Chapter 143 Time of Changes 5

Seeing that Jake still did not understand why even after so many indirect Jenny just sighed, she did not want to say it directly because it was one more thing about her parents, but she saw that she would have to speak more directly.
"Jake, my parents are quite relaxed with me, they do not care much about whom I date and do not control my life much, but what happened to my brother was a big shock to them."
"They trusted my brother a lot and we're sure that everything would happen the way my brother would be the perfect heir to the family name, but you know what happened."
"Even though they're pretty liberal with whom I date, I've never introduced anyone to my parents, do you know why?"
Jake already understood everything, but he still did not want to believe it, and he wanted to hear everything from Jenny to see if it was true what the last things he said so far were true.
"The reason is that my parents think that when I introduce someone at home, these people can be my future husband, and so they evaluate more seriously the person I am and depending on what they are they may even have this relationship ended."
"Before I never had someone very serious that I dated so you would be the first, I do not know if I love you, but I really like you."
"But my parents have already told me that I can only marry a man who comes from a good-name family or a man who has a good position in a company like my father."
"I know you intend to be a professional basketball player in the future, even if you make a lot of money, my parents would never accept that I should marry you, they think about my future and stability in the first place."
"That's why I thought we could wait until after college after you graduate you can change your mind about being a basketball player."
After hearing all that Jenny said he felt a little powerless, Jake was dismayed by all this, he had seen it several times on television but never thought it could happen in real life.
Jake was sure he wanted to be a basketball professional in the future, he thought of even a running athlete going forward as well, but he could not work in a company every day, not least until he finished his NBA career here more than 20 years maybe.
So the reality of Jenny's family would be impossible for them to be together, Jake was very proud of his mother and loved her very much, but he knew that he came from a poor family so much that his mother worked until she died in her past life.
Jake was no longer poor, he had the sponsorship he received every month and his actions invested, he now had his mother's restaurant, but he did not think it was enough for Jenny's family.
Maybe after another five years when he became a millionaire selling his shares, they would change their minds, but when that happened they would try to convince him all the way to quit his basketball career and work for his company.
And Jake did not want any problem like this, he wanted a family that supported everything he did and not that they tried to convince him to give up his dreams.
Even though Jake wanted to hear what Jenny thought, if she thought differently from her parents and supported Jake in his dream, Jake would take the pressure from her parents to stay with Jenny.
"I wanted to know what you think about it Jenny, do you think the same as your parents?"
"I do not know if I think the same way, but I want to feel safe in the future, maybe you can play basketball until you finish college and then change your mind, I heard Joseph say that his grandfather who has a big company thinks you have a lot of future in the business world."
"So it may be that after another four years you change your mind after all basketball is not a guaranteed thing, you can always get hurt, so I think we could continue together until you finish university and then we can decide together."
Seeing that Jake realized that Jenny thought the same way her parents, maybe they thought differently, Jake always thought from the beginning of the dating on the possibility of marriage, but Jenny just wanted to take advantage of now.
And Jake realized that Jenny never supported him in basketball games, so maybe for her, it was just a sport that Jake could do for a few more years.
So Jake looked at Jenny and took her hand, maybe Jenny was the woman he liked most in two lives besides his mother, so it was hard for Jake to do that.
"Jenny, I really like you, it has not been since the first meeting, but it has been increasing gradually, but knowing that although we are together now we have a completely different vision for our future together I think we should end."
"Even if I like you, I do not want us to spend any more time together knowing we're going to split up later, because if I liked you more, it would have been more difficult."
So holding hands Jake saw that Jenny started to cry and just nodded, so Jake dropped his hands and wiped the tears around her eyes, got up and kissed her head and left.
Even though he knew it was not right to comfort someone you made him cry, but he did not want to remember the person he liked crying.
So Jake left and told her mother everything, Eva was angry at first when she learned that Jenny's parents did not accept Jake because of this, but after Jake said she could understand she only hugged her son for a while.
After Jake went to the bedroom, he wanted to be alone thinking a little, as Jake told Eve he understood, although he did not accept or agree he understood that different social class people thought differently.
Even Jake thought that if in the future something like that happened to his daughter he could act the same way, but he would only know in the future, but what Jake really thought was if the people close to him were like that too without him knowing.
As Liza tried to cover Jenny, Jake imagined she knew about the situation with Jenny's parents, maybe Liza's parents were the same way, Jake was deluded by the fact that they accepted Joseph well when he met the family of the girlfriend.
But Joseph was also wealthy, so he could not know if they would have rejected him if Joseph was poor, and even Matthew and Oliver who treated him so well could have done so too.
After all, Jake was just a friend of Joseph, that's why they accepted so well, after all, having a poor friend was not a problem, Oliver even when he first met Jake, feared that he was a profiteer.
Jake remembers that only after Jake helped Matthew with that advice that he invited him to his house, it shows that Matthew had some reservations with Jake before.
After today Jake realized the reality that he was 'in the world of the rich' before he had not noticed anything different, but now he realized that it was different, even at school apart from his teammates who also had scholarships Joseph was his only friend.
At school he started Middle School several people besides Joseph tried to talk to him, especially after Jake joined the school basketball team, now he realized that it was even different.
After that Jake got a few days depressed, but after a week he returned to normal, soon would be his first national championship game and he needed to be in good shape, the system helped keep his body in shape, but keep the mind well it was with him.
Besides, even if he had discovered some things he did not know before, he did not change anything, after all, he was still friends with Joseph and his family still treated him very well, that was enough for Jake.
At school, Jake also did not want other friends and he never really liked Liza, so Jake realized that besides Jenny nothing changed and that there was no back, so Jake returned to train normally with his team.
After all, there was little time left to start the first game of the national championship, in training Liza was looking at Jake as if he had done something wrong by ending up with Jenny and Jake as he had always just ignored her.
At the break from school Jake told Joseph to warn Liza not to talk unnecessary things to her if she did not want a fight, Joseph knew that Jake broke up with Jenny and so he just said he understood.
Jake knew Liza must not have told the real reason for the separation to Joseph and just invented some motive, and Jake was not in the mood to talk about it like Joseph because the dating was over already, it did not matter anymore, Jake did not want Joseph to be strange to him.
Joseph must have talked to Liza because in the next training Liza just went back to ignore Jake as he did before, Jake's teammates knew they had an unfriendly relationship so they did not say anything and did not dare try to berate the captain who was angry these days.
After that, Jake could also realize the oddity of the fact that none of his teammates had a girlfriend, it seemed they found out about all this before him, but it was a game day so Jake did not want to think about it anymore.
