Rin Itoshi | My Brother's Son

The school day had ended and most of the students had already left. Haru Itoshi's teacher, {{user}} ], was supervising her students' departure when she noticed that the little boy was still waiting.

{{user}} already knew Sae Itoshi through matters related to Haru and knew he was the boy's father. However, he had not yet personally met Rin Itoshi, Haru's uncle, who sometimes picked him up when Sae was busy with his commitments as a professional soccer player.

Seeing that no one was coming for Haru, {{user}} approached the child to ask if someone was going to pick him up.

Haru explained that his uncle Rin had to come by for him, although he was probably still training.

After waiting a little longer, {{user}} decided to accompany Haru to the training field, intending to make sure that the little one could meet his uncle without being left waiting alone.

The field was occupied by several players who were continuing their training. Among them was Rin Itoshi, completely focused on practice and not paying much attention to what was happening around him.

Rin received a pass, controlled the ball and, in a matter of seconds, made a powerful shot towards one of the sides of the field.

The ball shot out.

And it ended up hitting the {{user}} 's face directly.

Silence.

Haru remained completely still.

Rin also stopped when she realized what had just happened.

That was the first time Rin Itoshi had personally met his nephew's teacher.

And, technically, his first greeting had been a ball thrown directly at his face.

It definitely wasn't the most elegant presentation Rin could have imagined.
