Chapter 91: One accident created a half-year illusion, and one illusion caused countless regrets
Half past four in the afternoon.
For the first time ever, Ryuzaki Sakurano went home early.
She turned down all club activities and other things.
At this moment, her expression was quite complicated.
After walking into the house.
"I'm back......"
He took off his shoes and said something.
But today my parents were nowhere to be seen at home.
“Thump…thump…thump~!”
"Welcome home!"
next moment.
Ryuzaki Sumire appeared directly in front of Ryuzaki Sakuno.
In his hands he held a racket and a tennis ball for individual practice, secured with strings.
"grandmother......"
Ryuzaki Sakuno, who was startled, sighed helplessly.
"How's it going? Do you like it?"
"In two days, when I return to school, I'll ask Tezuka and the others to teach you how to play tennis."
Shaking the thing in his hand in front of Ryuzaki Sakuno, Ryuzaki Sumire said with a smile.
The moment the words fell.
Ryuzaki Sakuno fell silent for a moment.
Then he put the resignation letter in his pocket on the table next to him.
"grandmother."
"This is something the school asked me to give you."
"I'm going back to my room."
Then he prepared to leave.
"hehe......"
"He must be tired from school today."
"Your parents are out for something today, so it's just the two of us."
"I'll take you out for a nice meal later."
Ryuzaki Sumire said, shaking her head fondly.
Then he picked up the envelope on the table.
It was only when she saw the two big words on the envelope.
The whole person's smile froze on the spot.
His eyes were filled with disbelief.
"Sakura, did you take the wrong one?"
"It must be a prank you played on me, little girl."
"The Seigaku Tennis Club must be in serious trouble right now. They're too embarrassed to speak directly, so that's why you're doing this, right?"
"Okay, take it out. I'll go back to school tomorrow~"
Then, he seemed to come to his senses.
Ryuzaki Sumire shouted at Ryuzaki Sakuno, feeling both amused and helpless.
"Grandma...you didn't get the wrong one. It's the letter of dismissal."
"The Seigaku Tennis Club is much better now than before."
"Grandma, you're old, it's time to retire~!"
Stopping, Ryuzaki Sakuno sighed deeply and spoke softly.
Although she doesn't know much about many things in the tennis club.
But the changes that we see with our eyes are real.
The first-year junior high school student who was supposed to pick up the ball only had this much time.
Some people have already demonstrated remarkable talent.
Even the overall strength and atmosphere of the Youth Academy Tennis Club are changing with each passing day.
Bang!
Accompanied by the sound of a door closing.
Ryuzaki Sumire sat down on the chair weakly.
I don’t know how much time has passed.
Ryuzaki Sumire left home.
Strolling through the streets of Tokyo at dusk.
It gives me a feeling of being frustrated and unhappy.
"Whoops..."
"What the hell is wrong with you, Ryuzaki?"
"I've called you several times, but there's no response."
next moment.
A familiar voice came into Ryuzaki Sumire's ears.
Standing in front of me was Mikiya Banda from the Yamabuki Junior High School tennis club, who was smiling.
He was waving at her at this moment.
"Banda."
After saying this softly, Ryuzaki Sumire prepared to continue walking forward.
"Would you like a drink?"
"As the saying goes, a good drink can dispel a thousand sorrows."
Glancing at the envelope with the word "dismissal" written on it in the other person's hand, Banda Mikiya suggested.
"it is good."
Ryuzaki Sumire couldn't help but tighten the envelope in her hand, and finally accepted the proposal.
Soon after, his companion Tian Gan also came to a izakaya.
After drinking a glass of soju in one breath.
Only then did Ryuzaki Sumire start talking.
"Why do you fire me just because you want to?"
"If I hadn't brought Echizen Nanjiro out that year."
"Can Seishun Academy maintain its glory for that long?"
"They said that a year of picking up balls was a stupid decision, that my thinking was too traditional..."
He poured out his grievances for about ten minutes.
Looking at the wine glass that had just been filled in front of her, Ryuzaki Sumire fell into silence.
"Ryuuzaki."
"It's time for you to retire."
Shaking his head, Ban Tianqian said this very seriously.
"why?"
Still unconvinced, Ryuzaki Sumire questioned directly.
"first."
"The glory of Seigakuen has always been due to Nanjiro."
"That includes you."
"That's inevitable given his brilliant talent. With anyone's guidance, he'll soar to new heights."
"If you really have that ability."
"Why hasn't Seigakuen made it to the national competition yet?"
Ban Tian Kan'ya picked up the wine glass, drank a glass of shochu, and said slowly.
"Secondly."
"Picking up balls in first grade is a year of settling in. It's the stupidest tradition ever!"
"Let's not talk about the golden age of tennis players. Let's just talk about whether playing tennis was just a hobby in the beginning?"
“The level of passion for an interest is a process of gradual development from scratch.”
“You gave negative feedback when positive feedback was most needed.”
"The results can be imagined."
Just when Ryuzaki Sumire was about to open her mouth to refute.
Ban Tianqian said again.
"Then."
“How many professional tennis players didn’t start practicing as children?”
"Some have even started playing tennis at the age of four."
"But you just let him pick up balls for a year, wasting his best growth period."
"Besides, the boys who join the tennis club do so to play tennis, not to become ball boys picking up balls in the future."
Ryuzaki Sumire opened her mouth and wanted to speak, but the reality that hit her heart left her speechless.
He immediately drank the glass of soju in front of him.
"at last."
"As a tennis club coach."
"Internal order was never maintained."
"If it weren't for Tezuka Kunimitsu, do you think the Seigakuen Tennis Club would be a well-ordered place now?"
"I've heard about seniors bullying juniors before in Yamabuki."
"It's come to this. Who do you think will benefit from staying here?"
"As a coach, what I need to do is to prevent students from taking detours and provide them with correct guidance, rather than being complacent, unrepentant, and out of touch with the times."
Every word written by Kan'e Bantian is a gem and every sentence is heart-wrenching.
Although Ryuzaki Sumire is an old acquaintance.
But if the other party was not fired, he would not bother to tell him these things.
Because even if I tell them, they won't pay attention.
After saying that.
After paying for the drinks, Ban Tiankan waved his hand and left with a smile.
