"What a great honor! After today's training, Kobe invited me to the garden field! To play with him, I rejected Kobe once, I can no longer refuse Kobe's father, let's go immediately!"
After Michael Udin took off his apron and said goodbye to the boss, he left the restaurant with the Kobe family.
The Bryants drove two cars, and Pamela took the two Kobe sisters home first.
Joe Bryant took Michael Udin to the park to pick up Kobe. The reason why the family drove two cars was because Kobe's two sisters didn't want to sit in the same small place as Kobe, who was sweating after training.
"Odin, where are you from?", Joe Bryant, as someone who has worked abroad, knows the bitterness of traveling to a foreign land.
"I'm from Indonesia and came to the United States myself." While speaking Michael Udin looked at the bright lights on the road behind the car window
"Did your parents know you were gone?" Joe Bryant asked
"Of course they know it's just that with a strong enough opposition", Michael Udin answered Kobe's father
"No wonder if you are friends with Kobe, he is also a child who doesn't want to listen to his parents' advice.
But honestly, your cooking skills are really amazing, I really didn't expect a kid your age to be able to cook", Joe Bryant tweeted, reminding Michael Udin of his parents nagging.
"The path my parents wanted might not be what I wanted the most. For example, for me, if I listened to my parents, I might become a great person with a good salary but I think I want what I really want without other people intervene because this is my life. So I took a gamble with myself and decided to go to America, I thought the basketball environment in the United States could stimulate my greatest potential, so I came to Philadelphia myself."
From now on, Michael Udin thought about how he would subtly guide Bryant's parent-child relationship.
"Indeed, the level of training in the United States is more scientifically advanced than anywhere else in the world.
If my European teammates had embraced the influence of American basketball, maybe they all had the power to enter the NBA." Joe Bryant also knows how good the American basketball environment is from high school, university to league.
In the past, Michael Udin had to run for half an hour to reach the park, when Joe Bryant and him in just ten minutes by car he had arrived at the park.
Right now, only Kobe was alone in the garden grounds.
"What? Dad! Odin?", Seeing Michael Udin get off the car With his father, Kobe rubbed his eyes, he wondered if he was hallucinating when he was hungry and he wanted to faint.
"Son! Remember where we were going to finish dinner today?", Seeing the shocked Kobe of his life, Joe Bryant laughed.
"Isn't that a new restaurant recommended by a neighbor?", Kobe still didn't understand, what it had to do with Michael Udin.
"Haha! I work at that restaurant!, remember when I refused you to go to the park to work, I also made dinner that Mrs. Pamela prepared for you!" Michael Udin tried to boast of being able to work when he was a minor.
"Oh my God, your job turned out to be a chef!
I really didn't think that you could cook!, Come on, how about one on one?
You've been working for a few hours, and I didn't take a break, now it's fair to you and me! "
Kobe did not say that he had beaten everyone on the court, as long as there was a basketball player standing on the court, Kobe would struggle to compete with the others, even if those who wanted to play for a while saw Kobe stand up. There, I could only go home in sorrow.
"Let's do it, we were once teammates and made a good opponent!"
Kobe and Michael Udin immediately started playing. The confrontation between the two is very interesting. Nothing can prevent each other. Kobe's first move was too fast, and Michael Udin's shooting point was too high.
Seeing Michael Udin's competitive level, Joe Bryant was a little surprised.
Kobe's basketball skills are tuned by him. Seeing that Michael Udin's age is almost the same as Kobe's, but his skills are also very mature. Joe Bryant didn't know that Michael Udin's body and mind actually underwent a slight change. Michael Udin deserved it even before Michael Udin's soul was in his body, his body had been training since childhood, so with the combined mentality, Michael Udin's condition is now more mature.
Until the last game until it had no power, Joe Bryant took mineral water from the trunk, Michael Udin and Kobe drank it and lay on the ground shirtless.
"Kobe, I want to talk to you about something. I want our family to be Odin's adoptive family or guardians. He has nowhere to depend in Philadelphia. He can only rely on a part-time job at a restaurant to maintain his education.
If Odin comes to our house you will have to hand over the attic where the basketball collection is housed to Odin, Now I want to ask your opinion. ', Joe Bryant crouched down beside Kobe, asking his son what he thought.
"Really? That's great!, Even if you don't mention it to me, I want to!
If Odin hadn't wasted time in the kitchen, the two of us would definitely have won back-to-back Pennsylvania State Championships together!
By the way, dad, did you know?
Odin says he is also an AC Milan fan! "
Kobe is very happy with Michael Udin's move to his own house. Despite the very short time to hang out, Kobe has identified Michael Udin as a friend from the bottom of his heart.
"Of course, my son!, Then let's go home together!"
From this point on, Michael Udin became a member of the Bryant family.
