Chapter 136 The Decision Defining the Future 5

Even so, Jake felt he should say some heartfelt words to Harrison, even if it was not very encouraging to hear the truth could open his eyes wide and give a decision to be made by his friend, whether he would continue playing or not basketball.

"Look, Harrison, I can not really say I understand what you went through because my situation was very different from yours when I was out of the team, but I'm going to tell you what I think about all this."

"I do not know if you intend to play professional basketball or not in the future, but I say for myself, I do not like to lose too and most of all I really like basketball, so I think even if I lost, winning I would like to play the same way."

"Even if you do not become a professional in the future, I think you should continue to play in college even if you are on a team that does not have much ability to win because I know you love basketball and will only be happy If play."

"Even if you do not think about playing professionally in the future all those moments you spend playing at school or university will be an honor and a good memory in the future for you."

Harrison felt a lot better, after all, even though he had thought about leaving the team he still decided to stay, and now that things were going well and they should continue like this for two more years he did not think more than he wanted to give up playing the game he loved.

After seeing that Harrison seemed to be better Jake got his things and went home, he had to tell his mother about this victory, as the games approached the national championship Eva was more apprehensive before the games and only calmed down when he knew about the victory of Jake.

After Jake saw the smile of his mother when she learned of his victory Jake can relax at home, and so in the other week would be the state championship semifinal, even if those games are easier Jake knew he was approaching the national championship.

Although Jake was confident that he could win, he could not help but be apprehensive, even if the team did not have Harrison, his teammates should have been able to go through the third game last year in the national championship.

After all, he was well aware that it was after the fourth game that the teams would grow stronger, so he had no way of knowing how his opponent would be if they reached the national championship finals, Jake thought the team he saw when he reached the High School that was the champions.

This team was better than their current team-mates, only Jake was better off they and Mark were close to that level, of course, Jake hoped his teammates could improve greatly in those more than 4 months that they were missing to start the national high school championship.

During this week before the fourth game Jake can finally see Emily, he was a bit pitiful when he saw how tired she was, but as it was a job that needed to be done Jake had no choice.

Even so, Emily brought close to 50 places, this was after she eliminated all the seats that were not suitable for a restaurant even with a makeover and also places that had a very excessive price.

Jake was very pleased with her work and said he would call her again after everything was decided so that she could handle the contracts and the final details, Emily was very happy to be praised, incredible that it seemed that Jake was only 15 years old she respected him more than her father who had worked with companies for many more years.

So Jake no longer spent his days at home but rather in the library, he had already arranged everything that was necessary to open a restaurant, after that he would have to talk to Eva to know what kind of restaurant she wanted for everything to be ready.

But Jake wanted his mother to know about it only after the restaurant was ready and retired, so she would only have to choose the vendors, hire the staff and make the menu, but that would have to be decided by Eva.

Jake wanted to pick a place and renovate the restaurant in a way that would succeed no matter what kind of restaurant Eva wanted to open, that would normally be impossible, but Jake was confident he could do it.

He looked very carefully at all 50 places and in the end got only 10 places, then he organized the places he chose with the documents about the restaurant he had prepared.

If everything happened as it was in the document and with the location the restaurant would be ready to be opened, so he used his job skills Businessman who was Business Vision.

That was the reason that Jake was confident in the restaurant, with that ability if it was green, it meant the business would work out at least within 3 years no matter what his mother did, and if it was red it would not work.

So he just needed to change the business plan and the place until it turned green, after doing that he ended up with 4 places that gave the green light, that surprised Jake, so he decided to choose between one of these places.

Then he would leave those three other places in store for the future, so if the restaurant grew he could open branches in those places if they had not been sold to other people by then.

This was a place close to downtown Miami and had a great location, it was close to several hotels that did not provide good restaurant service for their customers who preferred to eat in some restaurant and also was not that far from the beach.

Jake saw that he could buy the place for 250,000 dollars because this place had serious problems with an accident years ago and was almost destroyed inside it, but that only made it easier for Jake to make the renovation and open the restaurant.

So he called Emily again who was surprised at how fast Jake decided to open the new restaurant, she thought it might take a month for Jake to decide, of course, she did not know that Jake had prepared everything before and had the system for help it.

Jake knew that the early years of a restaurant were the most important ones to know whether or not he would succeed and Jake had seen it be a success in the first three years, so if nothing went wrong it would be a success after that as well.

And Jake could always use that ability every year to let him know at least a year in advance if the business would have a problem.

So Emily received all the documents Jake had prepared and also ordered her to buy the place, when Emily opened the documents she was surprised, in the document she had all the plans for the reform designed by Jake and also all the things that would have to be bought to the restaurant.

So Emily just had to pay people and her work would be ready, so she was even a bit embarrassed for taking so long to do something simple as finding the places to shop.

So Jake had solved the problem of the restaurant, he had to wait at least 3 months to find the place ready, it would be just before the national championship began, Jake also decided where he would do this that could be his last trip with Eva.

After all the holidays were coming and Jake still had not learned to speak Japanese and not write, so he would have to choose another country to make the trip this year, and next year Eva would have to take care of the restaurant and so could not go with him anymore on travel.

So Jake was preparing the rest of the week for the fourth state championship game after Jake told Harrison he seemed to have forgotten all the old issues and was much better at training.

When he had time Jake always asked Mark to teach him how to make Center moves, the first time Jake asked for it Mark was surprised and scared thinking that after Jake grew up a little he wanted to be a Center now.

If that happened Mark was worried that Jake would take his position, only after Jake promised he would not do what Mark agreed to teach him, it was not surprising Mark was afraid, Jake already knew how to play as PG, SG, and SF, if he learned some techniques with Mark he could play also as Center and as PF.

So Mark was startled to think that Jake could have the position on any of his teammates, of course, Jake would play much worse if he was in another position than PG and SG, but even he playing worse was better than many of those positions.

Of course Jake was not thinking about doing this, he was thinking of learning the best to use his great strength to score points if necessary, and Mark was the right person to teach him that.

Mark thought that Jake could in a few years have mastered the position if he learned, it was not so wrong because the basics of basketball were the same for everyone, so the experience of playing in a position was important to a player.

Jake could play very well both SG and SF was not because he was an incredible genius but it was that in those more than 3 years can play more than a thousand games in the space of imaginary training, in that thousand games he had experiences playing as a PG, playing as SG and also as SF.
