โNice gameโ Japan smiled and offered to shake Netherlandsโs hand after the game was over. It had been rough, and while he would never lose faith on his Blue Samurais, he wouldnโt lie saying it was easy and would make sure to congratulate them.
Countries had to sit next to each other during games, according to the rules set by the FIFA, so they had shared private seats. The good news is that they had been friends for a long time, so it wasnโt as akward as last World Cup when he had to share with a girl he didnโt know and next to a quite angry Spain (never would he have guessed he had such a somber side to himself ). Germany and him, being friends, had been a happier time
But with Netherlands, Japan wondered if he should have celebrated less when Nakamura and Kamada scored. Considering that the smoking area was too far away, his long-time friend had to go completely smoke free for the whole second half as it was too far away to go in the hydration time.
Soโฆhe wondered if his mood was sour. Back in South Africa, it was his team who had lost after all.
Tying was good for Japan, but for the European countryโฆ.
////////////////////////๐ณ๐ฑ๐ฏ๐ต/////////////////////
Tying was practically losing. Why all that hard work, if it was easily matched ? Heโd need to have a stern talk with his Clockwork Oranges and made sure they gave a better performance against Sweden.
Tim couldnโt wait to get out and have a smoke, he was dying without it, stupid anti smoking rules. Maybe he would get a beer too, it was too damn expensive there and Americans offered some shit quality drinks.
โNice game!โ Kikuโs voice took him out of his thoughts.
Now a perk of tying had been simple: even after having been friends for so long, he would lie if he was asked when had he seen Kiku smile so brightly. Hell, the black-haired country had actually jumped the second time they scored.
It was quite the cute sightโฆ.he accepted the offer to take his hand
โIndeedโ but only because of the smaller country. Actuallyโฆโwould you care to go grab a beer ? I think we can find something better than whatever theyโre selling here โ
Japan nodded โIt would be a pleasureโ
โItโs on me โhe made clear. Hey, now that they were in Americaโฆ.โwould be fair for me to pay for the dateโ
