Chapter 90 A dark past
With every passing minute, several new students started to flock over at the football pitch. And the already crowded pitch got even more crowded and noisy.
The loud jeers of the students coming from the field reverberated like a noise from some sort of carnival all over the school. And soon it even caught the attention of the teachers sitting in the teachers office.
"Do you hear that noise Yumi sensei?" A middle-aged teacher dressed in white silk shirt and casual navy pants, who was seated at his desk preparing his lecture materials asked upon hearing the sudden noise.
"I can hear it loud and clear as well Haruki sensei. I guess the students are up to something." An elegant middle-aged woman with fair-skin and brown eyes dressed in a maroon blazer and cream colored chinos seated with her legs crossed just opposite to the middle-aged teacher replied while sipping her coffee.
"Something must be taking place at school." Mumbling such, Mr Haruki rose from his seat and walked towards the window.
While looking out the window, he noticed some students playing football in the football field. He then spoke while looking somewhat amused, "I see. So that was the source of the commotion."
"Did you say something Haruki sensei." Ms. Yumi couldn't hear him clearly because of the noise coming from the field.
"I was just saying that some students are playing football." Mr. Haruki replied while looking outside the window. Suddenly just as he was observing the players on the field, his eyes landed on Masao. The sight of Masao playing football baffled him.
"Ahh Ms. Yumi, before you came here, you taught at Himawari Elementary School right?" Haruki inquired while keeping his gaze fixated at Masao.
"Yes!!" Ms. Yumi nodded her head and replied softly.
"Then can I ask you about one of your students from Himawari Elementary School?"
As if she knew who he was going to ask about, she replied before he could even call out the name of the student he was going to talk about, "Is it about Masao?"
"How did you know Ms. Yumi?" Sounding somewhat astonished, he asked while turning back his head towards her.
"Sigh!!" Heaving a pitiful sigh, she replied, "That poor child has gone through a lot. Because of his weight most of the students always avoided him and teased him. With no friends, he used to spend his early year at school all alone. Finally at 5th year of elementary school, a student who transferred from another school approached him. And he finally started smiling like a child like him should."
As she was speaking of Masao, her face started to turn pale all of sudden.
"Alas! If only-" Ms. Yumi paused all of a sudden.
"If only what?" Mr. Haruki intoned.
Her brows frowning, she replied softly while making a pitiful face, "If only he wouldn't have gotten into that accident."
Noticing her pitiful face, Mr. Haruki couldn't muster his courage to ask her about Masao any further.

"So where's that hot guy you mentioned about?" The short girl from before questioned after reaching the football field.
"He should be right here." While searching for Hiro on the field, the fair-skinned girl from before answered vaguely.
Just then as she noticed the sight of Hiro on the field, her face brightened up all of a sudden. Her face turning scarlet red, she replied excitedly while pointing at Hiro, "Look he's there?"
At that moment, the ball was at Hiro's feet. Faced with three defenders infront, he was looking for a way to break free from them.
Sweat dripping from his face, his white shirt soaked with his sweat had become almost transparent. And since he wasn't wearing anything inside his shirt, his wet shirt was revealing his shredded muscles underneath the shirt.
"Damn!! Look at those abs." With hearts forming in her eyes and her face turning scarlet red, the short girl spoke affectionately while staring at Hiro.
Noticing her friends simping over Hiro, Minami whispered sarcastically, "I wonder who was talking about simps back there in the basketball court."
"Just take a peek at him Minami. He literally looks like an idol." The two girls standing beside her spoke while keeping their eyes fixated at Hiro.
"What's so amazing about him?" Saying such, Minami turned her attention towards Hiro as well.
At the moment when her gaze landed on him, he dribbled past three defenders with swift movements and eye-catching skills.
He then released the ball from his feet and scored a beautiful goal.
"'Gooooaaaaallllllll"'
The crowd of students burst out into cheers as he scored that goal.
His curly black hair dancing graciously, alongside several other girls, Minami got bewitched by the smile on his face.
Noticing Hiro's appearance, her milky white cheeks became as red as a ripe tomato.
"Now look who's simping." The short girl standing beside her giggled while looking at her face.
"Seems like the new guy has bewitched the goddess of Kawasaki Middle School without even trying." The fair-skinned girl with glasses giggled as well.
However Minami simply couldn't turn her gaze away from Hiro who was celebrating his goal with his teammates.
At that moment, Shun's wandering gaze found Minami standing at the sidelines looking at the field.
Her silky smooth black hair dancing freely with the wind, she looked like an angel dressed in white shirt and a black skirt.
'Is she looking at me?' He pondered while looking at her. His cheeks turning red, he couldn't stop himself from staring at her.
Her gaze was looking at his direction as well. However she was looking at Hiro who was behind him celebrating his goal.
"My goddess is here to support me." Shun's heart skipped a beat as he noticed the presence of Minami at the sidelines. "She looks so pretty."
"Now that my goddess is here to support me, I should give my best. I shouldn't concede any goals." His eyes gleamed with determination as he clenched his fist and decided to give his best.
However he was being simply delusional. Neither was she there to support him, nor she was looking at him.
Even so for the rest of the game, he didn't concede any goals. And he even managed to make some unbelievable saves.
