Chapter 24



Go to Florida # 1

“Go to America. ”

I’m having dinner, and my father suddenly tells me to marble.

The marble is furious and greets me.

“America?”

“Yes, this is the Florida you were talking about. I did a little digging, and there really is a tennis academy in Florida. Some of the current world rankers are affiliated with them. ”

I thought marble was a good parent.

My father really said timely words to him who thought that his commitment might be enriched because he lived every day as best he could, but he was a little sturdy because he was called Saturn.

“Well, you can go on a short course for two weeks, or stay a month, if you want · No, more than two months. ”

“Can I go to America by myself at my age? How much does it cost? How do I get a visa to stay there? ”

My mother was annoyed with the marble that was digging for skewers.

“The only thing you have to say is, ’I’m going, I’m not going.’ You don’t have to worry about how we prepare and send it. ”

She’s always the mother of the weak, but there is a king who scolds the opponent in this decisive context. The marble was full of moisture just like the king.

“I’ll be going, then. Let’s go, let’s go. First of all, I want to go back about a month. because you’re going to be going around a lot. ”

With a shy response from the marble, my parents laughed in relief.

“Yes. Pack your bags if you decide. I’ll be there tomorrow.”

“Tomorrow? It’s winter. ”

“Florida is fine if you go now. If you understand, eat and pack. ”

Today, I was a parents who treat marble a little, but in fact, I feel bad about my parents. The mind is an adult, but the body is now 11 years old. I don’t know what to do, but the important conversation with my son is always so clever and hard because of the commitment of one parent to approach logically.

After the quartz said yes, he quickly started to eat and pack.

It beats like a heart. You’ll be able to compete with your peers for the first time, and maybe you’ll have a chance to mix the ball with your current pro.

What about Jinhee? ’

Nowadays, Jinhee seems anxious somewhere.

I had a hunch I shouldn’t be away for a month at a time like this.

I realized that I had no choice but to talk to my parents. But come on.

“I talked to Jinhee’s parents. I was worried that Jinhee would be depressed these days. This is our chance to get some fresh air and cheer up. It’s a great experience to go abroad at that age, isn’t it? ”

“But aren’t you nervous about just sending two kids? ”

“Huh? Why are you two going? She’s going to have an infancy.”

“Yes? ”

The marble surprised me.

I was also filled with gratitude and apology that my dear aunt is taking on the role of a guardian.

“There’s a seminar near Florida, and what university hospital? He said he was going to make a deal with you or something. Actually, it’s on schedule. ”

I thought marble was lucky. It is because unilateral lungs are not a problem.

* * *

15 hours.

I listened quietly to the adults who said it would take that long. I don’t have a direct line, so I have to go through it.

Jinhee rubs her sleepy eyes and grabs hold of her arm.

“Sleepy?”

Jinhee nods quietly as she strokes her head.

“I’m about to get on a plane. Have you ever been on a plane?”

“No · · · · · · · ·. ”

Jinhee’s expression excites me with the question of marble.

No matter how young you are, the child is a child. I’ve never been on a plane in my life, and I can’t help it.

I traveled abroad a lot in my previous life, as well as marble. He participated in numerous competitions and raised the participating tribe trophy. Although not as much as the average athlete, he was able to afford at least his own expenses by contracting with sports brands.

‘You can do it again. ’

You take a firm grip on your confidence and move your feet toward the gate.

* * *

“Ladies and gentlemen, we are about to arrive. ”

A stone with a frowny waist on it when the pilot’s announcement was heard.

It was a seat that I thought I could lie down, not sit down, but it was so long that I wanted to move my whole body.

“It’s time to wake Jinhee up!”

Yeong-Ae looked at his dull face in the mirror and told the stone with cowardly makeup.

“Wake up, Jinhee. ”

Quartz gently woke up Jinhee who was sitting next to him. Jinhee, who was beginning to blink her eyes at the voice of marble, was so asleep that her eyes were clouded.

“Hey · · · Are you close? ”

I wonder if he looked up at the sky and marveled at it for 10 minutes. After that, I sleep all the time.

“Here we are. Ugh.”

After clearing Jinhee’s clothes, she started unpacking her things.

Of course, I couldn’t reach the key, so I got help from the stewardess.

“Just buckle up. ”

The spiritual child was perfectly groomed and cared for the children.

Soon the landing began with a light vibration and noise, and the plane was safely seated.

“Nice day. ”

It is neither cold nor hot in Florida.

When she saw a foreigner waving her hands from afar, she pretended to know him and said hello.

“First of all, I’m going to the tennis academy today · · Are you okay? ”

“Of course.”

She talks to foreigners in English.

Surprisingly, I understood almost all of the marble. Jinhee was a little less studying than marble, so sometimes she could only understand a few words. Anyway, after the conversation, the foreigners dragged the car. Then you load the party’s luggage in the trunk and urge them to leave. After saying it would take two or three hours to get there, marble caught a slight wrinkle on his forehead.

‘My back hurts. ’

* * *

It’s lame.

I think I can describe this landscape only by saying it’s really sad.

Quartz has been imagining an elite gymnastics facility, but the Academy is sloping and its surroundings are just endless horizons. Old hotels, unmanned gas stations, and more.

“Amazing · · · · nothing. It’s not a military facility. ”

Young Child grumbled lightly.

Then he leads marble and Jinhee to the entrance of the Academy.

I told the security guard I wanted a simple transfer, that they were the ones who contacted me. They cross-referenced the list with Shrug and let me through.

“Wow!”

Unlike the outside, the interior of the facility was incredibly modern.

Jinhee was amazed. Lessons in South Korea were also noted as the best facilities in South Korea, but the sites were different from the funnels of the buildings, and the stone used to live in the 2010 ‘s was definitely modern.

Young-ae leads the group forward.

I could see the certainty of knowing both marble and Jinhee from the spirit.

Soon, I was able to enter a building and explain it to the security guard again and enter the office.

“I would like to apply for a four-week Junior Breeding Program. ”

The clerk nodded as she spoke. Jinhee stared at the staff because she thought that the foreigners were curious.

“Jinhee, excuse me. ”

The curious gaze was lifted only after the quartz was paying attention.

The clerk explained the course of the program generally in the words of the child.

I also sat still and listened to what the employee said.

1. Basically, accommodation is provided. Sleep is a principle of sharing a shared room with four people.

2. Men and women are distinguished from programs to diets in almost every part.

3. Bob is given three meals a day, and other nutrition needs are also given in the form of snacks.

4. One-to-one coaching, as well as tournaments between children, is conducted once a week.

5. Basically, the coat has 50 sides, of which junior class uses 10 sides. Currently, there are twenty children who applied for this program, including marble and Jinhee. The information needed was piled up on the heads of the marble.

‘Wait, twenty people? It’s a little small, isn’t it? ’

Twenty people in a program that is clearly considered one of the best tennis institutions in the world. The quartz questioned and asked.

“Only 20 people? ”

A clerk flawed the question of natural marble and replied.

“The United States is in the middle of a semester, and usually there are a lot of Asians, especially Japanese. Let’s see. The marble is Korean. Definitely South Korea, right? You must be the first Korean student since our institution was founded! Congratulations.”

“Haha, yes. ”

Feldspar, who thought it wouldn’t be much of a celebration, got good information from the staff member.

That is why many Japanese are coming. Obviously, Japan has a different level of tennis infrastructure than Korea.

‘Well, it’s hard to find a sport that doesn’t have dimensions. ’

It won’t be the tenth place, but it would be helpful as Japan has dispatched world rankers who consistently rank in the top 100. In particular, I thought that women’s tennis would definitely help Jinhee because it was a successful Japan.

“There are other aspiring students who are on the pro stage, ages ranging from 15 to 20. ”

A marble glared at the employee’s words.

“Do you have a chance to mix the balls with them? ”

The clerk stopped and replied to the question.

“Depends on how you do it, marble. They were determined to go pro. If it benefits them, we can fight them all we want. ”

“Yes, I understand. ”

The quartz had expectations.

An eerie struggle erupts from the cold, puffed-up eyes.

‘What eyes. ’

The clerk confronted the frighteningly cold stare of burning marble and gave me the creeps.

Based on years of experience, this child was thought to be very likely to succeed.
