Chapter 176 Home coming
After packing his clothes and tidying his room, Hiro was now standing infront of the mirror.
Under the light of the morning sun which was flowing inside his room from the window, Hiro’s skin was glowing.
His appearance as handsome as ever, some strands of his curly black hair were dangling infront of his eyes, partially obstructing his vision.
Slightly slicking back those lose strands of hair, Hiro muttered to himself as he looked at his image in the mirror, “May be I should cut my hair during my home visit.”
While muttering such, something perked up inside him as he began to stare at his image in the mirror even more closely.
Staring at his own figure, he began to softly feel his face as he mumbled to himself, absent-mindedly, “I never knew that I was this good looking.”
Because of the constant struggle to prove himself, he had never paid much attention to his face in neither of his lives.
Especially in his previous life, because of the dream he was chasing after, he was so busy with improving himself that everything aside from football felt insignificant to him.
Completely neglecting every people who were close to him, he desperately tried to improve himself. But Alas! No matter how much he struggled, his injuries always prevented him from attaining his dream.
Reminiscing about the times when he ignored his parents, his only close friends, his heart sank a bit as he felt remorseful about ignoring them in his previous life. He then muttered in a low voice while berating his previous self, “What a jerk you used to be.” while staring at his figure in the mirror.
Knock!! Knock!!
Just then, he heard a sudden knock on his door. Quickly regaining his composure, he styled his hair as he answered, “Yes, come in”
And as the door opened, four people entered his room. Each one of them dressed equally well, they all looked very elegant.
“Woah!! Look at this bastard dressing so well. You’ll cause the air hostesses to fall in love if you enter the airplane looking like this.” Joked Shun, as he entered the room.
Dressed in a plain white shirt made up of silk, blue jeans sort and a pair of Jordan-1 red and black, Hiro looked damn good looking at that moment.
“Hahaha… If you ever get a girlfriend, you should probably hide your girlfriend infront of him.” Breaking into laughter, Yuya joked while lightly tapping Shun on his shoulder as if he was trying to console Shun.
Tatsuki and Shunta who were also present in the room, joined them as all of them started to make fun of each other.
Laughing, joking and conversing about the matches and embarrassing stuffs that happened to them in the past, the four of them completely forgot the reason why they had come to visit Hiro.
And for a while it seemed like their jokes and conversation would last forever.
Thus in order to put a fullstop to their idle conversation, Hiro had to step infront. And even though he was enjoying their silly conversations, he still had a flight at 12.
“Guy’s! You do realise that I have a flight at 12?” Interjecting their silly conversation, Hiro reminded them about his departure time. 𝒍𝒊𝒓𝒆𝒂.𝓬𝒐𝓶
Hearing his words, all of them quieted down as they stopped their unnecessary talks.
After that Shun stepped infront and extended his hands towards Hiro. Looking at the hand infront, Hiro grabbed his hands.
And as he grabbed his hands, Shun pulled him closer as he hugged him and mumbled, “Have a safe flight you bastard. And don’t ignore football while you’re enjoying your vacation.”
Just as Shun was saying such, Tatsuki too added, “Yeah!! Make sure to train regularly. Don’t come back looking like a pig after a month.”
After saying such, Tatsuki too joined Shun and Hiro. Shunta and Yuya followed as well.
The five of them embraced each other for a while.
And only after exchanging good-byes did they released each other from their embrace.

[Attention everybody!!]
[If anybody haven’t fasten their seatbelt, please fasten your seatbelt and stay at your seat. The plane will be landing now.]
Hearing the announcement, Hiro lightly grabbed his seatbelt as he turned his head towards the window.
Looking outside the window, he felt quite excited as he witnessed a familiar scene outside the window.
Hills, forests, houses, landmarks, which he was used to seeing, brought him a feeling of nostalgia as he witnessed those scenes once again.
Suppressing his smile, he kept on looking at the familiar scene outside the window as the plane continued it’s descent.
[Everybody please exit the plane in a queue without pushing each other. Also do check for your items before exiting the plane.]
As he heard the announcement, Hiro untied his seatbelt and rose from his seat. He then as mentioned by the announcer checked his pockets and bag carefully, before exiting the plane.
Coming out from the airport, he took his phone out as he began to phone his father.
Ring!! Ring!! Clack!!
Not even three seconds passed and his father already picked his call. As if his father had the phone in his hand at the moment when he was calling him, Takashi picked his call right away.
“Hello Dad!! Where are you?” Questioned Hiro while looking here and there.
“I’m at the taxi stand. Where are you right now?” Takashi questioned him back.
“I just came out of the airport. Wait I’ll come to you.” Saying such, he cut the call as he began to walk towards the taxi stand.
Arriving at the taxi stand, he easily found his father. Standing infront of one of the taxi, Takashi was excitedly waving his hands.
“So that’s your son?” A middle-aged man seated at the driver seat of the taxi, questioned Takashi as he noticed a young man entering the taxi stand.
“Yeah he’s my son Takahashi Hiro.” Proudly replied Takashi with a smile on his face as he stormed towards Hiro.
The taxi driver too stepped outside his taxi.
Upon reaching Hiro, Takashi immediately embraced Hiro tightly before giving him any chance to speak.
Hiro too dropped his luggage as he locked his hands behind his father’s back.
Getting embraced by his father after so long, he felt really warm as he started feeling a tingling sensation inside him.
His lips curled and his brows arched. He was genuinely happy to meet his father in person after so long.
Takashi who was meeting his son after so long couldn’t contain his happiness as well. Thus, he continued to embrace Hiro for a while without saying anything.
Hiro did the same as well.
Looking at the father-son duo, taxi driver who was watching them from a distance softly mumbled to himself with a smile on his face, “They sure do love each other a lot. It’s quite rare to see such bonding between parent and children in this age. But is he really thirteen though?”
