Indeed, the next day, Sheva was put on the bench, not being allowed to play the game. Fortunately, he was allowed to leave the hospital straight away after another round of check-up that showed he had no problem, so the boy could wander around freely that day. He couldn't imagine getting trapped in the hospital for all day, having to relive the traumatic event of his father's death for so long. It sure would drive him crazy.
For the ninth round of the tournament, Claudia also had a day off on the women's team. She volunteered to step aside after losing the game yesterday, and while Anna was worried about her, she didn't know how to cheer her up, so the task fell on Sheva, who was also free that day.
"So… What should we do?" Sheva asked as they strolled into the hotel.
"I don't know… I think I just want to be lazy today." Claudia sighed, not feeling energetic.
