Chapter 2 - A Normal Day 2

So in all the breaks at the beginning Jake would pass on a court doing his 2 and 3-point shots, and when he got tired he would pick up the ball and play with it a little while throwing it to the wall, so this is the training he did, as Jake did not have to run it took much longer to get tired.

It was a good way to cool his head and de-stress, and he also liked basketball, it was a great way to forget the past.

And then he began to find more things that he liked to do, first he started acting at home, from a young age Jake was always interested in the theaters at school and also in the movies, he saw in movies and on television.

Maybe it was because of his Middle School influence that he was a little art oriented, but Jake always wanted to be an actor, but he always had a lot of things to do and never had a chance to take the time to do it.

More now that he only had the job in the company and then did nothing else at home Jake started looking for acting classes that he could do at home and spent a good time at it, and was quite skilled at acting, and even helped in his work, because he could express himself better and speak better, he could also control his expressions more.

After he started looking for some stock market files and business and business management classes that Jake wanted to do in college, he mostly surveyed the stock market, the most profitable trades since the 1980s to the present day several companies that they started devalued and that later who invested in them became a millionaire, the stock market bubble in 2000, so he learned a lot about what to do and what not to do.

The classes when he had more time went to open classes at nearby universities to learn about things he could not do alone.

So it was for a few years, and at that time Jake also managed to make a lot of money by investing in the stock market doing what he learned, he did not become a millionaire because he was too conservative and missed several opportunities to earn money, but also because of this he never lost money.

He had to buy his new home to build a block to play whenever he wanted because the open he could not attend when it rained and also to adapt the house to be more suitable for him who was handicapped.

In addition, Jake did not spend money on almost anything, after that as Jake did not want to hire many people to stay in his house, in addition to a company to do cleaning Jake also learned how to cook.

He wanted to try various dishes from many countries, even exotic dishes, so Jake learned how to make various kinds of cuisine to eat, and after a few years, he was cooking so well that he had no more interest in going to restaurants.

Plus he always continued to work in his company which he started before his mother died, there was a good place in which he had enough colleagues.

He just did not make friends with either of them, because they inadvertently looked at Jake with pity, and he did not like it, so besides going out to drink and talk sometimes, Jake did not have much contact with them.

Especially after the time when his co-workers tried to arrange a surprise meeting for Jake to amuse himself with good intentions, more because of this event everyone in the company found out that Jake was now powerless and could not have a family.

If it were not for Jake building a strong mindset with all the things that had happened to him in all those years, he would probably have stopped working at that company after that shame.

So Jake also decided to learn to speak other languages, which was a d.e.s.i.r.e he always had, although it is legal to speak languages ​​of countries other than his own, it is a very boring and difficult thing to do, mostly alone as Jake tried to do, if not was for now the internet era with many videos everywhere they could not.

So to give himself an incentive Jake decided that when he could speak almost fluently and read all the words of the language he would visit the country that language is most spoken.

He started with Spanish which was the language that his mother's family spoke to Eva himself did not know much, so after a while, he managed to learn and on his vacation from work he made a trip to Spain without anyone knowing.

He visited several cities and sights and went to the restaurants to try out how the local food was, it was a relaxing holiday.

So Jake came back with a calm mind and determined to do it every year, the next language Jake learned was French because he liked many French stories and books, so he had more material to study.

So at the end of this year Jake went to France and this time he was only in Paris, he visited many famous shops and bought some perfumes for him, but he was a bit sad because in those shops had more women and couples.

Plus it was a good trip too, the next language he learned was Italian because he wanted to travel there to try the food and wine so famous.

After a year of learning Jake traveled to Italy, he went to several restaurants and even bought some suits on this trip, he also took to order some wines to be sent by plane.

After he learned German because he liked the sound that made that language, so at the end of the year he traveled to Germany, he would be happier if he could buy a car, more like he could not drive it just visited several places.

This year Jake was planning to learn Japanese because he liked cooking and he also wanted to read several stories that were on the language before being translated.

So Jake after leaving the visit of his mother's cemetery in the morning went to the restaurant that she worked to eat the waffles and she would take it to him when he was younger, it was not the same now the more the memory was the same.

Then he went to the community center to see the children and young people playing basketball, he came here several times, it was good to see children having fun to improve their state of mind, he was even friends with several coaches who came here, he learned a few things about the training of children.

Although he was very positive with his thoughts, Jake also had ideas that did not help to complain about things that had already happened, everyone has many problems as well as he has, but as he struggles he managed to conquer many things in his life.

Now on his birthday, the only thing that made Jake upset was that he was alone, of course, he could call other people, but the truth is he had no one to spend these more festive days.

Today was a day that Jake, who had no one, preferred to be alone, so he could take the day to think about the past, to remember good and bad things and also to plan a future, because soon the second half of his life, although he can not raise a family, how many people are not in the same situation as him and are happy with what he has.

There are many people who have even less than he has, and still are not complaining like him, today on his birthday day Jake enjoyed spending alone to create the strength to spend another year.

So Jake thought it was time to go home, the day was already dusk and the sunset was on the horizon, Jake gave a smile and pushed his chair out of the park, Jake wondered whether or not to call a taxi.

More decided against, the truth is that since he suffered his accident on that bus, Jake tries to avoid as much as possible to get into vehicles, he thought that it was not legal the idea of being stuck in a place that he can not leave at any time.
