Taylor's POV~
It all started on Saturday, Valentine's Day. But I had no Valentine of course. I was in Raleigh, North Carolina with my mom, visiting my godmother & god sisters, Amanda and Laila. We were at Amanda's basketball game and so far her team was winning.

"Come on! Pass to 13!" I yelled at Amanda's teammates. Ik it's probably wrong to yell at a bunch of 8 year olds, especially when I'm not their coach, but I'm very competitive with almost everything....soo.... yea. Anyway, this game is actually pretty cool right now. We're up by two points, it's 14 to 12 and hopefully it'll stay like thi- oh god. The other team just tied with us.
"So Taylor, what do you want to do in college? Maybe basketball?" My godmother asked me. "I think so, yea. Playing has to be waayyy more fun than watching"
"Really? Well I'll have to call my friend that offered to coach you, and see if we can set something up. ", says my mom.
*buzzer sound* the game was over? Already? Oh dang, WE WON!!! The ending score was 20 to 16. On the drive home, Taylor thought about all the opportunities of becoming a basketball player, and she got excited.

And that's how it all began...
