Chapter 119 Relationship Problems 2 (1/2)
He could accept being out for two years from the main team because he knew that many players would not normally play at that time, so he thought he was not losing so much, even if he went to another team if he could not win it would not be worth playing.
But Jake could not stand another year that would be lost, so he would wait to see if something changed until the middle of the year before the third year of high school began and if nothing changed he would not even begin the next year at this school.
Jake thought that now that his friend had a new girlfriend he would not be too lonely even if Jake had to go to another school.
Eva also knew what Jake had in mind, in fact, she had been surprised by the maturity of her son for having endured staying almost two years without playing for responsibilities, so whatever Jake did she would support.
So Jake and Eva ended the trip and returned home, Jake did not know now how he could convince his mother to make the trip next year Jake had already bought several books to be able to learn Japanese, but he was sure he would not learn in one year only.
In addition, at school, classes are getting harder and harder, and there were many things Jake did not know, so he did not have as much time to read his books in class.
Joseph had his grades down because of his girlfriend, but Jake had no excuse to let his grades drop, at most he would stop reading books from other subjects in class, but it was not necessary yet, perhaps because his intelligence was so high in statistics Jake can learn things more easily now.
And so the first days of school began after this vacation, Jake thought of his future as he walked the halls and did not even see his friend Joseph coming.
”So, Jake, what are you thinking you're so distracted about? If I had a holiday like yours I'd be happy.”
”Do not tell lies, I talked to your father the other day and he said that he called you to travel several times and you who did not want it even more now I do not think you would agree to stay a few months out of the country and leave someone behind.”
”I told my father to stop being such a gossip, he tells everything to you.”
”You look pretty happy to anyone who has the grades dropping.”
”I do not care about that much anymore, I do not need to have the best grades in the room so I can graduate from school and go to a university, have no reason to study so much.”
”I'm happy because after so long my girlfriend finally admitted that I was wrong and that I should not say she does not like you, so she said if I wanted I could introduce her to you.”
”Who would have thought you'd have the talent to control women, all right then, when are you going to introduce me to your girlfriend?”
”It's going to be this weekend, I'm going to take you and her to lunch at a restaurant.”
”You're too exaggerated, you do not have to be so formal, introduce yourself to me at the end of class today.”
”Not this time will be my way, you have nothing to do on the weekend, you could do this favor for your friend.”
”So dramatic, all right then, I'll be there at this restaurant.”
Jake saw that Joseph was quite happy and smiled too, now he was curious to know who this girlfriend was that was so mysterious for more than a year, Jake could say that Joseph really liked her very much and thought that perhaps in the future Joseph might end up marrying her.
And so the week went by quickly, Jake wore a social shirt that he had bought recently, she was quite wide now, Jake bought several clothes after returning on his trip from Germany, but he was not with Eva this time.
Eva was a bit sad about it but she accepted that her son was growing up, but that was not the reason Jake did not let Eva go with him.
Jake did not even care that he was going to buy clothes with his mother until he was 30 years old, the reason was that even if Jake had enough money he did not want to waste anything, so his old clothes did not suit him anymore.
On the other hand, Jake who had come from the future knew that he would have a big growth spurt in these next six months that would only stop after he turned 18, and with the system, he realized that he would be much higher than in his past life.
So this time since he was forced to buy new clothes to have something to wear he would have to buy clothes much wider than his current size, and in a few months, those clothes will fit.
Eva even fought him after he came back from shopping for not knowing how to shop, it was good that Jake did not have to care about the cost of the shoes because he earned from Clara's company.
When he arrived at the restaurant he saw Joseph sitting alone, it seems that his friend's girlfriend had not arrived yet when Joseph saw Jake he smiled but then looked oddly at his clothes.
