It was a magical New Years Eve at a vacation resort in the mountains. Gleaming white snow covered the ground, stars sparkled in the crisp, clean air, and everyone was beginning to get in the party mood.
Everyone, that is, except Link and his step father, Daruk, who were still on the basketball court, playing one-on-one. They were covered with sweat, but they were having too much fun to stop.
Link had the ball, and he was doing a good job of getting around his "dad". After all, Link was on high school basketball team. Not only that, he was the team captain. He had the smooth moves and explosive action of a real star.
But Daruk was more than just Link's step dad. Daruk was also the basketball team's coach. So Mr. Daruk gave his step son advice as they played.
"Keep working left, Link," Mr. Daruk said. "The guy guarding you in the championship game won't expect that. You'll torch him."
Link nodded, breathing hard. "By going left-" he said
"He'll look middle, you take it downtown," his dad-and coach-explained.
Link nodded again. Then he spun past his step dad, jumped, and sunk a reverse layup. The ball whistled cleanly though the basket. Nothing but net!
His dad grinned. "Sweet."
Link grinned back. Nothing felt better than playing basketball when you are in the groove!
They could have played all night, but just then Link's step mom walked into the gym. She was Wearing a sequined party dress and clearly had things other than B-ball on her mind.
"Boys? Hello?" she called Once she got their attention, she went on. "Did we really fly all this way to play more basketball?"
Link and his "dad" glanced at each other slyly. They knew she didn't want an answer for that question, but they gave her one anyway. Link nodded while his "dad" said "Yeah."
Links step mom gave an exasperated sigh. "It's the last night of vacation. The party remember?"
Actually, they had both totally forgotten the big New Year's Eve party that the resort was holding, but they knew it wasn't wise to admit that.
"Oh, right, right,"Mr. Daruk said Quickly. "New Years Eve." He hesitated, then asked with some fear, "Do we have to wear funny hats?"
"Absolutely," she said firmly "And we're due in half an hour. Link, they have a kids' party downstairs in the Freestyle club."
"Kids' party?" Link asked quietly. That made him sound like a toddler!
"Young adults," his "mom" quickly amended. "now go shower up."
With heavy sighs, Link and his "dad" did as she said.
As Link took one last glance at the basketball court, he thought, The championship game is in couple of weeks! I should be practicing, not going to some stupid "kids' party"! Besides, how much fun could hanging out with a bunch of kids possibly be....
