The injured were transported to the hospital, including Arata, on those carts. While they were being transported, as Melia, Arata's mother, was holding the firewood, their house was in front of the gate, with some houses in front of them. She saw the entry of those carts carrying the injured inside them, and while These carts were passing in front of her, and she saw her son Arata injured among those carts.
The firewood fell from her hands out of extreme astonishment, and she said in her mind in surprise, "Arata?!" She was afraid for her son, and she was still in shock. She quickly went towards that cart that had Arata in it, and when Arata saw his mother, he asked the captain to He forced the cart to stop for a moment, and he got out of the cart and could barely stand, and when his mother saw him in that state, she began to shed tears and went towards him and hugged him, crying and not even knowing what had happened to him. She was unable to utter a single word out of her astonishment, and Arata was in between. He was comforted in his mother's arms at that moment, but he had to continue the road and go to the hospital, so he boarded again.
Before he left, he told her that he was fine, and asked her not to worry about him, while she could not hide her fear for him.
In the hospital, on that dark night, Arata was ashamed of himself, even though he tried his best. He felt like he was so weak. He was frustrated with himself. From that day on, everyone had to realize what it meant to be a soldier. They also had to realize that they had to train hard because it was scarier than they imagined.
By that morning, the teacher, Yuzuru, came to the hospital and woke up Arata harshly. The teacher said harshly, "Hey, wake up, you idiot! You are still asleep at this hour!" Arata quickly woke up from the trainer's screams, and Arata said to the teacher while he was not in a state Good, "Oh, I'm sorry...but this is because of my injury.." But as soon as he said that, Teacher Yuzuru hit Arata where he was injured. Arata started screaming because it was painful, especially since the wound was still bleeding some blood and they had to bandage it. once again..
Arata tried to stifle his screams, he had to endure anyway.
The teacher said, "If you had such a minor injury...then you wouldn't be worthy of becoming a soldier!" Then, the teacher went away just saying this.
They were difficult and serious words, but they were real and bitter words.
After that, Melia, Arata's mother, came to check on him. She was very worried about him. Arata told her about what had happened... but he did not want to tell her that the matter was serious. He tried to convince her that nothing significant had happened and that he had suffered some minor injuries. His mother was not convinced and told him about The topic of college, and she warned him. She explicitly asked him to leave college, and she was serious in every word she said, but Arata did not want that. He did not want to give up on his dream. He was not satisfied with what his mother was saying, but she wanted to guarantee his safety.
Arata refused to leave. It was difficult for him to say that and go against what his mother said. He tried to convince her with his words, but she was not satisfied. She warned him that if something else happened to him, he would leave the college without any discussion....
(Be waiting for the next chapter on Thursday and Friday... Sorry that the distances between the chapters are a little far... but I feel that the situation will be more regular this way... Thank you.)
