The girl of my first love, whom I met again after seven years. I’m falling in love with you for the second time. - CH 13

Chapter 13: In the large room

POV: Hiroto

“Hiroto! I’m here! You’re healed!”

“Huh… Takuma, shut up.” (Hiroto)

I sat on the bed and closed the book I was reading. I scolded Takuma, “Does this guy know that we’re in a hospital?”. Yoichiro, who had a bad feeling about this, was quick to warn him.

“It’s a big room, so be quiet. You’ll bother the others.”

You can always count on Yoichiro. Takuma… why are you always so noisy?

“It’s been a long time, Hiroto. I’m sorry I couldn’t come last time. I was watching from the stands, and when they carried you out in a stretcher, I got worried.” (Kazuya)

“Oh, Kazuya’s here too! Long time no see, I’m glad you came today.”

“There’s nowhere to sit, let’s go outside.”

“Yeah, Takuma’s too noisy.”

The twins, Sho and Tsubasa, think the same way every time. They are a little bit childish, but they are reliable and breathtaking when it comes to baseball.

“I guess so. You can move, right, Hiroto?”

“I’m fine, there’s a common room over there, let’s go.” (Hiroto)

I grabbed my crutches, apologized to my roommates for the noise, and left the hospital room.

The room I was staying in had four people in it,one bed was empty and the other 3 were occupied.

One was a women with a broken back, and the other two were elderly people.

“Hiroto! Listen to me! There was a cute girl just now!” (Takuma)

“Guys… what is Takuma talking about?” (Hiroto)

“Oh. I met a girl from my school.” (Kazuya)

“Kazuya’s school?”

“I met a girl from my class when I was coming over, and she was with him.”

“”Yeah, she was pretty cute.””

As expected, the twins were in perfect harmony.

“That’s why you were so excited when you came to the hospital room… So, Takuma , what’s so important about that?”

“Hiroto! What are you talking about? It’s very important!”

“I’m sorry, but isn’t she from Toko University? We’ve probably never met and I don’t know who she is.”

Currently, I just wanted to get out of here. But the dispatch isn’t until next week…

“So Kazuya, did you like Koshien?” (Hiroto)

Since Kazuya wasn’t here last time, we talked about a lot of things like we used to do in middle school. Eventually it got late and they left.

Koshien… it seems like fun.

By the time I got back to my hospital room, a person was standing in front of the door. I knew this person, and I called out to him.

“Hello, Saito-san.”

“I came to see if you were alright, but I couldn’t find you. Are you getting dispatched soon?”

“Yes, I’m leaving the hospital soon.”

Saito-san was the one who had a collision with me during the game. He had came to visit so many times that we were able to talk without any tension. By the way… there are a lot of visitors today.

“It’s next week, isn’t it? I came here today because I wanted to check when you would be out. My parents wanted to meet up with your parents…” (Saito)

“My parents?”

I didn’t understand why but Saito’s words were convincing.

“Because… I hurt you.”

“No, that wasn’t your fault. You said it was an accident during the game.”

“Not according to my parents, apparently. I’m sorry… are your parents going to pick you up from the hospital?” (Saito)

“They’ll be here, they have my luggage. I’ll be out by mid-afternoon.”

Toru-san is a doctor, and he’s in this hospital every day, but he’s working… he’ll take the day off with my mom to come on the day of discharge, so it shouldn’t be a problem.

“I’ll bring my parents in the morning.” (Hiroto)

On the day of my discharge, Saito-san’s parents and I are going to meet.
