Chapter 183 Glimpse of past
His heart started beating faster as he began to have an urge to scream aloud while listening to the words of manager Makoto.
Barely holding back himself, he suppressed his emotions nonetheless.
‘I shouldn’t miss this opportunity. No matter what I should get selected. Afterall the U-17 world cup will be taking place next year.’ Thought Hiro after hearing about the invitation from national U-17 team.
And while he was thinking such, his eyes were glowing with determination even in that dark room.
Under the pale glow of moonlight which spilled through the window, his shadow was elongated on the floor beneath.
Lost in his own thoughts, he was completely ignoring the fact that he was still on a call.
Failing to hear any response from the other party, manager Makoto was repeatedly asking, “Are you listening?”
Only after asking for three times, did Makoto finally heard Hiro’s response, “Yes sir. I’m listening. And sorry for not replying sir. I was just lost for a moment.”
Even though Makoto was a bit agitated by Hiro’s absentmindedness, he still acted unbothered, “It’s alright. Just answer me within 15 days. And it would be even more better if you can answer me in the next 7 days too. Also Shun has been invited as well.”
Saying such, manager Makoto ended the conversation as he cut the call and went back to sleep.
Hiro on the other hand was already starting to think about the training camp. Afterall who in their right mind would reject a call up from the national team.
So despite the time manager Makoto had provided him to make his decision, his decision was pretty obvious. He was going to take the call.
“Well I know why manager Makoto wanted me to make my decision within 7 days. He probably wants to hear my answer fast so that he can immediately start working on the strategies which doesn’t revolve around me.”
Thinking such, he shifted his attention towards the window.
Just like diamond dust which was scattered across a velvety canvas, countless stars were flickering in the night sky.
The moon, a silver crescent hanging delicately in the sky was glowing with soft ethereal light, giving out a sense of tranquility to everyone who looked at the sky.
“The night sky sure is peaceful.” Muttering such, Hiro closed his eyes. After a while, his consciousness drifted away as he fell asleep.

Inside a large spacious room illuminated by countless lights, Hiro was seated infront of a mirror with somewhat grumpy look on his face.
The girl from yesterday who had asked Hiro to appear on her newtube channel was currently putting some light make-up on his face.
And while watching the scene where Hiro was getting dolled up, his friend Akashi who was standing behind him was trying his best to suppress his laughter while taking a peek at the reflection in the mirror.
It was clear from Hiro’s reactions, he wasn’t enjoying the process.
“Why do I need makeup? I’m not even a girl.” Complained Hiro as the girl who was putting makeup on him began to tap powder brush atop his face.
“Just stay still for a while.” Saying such, she refocused her attention on the task underhand.
“You still need to look good. I’m not telling that you don’t look good. Infact your look is already comparable to that of an idol. However a little makeup won’t hurt, will it?” .
“Also judging by the pace you’re developing, I’m sure you’ll soon get offer to appear on advertisements. May be you’ll even get a sponsor soon. At that time you’ll need to put on some makeup when you appear infront of the cameras. So treat it as a training for the future that’s about to come.”
While she was saying such, Hiro’s attention drifted towards the direction where Sumire was standing currently.
Positioning the cameras, she was totally focused at the task infront of her.
And just as his gaze landed on her, she slightly slicked back some lose strands of her hair behind her ear. And although she did that unknowingly, her appearance at that moment was dreamlike which inturn made Hiro’s heart to flutter. .
‘You’re still as beautiful as ever.’ Thought Hiro while looking at her.
The look on his eyes gradually changed as he kept looking at her. And while there was a hint of longing in his eyes a moment ago. Now his eyes displayed an emotion full of grief and regret.
‘Even back then you were just as beautiful and cheerful as you are now. But I still had to let you go because of circumstances. No if I really wanted to be with you then I shouldn’t have let you go in the first place.’
‘It was just me playing the victim. I blamed the circumstances for making me to let you go. While you tried your best to stick with me, I kept pushing you away.’
Thinking about his past where he had let go of the hand which held onto him when he was at his lowest, his heart sank as he remembered about his past.
In his previous life, Hiro had dated Sumire for quite a while. Infact it was during middle school years when he first met Sumire in his previous life.
Although nothing happened between them in their first few years together at the school at that time, it was also at those moments when they got to know each other.
And only in his third year of middle school, did they actually grew closer to each other. While one was an introverted person who rarely talked to peoples. The later was also an introverted person but didn’t seem as lonely as the former
Despite having a lot of people to talk to, Sumire of back then always felt like there was a hole in her heart.
Some jealous of her looks while some simply persuing her for her looks, she knew that almost everyone whom she talked to were putting facade.
The girls in her class acted sweet infront of her while they bitched her behind her back. The same was with the case of most boys, they were only after her to own her.
Thus despite being surrounded by peoples she always felt lonely.
