Chapter 444 Absentmindedness

Naoto burst into laughter as he heard him.

"But seriously, what should we do with him?" Tatsuki inquired.

"Let him rest until dinner," Naoto said.

After that, the two of them went on with their business without paying any heed to him.

The sky was a tapestry of soft pastel hues, with streaks of pink and orange blending seamlessly into the azure while the morning sun bathed the landscape in a gentle golden light, casting long shadows, and illuminating the dew-kissed grass.

Birds chirped melodiously, filling the crisp fresh air with their songs.

Hiro who had been out on a run even before the sun had come out was right now in a park near his residency. Taking a moment to catch his breath, he looked around him, taking in the serene beauty of the morning.

The people were few, so he didn\'t need to worry about running into someone.

Well, if he wanted to run, he could have just headed to the training grounds. But for a change of pace, he opted for the community park instead.

After all, later in the day, he was going to depart for the preparation camp. There he\'d spend some days training with other members of the national team.

Obviously, he\'d miss some of his club matches.?It was an international duty after all.

Standing under a lush tree, listening to the chirp of the birds, a feeling of tranquility washed him. Having completed multiple laps around the park, he was soaked in perspiration. His breathing was a little ragged while his heart was racing.

Yet still, he felt at peace when standing underneath the tree.

"It\'s finally the day," he muttered as he glanced at the azure sky.

Then as he took a moment to enjoy the scene, he noticed the park getting crowded. More and more people were starting to show up.

"I better hurry," he said.

Tightening his laces, he then stormed away, leaving the park.

The city was beginning to stir, with the distant hum of the traffic and the occasional bark of the dog adding to the symphony of dawn.

As he swerved through the streets, he came across several street vendors. They were preparing to open their stall and shops.

He had been living in this place for so long yet hadn\'t got the opportunity to explore the city during the early hours. But today, he got to experience it all.

Seeing people clocking into their work, the bustle of the street coming alive, it was a different kind of sensation that he hadn\'t experienced much.

Even in his previous life, due to his lifestyle, he barely had any opportunity to experience it. With training, a part-time job, and matches, he barely got any time to explore the pleasantries that life had to offer.

Yet still, after many sacrifices, he never fulfilled his dream and died with regrets in the end.

Though he didn\'t need to work anymore, even in this life, he had been nothing but busy. Apart from his rise to stardom, and fulfilling his previous dream, he hadn\'t had many opportunities to explore the simplest experiences that life had to offer.

Just like the one at the moment. The opportunity to explore the city early in the morning, due to his obsession with training, he hadn\'t been able to experience it.

The early morning activity of the street mesmerized him.

Sometimes happiness and peace of mind can be found in the simplest things in life.

Often we get so lost in our journey to the top that we all forget it. While thinking about the future, we forget to enjoy our present.

Thinking about the future in itself isn\'t a bad thing. But often in doing so, we forget to live our life. After all, who knows what the future has in store for us? We have little to no control over it.

But the present, it\'s within our reach. So, why not live every moment to its fullest?

Honk!!

"Ahhh!!" he screamed as he nearly got hit by a car.

It was around the corner, so he didn\'t see the car coming. And, he had been so absorbed in his surroundings that he didn\'t even hear the honk of the car.

If not for the driver\'s quick reaction, he\'d have been run over.

It scared the shit out of him. At first, he panicked, but as he found himself safe, he felt at ease.

However, the driver wasn\'t going to let it slide. It wasn\'t his fault after all. But if he hit him, he\'d be the one to get blamed.

Furiously, he stomped out of his car, cussing and yelling, "You bastard! Didn\'t you get any other car to die?"

Hauling indignant curses, he stomped his way to him.

"Sorry sir..., sorry sir," Hiro kept on apologizing.

Bowing his head, he asked for forgiveness. It was his fault after all, so it was only natural for him to ask for forgiveness.

It didn\'t seem like the driver was in any mood to let him go. But as he got close to him, his brows eased as his expression changed.

"You\'re Hiro right?" he asked politely.

A stark contrast to his previous domineering attitude, he sounded completely different. It was almost as if he never was furious in the first place.

The shift in his personality and attitude was pretty obvious. It was due to his fame.

But if it had been any other person, for sure, he wouldn\'t have had such drastic change in such a short period.

Slowly, Hiro lifted his head to face him. He couldn\'t help but wonder about the change in his tone. But it didn\'t take him long to figure out that it was possible due to his stardom.

Though he was taking advantage of his stardom, he felt quite relieved.

Nonetheless, he apologized, "I\'m truly sorry sir. I wasn\'t paying attention."

"It\'s really you, Hiro," the man exclaimed, his eyes shining bright with excitement and surprise.
