Chapter 89 Masao’s Goal
Chapter 89 Masao’s Goal
Swiftly evading Shun’s palm, the ball touched the back of the net with a swoosh sound.
And even with his amazing reflexes Shun was incapable of blocking Masao’s shot that time around.
‘”Gooooaaaaallllllll”‘
The players from Hiro’s team shouted in ecstasy and started running towards Masao upon finding the ball inside the net.
Not knowing how to react to his goal, Masao who had scored that amazing goal stood still at his place, dazed.
Even so his teammates came rushing towards him to celebrate the goal.
“Dude I never knew that you were this skilled in football.” One of the players said after coming close to him to celebrate the goal.
Masao who wasn’t accustomed to such praises didn’t know how to react to such praises and stood still with his mouth shut.
“That goal was really impressive Masao. Come on you need to celebrate your goal.” Hiro who had also came rushing towards him encouraged him to celebrate his goal.
After hearing Hiro’s words, Masao’s eyes moistened and his voice shook while replying, “Is it okay for me to celebrate?”
‘Why does he look like he’s about to cry? It’s only a goal. Is he that emotional to celebrate a goal?’ Hiro pondered while looking at Masao’s face. ‘Well anyway we scored a goal thanks to him, so it wouldn’t hurt to reply warmly.’
Hiro then put up a smile on his face and nodded his head and replied, “Of course!!”
Witnessing Hiro’s cheerful face, Masao’s face brightened up and for the first time since their meeting, he smiled.
He then threw his arms in the air and enthusiastically yelled at the top of his voice, “Yeaaaaah!!!”
‘Why is he shouting like that? Is he really that happy to score a goal? Or is there really a lose wire inside his head.’ Hiro thought while looking at Masao yelling as if he had scored a goal in the world cup final.

After that goal from Masao, alongside Hiro, Shun’s team started to man mark Masao as well.
However despite having the better players, Shun’s team couldn’t dominate the game as they had originally expected.
Since Hiro dropped deep whenever the opposition went on offense, the opposition found it really hard to score a goal.
With both team’s equally lethal on offense and defense, until the 20th minute of the match, after the first goal from Masao, both team struggled to score a goal.
At around 20th minute of the game, many students began to show up at the sidelines of the football pitch to enjoy the game. And with all those students flocking over the sidelines, the pitch started to become crowded all of a sudden. .
Jeers of students crowded at the sidelines started to create an uproar in the school.
Following other students, Masato and his sidekicks too made their appearance at the football pitch.
“Masato!! Isn’t that fatty Masao?” The guy from before who suck up to Masato spoke while pointing at Masao.
“Yeah!! That swine bastard was here playing football. I was looking for him to run some errands.” Masato spoke while slamming his fist against his palm.
“He’s definitely taking us lightly Masato.” Another guy in his group spoke.
“Yeah!! He needs to be taught some lesson.” With his nostrils flaring, Masato was fuming while looking at the sight of Masao smiling on the field.

At the basketball court, Minami Miura the crush of Shun and several other guy’s from Kawasaki Middle School was playing basketball with her friends.
And the guys who simped over her were sitting at the sidelines, staring at her with heart forming in their eyes.
“She’s so gorgeous right!” One of the guys with long hair seated at the sidelines spoke affectionately while looking at Minami.
“Yeah I totally agree with you.” Another guy standing beside him replied.
“But guys where’s Shun today? He’s not at the basketball court.” A guy with glasses asked.
“Yeah where is he today?” The guy with the long hair replied.
Suddenly some students came rushing towards the basketball court.
While panting heavily, a guy soaked in sweat who just walked into the basketball court spoke in a hurry, “Shun’s playing football.”
“Hahaha…. I guess he finally gave up on chasing Minami.” The guy with the long hair exclaimed while laughing.
“It’s a new thing to hear. For almost three years I never saw him play football in school.” The guy with the glasses spoke while adjusting his glasses.
“Well I find it even more strange that despite being a Footballer, he never played football in school.” Another guy with a short height joined in on their conversation.
“May be he got enlightened.” While replying in a serious tone, the glasses of the guy with glasses shone brilliantly all of a sudden.
“Since he’ll be giving up on Minami. We should go and watch him play for one last time.” In a serious tone, the guy with the long hair proposed to the other guys to go and see Shun play.
“Yeah! As a fellow Minami chaser, we should at least do that much for our fellow comrade in arms.” Saying such the guy with the glasses stretched his arms forward.
“‘Yes my friend.”‘ While grabbing the hand of the guy with glasses, the other two replied with a spark in their eyes.
And as such, one by one, the spectators at the basketball court began to walk out.
Noticing the rapid decrease in the crowd, a girl with short height spoke, “Where are this simps going all of a sudden?”
“Oh!! I heard that Shun’s playing football. And I also heard from my friends that there’s a new student who looks really hot, playing football.” A fair-skinned girl with ponytail replied.
“Then why don’t we go and see him as well.” The short girl spoke excitedly. “Minami do you want to join in?”
“Let’s go. I want to freshen up a bit as well.” Minami Miura, the girl with milky white skin, silky straight black hair and large black eyes replied.
After that the group of those three girls headed out of the basketball court as well. And soon the basketball became ghastly empty.
