"Hey, hey, no need to be harsh to yourself, Tanaka-san!" Morita said with a worried gaze. "This is just your first day; maybe you are still tired from the journey to this city, right?"
Higo couldn't help but nod, somehow feeling so concerned about the older boy whom he had only met yesterday.
It was after the training session was over, and instead of going back home, Ao Tanaka decided to hit the gym instantly, trying to fix all the weaknesses that he himself had never known he had before this.
"No, Morita, this cannot do." Tanaka shook his head while he was gritting his teeth, doing a barbell bench press as a thick vein popped on his neck. "You have seen their reaction. They are far from being impressed with me. If I want to gain a foothold in this team, I have to work harder than anyone else, and it starts from now."
Indeed, even though it was just one training session, the weakness was so glaring that some of the players just looked at the boy in pity.
