Chapter 8 - After Game (1/2)

Shun's daily routine after returning home was to prepare the bath. In his new life, Shun took a quick shower in the morning after exercising with his mother. As a Japanese person in this life, he got to know the charm of taking a soak in a bath tub and hot springs.

[A/N: I made a mistake in phrasing the last line of the above paragraph, it was pointed out to me, and when I read it again I saw that it might be confusing and misunderstood, so I changed it. Again thx for comments.

A/N: Writing on the phone sucks. Changed, hit --> hot. Thx for pointing out the mistake.]

Shun would heat the water, fill the tub, clean his body before soaking himself in hot water to wash away all his tiredness from the day. By the time he was out of the bath, his mother would return home from work.

Shun and his mother talked about their day for a while doing some mother-son bonding.

The next item on his list was to do his homework and revise the material taught in class. Shun was never overwhelmed with studies because he studied every day and didn't let material pile up, as expected of the routine lover.

While he was doing his homework, his father would return home and hop into the bath.

Unlike Shun and his father, who preferred their baths just after coming home, Shun's mother took one just before going to sleep.

Shun would then set the table, and the Kageyama family proceeded to eat on the dining table away from the T.V. They liked to talk to each other during the meal, and it was a good family bonding time.

Shun's parents weren't able to come to watch the game, so the topic for today was the game, Shun told them about his teammates, the opposite team, score and who they will be going against on day three.

Dad: ”We both are free on the day of the finals, do you think you, and your team can win all the way.”

Shun: ”Of course, our team this year is very skilled.”

Mom: ”Then we will come to see your match. It has been a while since I have seen my baby boy play.”

Shun: ”Mom! I am not a baby anymore. I am already twelve years old and would become thirteen next month.”

Both of Shun's parents laughed, seeing Shun complaining and getting embarrassed.

After dinner, Shun's parents both went for their daily walk together to spend some time alone with each other.

Shun: 'They sure do act all lovey-dovey, why couldn't they just make a younger sister for me to pamper.'

Now the only task left was to watch Shoei's match video and see how far had Kiyoshi Teppei had developed.

While watching the video, Shun found two players on Shoei who were any good; Kiyoshi Teppei, who played as the center, and Nakamura Taichi, who played as the power forward, both were second years.

The rest of the team was not useless, but neither were they anything special.

All of them had above average height and skill, but that was all.
