I guess it's okay, right? if I'm not that interesting I guess it's more than okay...but .... well, that doesn't matter now, I have to make our team win even if they don't know I'm here, fine! I'm going to try hard!』
Joshua raised his fist, implying that he will give it his best, POMM!!!! Quickly a ball fell on his head making him fall down, Brayan and Omar who were fighting picked up the ball and went to see Joshua lying on the ground, but quickly to not worry them, Joshua stood up saying that he was fine and that it was good that it was him, that this misfortune could have happened to someone else. But when Brayan and El Perro saw Joshua they asked the same question.
『Wtf and who the fuck is he? 』(・・)
Looks like Joshua has a long way to go to make a name for himself in this world.
