Capítulo 61: YOU SHOULD JUST QUIT
As expected i was made a starter on the team that same day i tried out and i would train with the main team. Basara, Daichi, Hidesuke start play three two defense formation said Coach Izanagi. Right coach!! They shouted as they started playing tight defense. Makoto dribbled the ball up the court and both Basara and Daichi stepped to guard him.
Makoto then crossed between his legs and attacked to the right. As soon as Makoto tried to slip away both Basara and Daichi corners him to the out of bounds line however , Makoto passes the ball behind his back and through Basara's legs to Takumi who drives to the rim and scores a layup over Hidesuke. Seems like my defense trap tactics don't work on this kid, he has exceptional control over the ball and is able to pass with such precision through the tiniest of space between my defense said Coach Izanagi to himself impressed.
Makoto, nice pass said Takumi as he gave Makoto a thumbs up.
Unfortunately things didn't went as smoothly for Shino, a boy who looked so timid that even the wind blowing too hard would make him cry. He was clueless about the sport and was constantly used, abused and taken advantage of said Makoto.
Hey you little shrimp get over here said Daichi in a serious tone. Shino then slowly walks over to daichi shaking due to fear and anticipation. Go buy us some drinks we are thirsty from all this training said Daichi. And make it quick too, training will be resuming soon and if you reach late that's five laps around the soccer field said Basara.
I.i have no problem with going to buy it for you guys but you haven't given me any money at all informed Shino. Don't act stupid, you will be paying for everything said Daichi. But.. if i buy that much i won't be able to afford to go home explained Shino concerned. Are you talking back to your senior, do not let this escalate, so go and buy us those drinks , you pathetic little bean sprout said Hidesuke.
Right responded Shino as he held down his head and walked off. Yo Makoto go with him ensure that he buys those drinks unless we will remove him from our training said Hidesuke. That kid is really stupid and gullible, there's no way that he'll ever play a game said Daichi as he laughed.
Not that i care or anything but these guys are some cruel bastards, taking advantage of that poor kid, if i were him i would have quitted the first chance i got said Makoto to himself as he walks up to Shino.
What the hell, is he crying? Shino who notices Makoto and wipes his tears and looked away. Makoto who felt a bit sorry for him sighed and said here. Shino then looks up to see money. I'm not sure if this amount will cover your travel funds but thats all i got on me now said Makoto.
Thank you so much this means so much to me. Please don't thank me and let me help you with those said Makoto as he took a few bottles from Shino. Really? that's so nice of you. Let's head back now said Makoto as both him and Shino made their way back to the court.
You really are amazing Kurai, you're already a starter on the team and training with the main team , that must be nice said Shino in a low and sad tone. I really need to clarify something with you. How can you put up with those guys they are really ruthless and heartless bastards, you know that they'll never allow you to play right? All they are doing is using you and treating you like trash. Quit basketball, it's for your own good said Makoto.
No,no,no, i can't give up this sport i love watching it so much and its fun. Thats why i want to learn the game on my own and experience it for myself. If i quit know ill never know the feeling. Tell me how can i be as good as you? How can I not suck at this sport please tell me!! Screamed Shino as tears filled his eyes.
I wasn't able to respond to him when he asked me that question, i was completely speechless, at that moment, i thought to myself that he has alot of suffering to endure because he was determined not to quit said Makoto. Finally , you're back, I've gotten really tired of waiting said Daichi. What the hell is this? I told you that we wanted drinks but you went ahead and bought water said Daichi pissed.
I think that it is not good to drink soda after such intense workouts, so i thought that water would be better and coach Izanagi would say the same thing. Hidesuke then opens a water bottle and emptied it on Shino's head. You're so useless to the point where you can't even be a proper errand boy how pathetic said Hidesuke.
You should just quit the sport while you're at it you'll never amount to anything but a stupid water said Basara. Shut up!! It doesn't matter what you guys say I'll become one of the best players in the country and also become better than all of you just you wait and see said Shino.
Both Basara and Daichi looked at each other and started laughing. Someone is a bit delusional today said Daichi. Who the hell are you telling to shut up bean sprout that's twenty laps around the football field. But that's impossible the field is too big said Shino. If you don't complete it , I'll see to it that you never touch another basketball again said Hidesuke harshly.
At the time i didn't reall care about what they did to him, he couldn't even stand up for himself that's what I thought to myself. Even after harassment and doubts and discouragement he still kept on going trying to improve himself without having any knowledge of the sport or assistance from a coach. He trained before, during and after training but he still didn't make no progress said Makoto.
