《Be happy with sports 》Chapter 168: The Last Year of High School 3
Advertisement
So Jake grew calmer, he thought it was really impossible, he could stay home that day to ensure and with the luck, he has it was impossible for that to happen again.
Jake went back to his mother's restaurant to see how she was doing, or if she needed help, but when she got there she realized there was already a line waiting for the restaurant to open for breakfast.
Jake came early to make a surprise for his mother, after all, Eva left almost 5 am every day, after talking for a long time they ended up deciding to close the restaurant at 11 at night, so Eva ended up sleeping little every day, yet she was very happy.
And Jake waited until she came home to dinner every night, of course it was he who prepared dinner, even so, Eva sometimes warned before that she would have to eat in the restaurant and he would eat alone, Jake thought it was important that he could eat a meal together with your mother so you do not get too far apart.
Of course if it was necessary he could go to the restaurant to have dinner with Eva, but for now it was not necessary, the important thing for him was that Eva and Anna were happy, when Jake entered the restaurant he was almost stopped by Lola who did not expect no one came in at that hour.
But Lola realized it was Jake's son and who set up this restaurant and she sighed relieved that she had not stopped him, Lola had seen Jake a few times even though he had stayed in the restaurant to help for more than a week, that was because Jake would always leave to settle some matter or stay in the office all day.
When Lola heard from her father that Jake was a basketball player she immediately thought he was like the Mexican boys who spent all day playing on the community courts, these guys always played with her and some were even criminals.
So she was surprised when she saw that Jake did not look like anything to these guys despite being the same age, he looked more like one of those lawyers or businessmen she always saw in movies.
Lola got an even better impression of Jake when he learned that he was the best student in his school and that he who opened this restaurant to fulfill his mother's dream had heard this by talking to Anna who liked to talk about Jake more than that Eve was his mother.

"Hi Lola, how are you?"
"It's all right, Mr. Jake."
"You do not have to call me that, I'm going to be uncomfortable as I'm younger than you, call me Jake like everyone else, how's the restaurant?"
"It's going very well, we have plenty of reservations for lunch and dinner and breakfast always has a queue just like today."
Lola was very happy that Jake remembered her name even though they had only seen each other a few times, moreover, she was relieved Jake was not being too arrogant as some restaurant customer was.
"I'm glad the restaurant is doing very well, I think it's all thanks to your dad who makes delicious desserts."
"Thanks, but I think it's because Anna and her mother take good care of this restaurant as well as customers and employees."
"It's also because of you Lola, I heard from my mother that many clients like your sympathy and education in care, everyone is doing a great job, I'm going to speak to my mother now, bye."
Lola was very happy with the compliment, she would work harder and happier today because of it.
When Jake entered the kitchen after putting a burrow in his hair he saw that almost all dishes were ready, Anna was talking to Eva who was preparing several waffles that were the way Jake liked and always ate to remember his mother in his past life.
"Hi Jake how surprised, I did not know you had come today, come to eat something."
"I saw it to surprise you and my mom, I want some of those waffles later."
"I thought you'd want something that Julius did like everyone else coming in the restaurant right now, that line that's out there is because of his food."
"You do not know Anna, Jake's favorite food at breakfast is my waffles, he would not choose another food."
"My mom's right, I think it's a great idea for you to personally make these waffles, Mom."
"I told you, Anna, I had to make those waffles."
"It's okay to do it."
Jake had not understood, but it seems Anna wanted Eva to let other people make the waffles because they were too busy to make several plates, but Eva insisted that at least she wanted to do it herself.
After Jake ate he could see that really many people were coming to Full English Breakfast, it seemed like it was really a hit and the right thing to do, Anna even had a good vision in the restaurant business and was right about capturing the market.

But the greatest of luck was that all the hotels in the area recommended their restaurant, and all thanks to Julius, Jake recommended that his mother and Anna increase his salary for the next month and both agreed.
A little was Jake's luck that was helping Julius to work with them, but all this was because the service and food were very good, otherwise, people would not come back every day.
Jake went to the office afterward and analyzed and cleared all the restaurant bills, Anna did it correctly and did not spend much more than necessary and Jake also told how much money they could spend after many calculations.
So it seemed that from now on the restaurant could stand alone without him putting more money on his account, it showed the success of the restaurant, so he was thinking of handing all the restaurant bills to the accounting firm that his other company worked.
This was a company that did not charge very high fees and was recommended by Oliver and praised by Emily, so Jake trusted them to organize the restaurant counts when Jake talked about it with Eva and Anna they agreed.
Eva trusted everything Jake said and Anna had a private accountant in her last restaurant, but she knew it was better to trust a company of respect because sometimes the restaurant accountants stole all the money.
Jake asked Emily to talk to them and Emily negotiated with the company, the company accepted the job and even made a discount on the service fee because it was a Jake business that already had more business with them, Jake was happy about it.
After that Jake just needed to come to visit and no longer needed to clear the restaurant, Jake said goodbye to Lola at the exit and went home.
The other day Jake continued his running training, he ran the 50km again and did it in 45 minutes again, seeing that everything was fine the other day he started running 10km in 40 minutes.
So he finished the 50km with much difficulty doing 200 minutes, even being very tired he was happy to decrease the total time in another 25 minutes, but Jake realized that this was his limit again, he could lower in a few minutes but not could do the 50 km in 175 minutes.
If he could do that he would be a lot closer to winning a marathon, but he did not have to be too worried about it, the main purpose of this training was to do more than the 45 kilometers to make sure that his body stood at a distance.
Now he needed to keep trilling at that distance, and with that time, his body and his body statistics could increase further after a few more months, so for the rest of the training week, he continued doing the 50 km in 200 minutes.
After Jake did once more a week of training doing every day 50 km in 200 minutes, Jake did not get too tired of it, but he knew his energy could not handle training faster than that.
But Jake knew his muscles held out more than that, even if his muscles did not heal with a stamina bar, they still slowed down a lot and relied a lot on, so he could handle much heavier running.
After running for several days with the third job the system told Jake about a feature he did not know, this feature was like a video game screen that was transparent in its upper right corner of his vision, this could only be activated in the training or racing competitions for safety reasons.
This transparent screen showed Jake the speed he was running, the distance and the overall time of the race, and that would be a great help in training and races, but the system advised him to take the speed marker, so he would only be at a distance and time.
This was because the system said that looking at speed did not help anything and only made him anxious, after all, he just had to know the distance and the time to see if it was going well, Jake agreed with the system and took the speed off the screen.
With that, Jake could train with much calmer and he had the most exact time and did not have so much variation in the performance after another training Jake would return home, all his training in the next months would always be like this.
It was so that he would strengthen his muscles and increase his stamina, after all when they were a few weeks away from the race he would train using the stamina bar in the middle of the marathon to see if his body could withstand increased speed and pressure on the body.

That is, until the day she received the phone call that shattered her world. "Yuu has been hospitalized." Her precious younger brother, Yuu. In a fit of panic, Mikasa raced towards the hospital to check on him. But her negligence threw her straight into the path of an oncoming car... And that was how the girl known as 'Sawatari Mikasa' lost her life. When she awoke, she found herself before the being known as 'God', who presented her a second chance at life in a new world. She accepted, and only had one question: "What happened to Yuu?" But God would not give her an answer, and before she knew it she was being reborn in a world of monsters and magic straight out of a fantasy novel. However, she wouldn't be satisfied with that.

Even if she had to become God's enemy, or even that of the world's, she would do whatever it takes to make sure her brother is safe.

Having fulfilled her duties as an older sister to the best of her ability, she would peacefully live in this world for the rest of her life. But if Yuu had somehow died, and was in this world too...

Artifice: Iysinfyr
Nalulthyn is the young daughter of a duke that is one day asked for a favor. This favor involves the adopted daughter of the duke from a neighboring area. This girl has had a traumatic past and has closed herself off from the world completely and reacts violently when touched by anyone but her personal maid. The duke hopes that a girl close to the age of his adoptive daughter will be what she needs to recover, but things are never as easy as they seem. First is that this adopted daughter is a Terran, a rare being from a different world that has skin and hair as white as snow and an almost alien build. Second is that there is a power to this girl, one that makes her recovery all the more dangerous to Nalulthyn and perhaps beyond. Author's note: This is a soft reboot of Artifice: Tools of the Gods. As I wrote the other story years ago I felt it would be better to do this approach as my writing has changed and improved since then. For now only two characters will return though I might reintroduce others later in the story. Even though this has the gore tag, I don't plan on being excessive with it. Most chapters shouldn't have any. The only reason I have it is to be realistic with the descriptions.
