"What!? You've injured your shoulder?" Seiji Hanada couldn't believe his eyes as he stared at Ken who was currently had his right arm in a sling.
Ken had a guilty expression on his face as he tried to explain what happened to cause his injury.
Of course he didn't tell the coach that their manager's father had assaulted him, but it didn't seem too far from the truth.
"You ran into a steel pole?" Coach Hanada was flabbergasted.
"What were you thinking? How could you be so careless?"
The next 5 minutes was a stern lecture surrounding an athletes duty of care towards their own bodies since it was essentially their livelihood. He went on and on, not even noticing the small smile appearing on the corner of Ken's lips.
Ken wasn't mad, in fact he was quite happy inside. The way the coach was reacting told him just how much he cared about him, despite the occasional name calling in between the advice.
