Weekly Short-Short Note | Reconciliation Theater

Tamesue confessed everything to Oda.
He told him about how he felt angry when he was told, "What are you doing, Tame!", and all the emotions that accompanied that.
Upon hearing this, Oda thought he was a troublesome guy. He even considered blocking him on LINE.
After all, he, a person with name recognition, was shining a spotlight on a minor sport like the 400-meter hurdles and even talking about it passionately.
He just let his passion get the better of him and blurted out, "What are you doing, Tame!". He thought it would be a hassle to get along with a guy who would dwell on things so much over just that one remark.
However, the World Athletics job was attractive to Oda, and he wanted to continue it for a long time. In that case, he couldn't just dismiss Tamesue's existence.
So, he decided to smooth things over by saying, "That's just something the impressionist Takahiro Yamamoto says on his own."
Tamesue thought that Takahiro Yamamoto was able to capture Oda's casual attitude in his impression.
