Chapter 2 A Normal Day 2 (1/2)
More that makes Jake sad, it's the fact that his talent is wasted.
After his mother died, Jake was much sadder than when he found he could not walk.
Especially when I heard it was from depression.
Just so Jake found that his mother was great at hiding what she feels, she normally smiles at him and he has never seen her cry since she was a teenager.
More in fact she was saving everything for her.
After that to try to cheer on Jake, one of his friends who played basketball in college told Jake to play with him.
When Jake played at school he tried to play basketball for a while, but for always having a great time
they made him play center, or other positions of strength, and he scored only a few points and did not defend well.
Although he knew that he lacked training, he realized that he had no talent for the position he played in and after that he never tried again.
More without being able to use his legs, what he could do in basketball was to just throw and pass.
What his friend and even Jake realized was that he actually had a great talent for pitching and passing, which he did not do in high school because of his tall stature.
Because you have to have a lot of talent so that without training, you can shoot 3 points without jumping.
Still, he liked the feeling of scoring 3 and continued training.
