章 109: A Quick Break

The sun dipped below the horizon, casting long shadows across the streets as the team decided to grab a bite after a long, grueling day of matches. The fatigue weighed on everyone, but the victory had ignited a spark in their spirits that they couldn't ignore. Walking side by side, Sota, Ryuji, Kaminari, and the rest of Seiryuu High's flag football team made their way to a local diner. Their footsteps echoed lightly along the pavement, some of them laughing and others still in silence, absorbing the day's events.

"Man, today was nuts!" Ryuji exclaimed, breaking the quiet. His hands were behind his head, a satisfied grin plastered across his face. "That interception at the end? I'm still buzzing."

Sota smirked, a tired yet contented smile creeping across his lips. "Yeah, you pulled it off just in time. I still can't believe we managed to score in the last minute."
