After the exam was over, everything wrapped up pretty quickly. Before anyone noticed, it was finally time for them to go to Sapporo. It was still quite early in the morning, yet just like usual, Minami was already gushing over her son over everything.
"So, you have your pocket money?" She asked, fixing the messy collar of his jacket.
"Yes, Mom."
"What about snacks? Don't forget to share it with your friends, okay?"
"They will just take everything before I try even one of them, you know that, right?"
"Oh, hush you! What about spare clothes? Enough for three days, right?"
"Yes, Mom. Already in the bag."
"Your new shoes?"
This time, Higo's gaze softened as he showed the shoe bag in his hand. "Here, I have it."
It was a present that his mother brought for him after conspiring with Kumiko. It seemed that he was the last one to know here, since the girl didn't really inform him about anything to prepare for the game in the Sapporo Dome.
