3 years later...
Star's P.O.V
"Zion"I call to my 3 year old son
(Picture of Zion in media.)
"Yes mommy?"he says, coming into me and Zach's room
"Mommy is about to go to practice so I need you to be a good boy for daddy okay?"I say
He nods and crawls onto the bed next to Zach.
"Hey little man"Zach says
"Hi daddy"Zion responds
I smile at my boys. I grab my duffel bag. I kiss both of them on the forehead.
"I'll see you two later, okay?"I say
"Okay"they respond in unison
I smile and make my way downstairs.
Time to get that work in.

"Alright Lynx, time to finish the second half of this practice"coach Brown says
We all huddle up and listen to the drills that coach is giving.
It takes a lot to be in the WNBA.
But it was worth it. It's very easy for me and Zach to work.
During his off season, he's watching Zion. During my off season, I'm watching Zion.
Anyway, getting straight to the dribbling drill.
You know what pissed me off? How Myra is now in the WNBA. They put her dumbass with the L.A. Sparks.
We play them tomorrow night. It won't be a hard game, if we just focus and play hard.
And I thought the Tulsa Shock and the San Antonio Stars would be hard teams to play.
"Come on ladies pick up the pace! We don't wanna be like the Timberwolves in their last 3 seasons!"coach says
I started to pick up my pace. Bypassing each yellow cone like it wasn't there.
So many crossovers came out of that.
"That's how you do it Saunders! Come on! Show them what a real Point Guard looks like!"she exclaims, blowing the whistle
Yup...I'm PG.
After finishing our dribbling drill, she had us work on defense and offense. Which occasionally became a scrimmage.
Blue shirts vs. White shirts.
This may be tiring...but at the end its all worth it.

"So how was practice today baby?"Zach says
I drop my bag by the door and walk over to him on the couch.
"Tiring"I say, kissing his cheek
I sat next to him.
"Where is Zion?"I say
"In his room"he says
I nod. I lay my head on his lap as he rubs my back. I saw he was watching WNBA highlights.
"Really?"I say
"What? They showed my baby more than once so I had to"he says
I giggle.
"We play Myra tomorrow night"I say
"I'm just very excited the NBA got rid of her while they had the chance. She would've ruined mankind"he says
