My system allows me to copy talents-Chapter 554: Misunderstanding

To make up for thinking such lowly of his mother, Hiro decided to spend some money on buying a gift for her. After all, he had plenty of it, so, he could spend as he wished.

"What use piling money when you can't even use it?" He said determinedly.

However, the sparks of determination didn't last long as soon he was met with another problem- he didn't know what to buy.

Frowning, he thought about it, "But what should I buy?"

As he began to ponder, his expression became complacent. For a while, he thought about every possible thing that'd interest his mother. But even after racking his mind for a long, he couldn't come up with a conclusion.

Unable to come up with a conclusion, he let out a frustrated sigh, "Sigh! Just what would she really want? Jewelry?"

"Jewelry sounds good. But it'd do more harm than good once she finds that I spent money recklessly. I'd probably get scolded."

As he thought about the outcome, he couldn't help but feel scared. So, he dismissed the idea of buying an expensive-looking gift.

Although he didn't want to gift her anything cheap, he couldn't buy something extremely expensive either. As he thought about it, he found himself in a dilemma.

"Maybe, I should just ask someone else."

Since he wasn't able to come up with a decision, he thought about asking for someone else's help. But again, he found himself in a tough situation- he didn't know whom to ask.

A few people came to his mind.

So, he picked up his phone to contact those people.

Buzz! Buzz!

The phone buzzed as he waited patiently for the person he was calling to pick up the call. "Hello, Hiro."

A feminine voice sounded as the call connected.

"Hey, Ayumi. Do you have a moment?"

Without beating around the bush, he directly went to the topic he wanted to talk about.

"Umm, tell me what do you want to talk about?"

"Umm..., I was wondering if you wanted to gift someone, what would you gift them?" Hiro asked albeit sounding a bit reluctant.

Upon hearing the reluctance in his voice, Ayumi couldn't help but feel something strange about it. Why does he sound so weird? It was as if he was selecting a gift for someone important. What could make him so nervous?

Wait don't tell me, he's going to confess to somebody.

Ayumi's eyes perked up as she came to a realization. Her fluffy snowy white cheeks became red as she entertained the thoughts. But she couldn't be sure about it.

So, she asked for confirmation, "Is it for a girl or a boy?"

'Ahh right! I didn't tell her whom the gift was for.'

As Hiro heard her, he realized that he hadn't disclosed the person whom he wanted to gift. So, he immediately answered, "It's for a girl."

He merely assumed that she was asking about the gender of the person. He didn't detect any abnormalities in her question.

Ayumi's already red face became as red as a tomato as she heard Hiro's response. Now, she was convinced that he was going to confess to somebody. After all, he was still in his teens. So, it was only natural for him to be attracted to a person of the opposite sex.

Also, it was around the time that he found a girlfriend.

As Hiro's manager, she should have actually shunned him for his decision to have a girlfriend. But she was much aware of Hiro's personality. So, she worried that he'd be a loner for the rest of his life.

With that concern in mind, she felt elated to find that he was actually interested in someone that's not related to football.

So, she was supportive of his decision.

"What type of gift would you want to look at? Something expensive or something humble?" She asked.

Although she was supportive of his decision if he answered the former then she'd dissuade him from getting into a relationship.

Expensive gifts at such a young age would only indicate that the person is only after his reputation and wealth. And how could she allow Hiro to fall victim to such a person?

She desperately hoped that he'd respond the latter.

"Something humble."

The response brought great delight to her face and she couldn't refrain from smiling. Her eyes glistened with joy and excitement at the same time her heart thumped rapidly.

It was almost as if she had found great joy.

With a cheerful tone, she said, "Then how about you buy her a dress or a necklace?"

As he heard her, Hiro couldn't help but ponder. Upon pondering, a moment flashed in his mind. It was a memory from when he was in elementary school.

In the flash of memory, he saw his mother, her silky smooth hair cascading down her shoulder like a beautiful waterfall, her willow-like eyes seemed like a pair of amber pearls that glowed with faint radiance under the sunlight, and the white dress she was dressed in fluttered like the wings of the butterfly spreading a soothing calm.

She appeared like a goddess who had descended from the heaven.

Thinking about that moment brought great joy to him and he couldn't help but feel nostalgic.

It was like the moment had occurred only yesterday. It was so vivid and lively.

A subtle smile formed on his face as his face lightened up without him realizing it.

Hiro had made his decision.

Ayumi was still talking about other options but he had already made his decision.

"Thank you, Ayumi. I have made up my mind," Hiro said in a cheerful tone.

A subtle smile escaped Ayumi's lips as she answered, "Glad to be of help to you."

Then Hiro hung up the call. It was still afternoon, so, he couldn't head outside immediately. Also, he didn't feel like ordering the dress online.

Just as Hiro hung up the call, Ayumi whispered, "Best of luck, Hiro."

"It'd be a little awkward wandering around the girl's section alone. So maybe, I should ask a girl to come with me. But I can't ask Mom, since the gift is for her. So, who should I ask about

it?"

Hiro began to ponder.

"Ishikawa-"
