But if it was to say he got any better Jake could be happy about it, it could be true that his young body might have affected his personality a little in those years, also had the fact that Jake had suffered so much in his past life and have been very antisocial.
Everything about this life of his was very different from what he experienced in the past life at the same age, he had other opportunities and had another mindset to make different and more correct decisions, not to mention that with his mother not working and happy it was all different.
Jake also had more friends, more money, more work, and even in love relationships he had more experiences than in 40 years of his past life, it was a different and happier life than Jake had.
That day Jake received calls from all his sponsors who were very happy with Jake getting this gold medal, now Jake was even more beloved in America as a sports hero than before.
Jake's nickname was spreading and his fame as a winning athlete was also increasing, because Jake was different at just 18 years old, winning so many times and still playing basketball, even people's interest in marathons and athletics, in general, It was increasing.
The television audience of this World Championships in Athletics was the largest in history and by far the difference, as Jake was running in the marathon the world audience at the World Championships in Athletics peaked.
This was good for everyone, and even the athletic associations in the United States and the world were spreading more about Jake's achievements in promoting the sport in general, which was great for Jake's sponsors.
If the internet were more used in these years this disclosure would be much greater, who was happy with it was also the sports agent of Jake David Falk and who was sad about it was Nike who missed the chance to reach an agreement with Jake before offering a better offer.
Now Jake was a sports idol and was sure to star in the NBA, so Nike's next offer to Jake would have to be a few times bigger to get a deal with him if they didn't lose that chance to the other sports companies of shoes.
Many companies were also thinking about how to get a sponsorship deal with Jake, some even had some unofficial conversations with David Falk about it, but he was clever and didn't confirm anything.
That's because David was confident that Jake's value would increase greatly in the coming years until he entered the NBA, at least he could wait until the end of next college basketball season if the Tar Heels team won again Jake's value would increase even more.
Of course, this was all a hypothesis and none of this could happen, but if Jake played worse this season even if he had a contract signed earlier the company could just forget about that deal when Jake joined the NBA.
Unbeknownst to Jake and David, Alan's company and John's company also planned to offer a new sponsorship deal with Jake in the NBA, even though Jake said he would not renew this NBA contract, they intended to offer Jake a millionaire offer and also appeal to Jake's loyalty that has already been proven in those years of contracting with Tiffany and Clara's companies.
In those years that they had a sponsorship deal with Jake, they had more sales than ever before. Last year the company sales increased by almost 50 percent, so for a big company like theirs that was too much for them to miss out on.
Big companies like theirs usually had to invest millions a year in sponsorship just to stay in the market with competitors as rich as the leading companies in the market, even if they spent more than 10 million to increase their sales by hundreds of millions of dollars would be very worth it.
But that would be hard to come by because the biggest companies in the industry in this area had already realized this and could offer an even bigger offer than they did to Jake, this was something neither Jake nor David Falk could expect.
After all this Jake can spend the next few weeks with his mother just relaxing and talking, he talked to Joseph and Matthew a few times in those weeks, the sales results had not come out, but Matthew already knew it was better than the sales of the last year which excited him and Jake a lot.
So Jake was much more relaxed than anything that happened this year and last year, so by the end of the month Jake was ready to go back to university, this time he knew everything he had to go through that he could hardly relax until the month May of next year.
Eva wasn't so sad about Jake going to university this time either, she knew this was best for Jake and that soon Jake would be back again to spend a few months with her, in fact, Eva was a little relieved because with Jake at university Lola would be quieter.
When Jake returned from university Eva hoped that everything would be resolved and that Lola could finally accept that she couldn't be with Jake anymore, because Eva had a feeling that a lot would happen next year in Jake's life.
She felt that Kate who seemed to be far away, for now, would go into Jake's life at once next year and would not go out anymore, as a woman Eva understood what Kate felt more than Jake knew and even though she wasn't famous as Kate was she knew the heart was the same for everyone.
When Jake returned to university he could meet friends in the dorm who had already returned, they no longer had to stay in the dorm this year because of a university obligation, but they all got so close that no one in the room wanted to leave the dorm.
In fact, they thought it would be Jake who could come out of the dorm because they had already heard that Jake received millions of dollars a year of sponsorship and so should be very rich, but when Jake said no, no one else thought about leaving.
Zack was the most relaxed after returning to college because even though he had stayed home on this vacation he didn't have to travel because his home was close to the university.
So for Zack, nothing changed in this vacation, Jake was very pleased because it seemed that Zack ran almost every day in those university vacation months, even without Jake to inspect Zack still ran because he found he loved it.
Now Zack could run up to 30 km a day if he worked hard and in very good time for an amateur runner, this was much more than other amateur runners needed to do to run a marathon just thinking of completing the marathon.
Jake had promised that if Zack had a satisfactory training time he would take him to run a marathon, so this year he thought and saw that he couldn't take another date to run a marathon in North Carolina.
"Zack, you did very well in your training this year, you may have done more preparation than was necessary because of my training, but even if you ever think about giving up running this training will be great for your health."
"I know that Jake, I appreciate everything you did for me, I know how busy you are and yet you took some of your time to talk to me and bothered to prepare this training for me and encouraged me to run."
"Even though at first it was hard to have you running with me it gave me the strength to carry on and now I know I can say that I love running and have no difficulty running up to 20 km a day without getting tired."
"It's true Jake, if Zack can get a girlfriend even though he's ugly like that is because he has an athletic body for training with you."
Listening to what William said, the three of them laughed together, Zack always played with each other and now didn't even care much that Jake and the others played with him that way, that's how their friends were.
"As I promised you if you want you can go with me to Chicago to run the marathon this year in October, I think you are prepared and this is my gift to you, it is my favorite marathon and I think you will enjoy running there too."
"Of course I want, you can count on me to go there with you, thanks, Jake."
"You deserve this, and you William, want to go with us there?"
"No, I'm not even going to run with you, I'd rather watch on television you win and Zack be ashamed to go to Chicago and not finish the marathon."
The three of them played some more and then went to rest, Jake had not yet returned to training with the basketball team and just the next day would return to do the daily training with Zack.
Aaron was not in the dorm because he was training hard now, after completely recovering from the injury and doing the physical therapy exercises Aaron felt he was doing as well as before the injury.
Now he was training harder because soon the university would be testing to recruit more athletes for the university's American football team, so from what Jake saw from Aaron's training he didn't think he would have trouble joining the team again.
Jake highly respected Aaron who after a year away from football had returned after an injury and what the university did to him, Jake didn't think he could do that and would definitely go to another university after recovering.
Jake was thinking that he might help Aaron with training a few times, after all with his physical statistics and his training, Jake was better than some university quarterbacks.
