117. Before The Game

Rei woke up rather quickly the next day. Rubbing his eyes, he stood up and checked the time. It was 6:30, and he had so much time left to go to the ground to play their first match. He slowly started doing some light exercise to loosen the joints from sleeping so long. After doing that for a good 30 minutes, he made his way towards the living room. 

He noticed Shidou reading the newspaper sitting on the couch and greeted him. Shidou turned towards Rei and returned the greeting. Rei sat beside him. Closing the newspaper, Shidou asked, "So, you have a match today?" 

Rei nodded and said, "Yes, our camp starts today. We will play with one of the participants in the camp." Shidou nodded, and then Rei heard Narumi cooking in the kitchen and stood up to help her. Shidou looked at his back and sighed, worried if it would be alright to let him play. He was still worried about Rei and his health.
