"AGAIN!" The whistle blows again. It was a workout practice type of day suicide runs for the first half of practice. Today coach was off he was making us run more than usual and making practice early in the morning.
"AGAIN! I SAID DO IT AGAIN UNTIL IT'S DONE RIGHT!"
Another set of ten was done everybody looked like they were about to die even me laying on the wall trying to catch my breath the gym doors open it was the cheerleaders coming in and god damn we got the best-looking cheerleaders in the city. And of course, Sasha catches my eye
She gives me those seductive eyes of her. The girls go on the side pulling out their cheer mats and warming up.
"Boys. Stop staring and go take a break I'll be back."
Coach walks out of the gym as me and the team go to the benches to relax I sat down on the bleachers Sasha comes in front of me still on the mat stretches in front of me. She goes down into a split
"You enjoying the show. Lorenzo." Tiny says crossing her arms
"Oh yeah..." I didn't notice she was talking to me until I turn my head and saw her mean mugging me.
"See! This is why I don't like you or want you around Kendi. You're a slut."
"One. Ouch. Two-" I was cut off
"Who's Kendi?" Sasha gets up
"Oh, so you're keeping kendi in the dark now. Boy, i-"
Terry grabs Tiny before she got to say anything else.
"Who the fuck is Kendi Lorenzo. I swear to god if you are messing with another girl while being in a relationship with me I'll kill you and her."
Some of the boys started to laugh and make jokes.
"We're not in a relationship Sasha. I never asked you out."
"Yet."
"Ten laps girls." Her coach says
"After practice, we will talk about this Rose."
"Look like somebody in trouble," Ant says laughing while standing above me grabbing my shoulder
"Who?" Kendi comes and sits near Ant
"Lorenzo and his gi-"
"Shut up Ant." I turn around before he could say anything else
Ant sits down next to Kendi and hugs her.
"Alright then. Kendi you wanna go out this weekend."
Before Kendi or Me could say anything coach walks in with my father, Kendi pushes Ant off before her dad could see.
"Lorenzo. Sitting down when you could be practicing. I pay too much for you to be just sitting down being lazy"
Here he goes with his bullshit.
"I'm down because I needed a break."
"NBA Players don't need a break."
"Yeah, they do Dad."
"Back and the day me and coach gold were the"
"The best on the team, the unstoppable two." I and Kendi both said
We looked at each other noticing we said it at the same time. I gave her a little smile
"I'm going to take a wild guess this beautiful young lady is your daughter Gold."
"Yeah." Her dad chuckled "My flesh and blood."
'Hello, sir! Nice to meet you I'm Kendra but everybody calls me Kendi."
Kendi gets up and goes to greet my father and the first time I have ever seen my dad shake somebody's hand who isn't his business partner. I didn't know Kendi wasn't her real name. Kendra. Kendi fits her more.
"Nice to meet you Kendi. Oh wow, you just look like your mother."
Her smile disappears
"Thank you, Mr.Gold...I get that a lot.'
"Me and your parents go way back. And call me Matthew. Why don't you and your parents come over tomorrow night for dinner and could all catch up around 6:30."
Ant taps me on my shoulder I turn Sasha staring into Kendi's back with a death stare crossing her arms breathing heavily just getting off running laps. Oh shit.
"That sounds great Matthew we will be there. Alright, boys come on break is over let's see these plays." Coache says hitting his clipboard as we get up going towards the court Sasha grabs my arm.
"I'll talk to you about it later babe I swear."
"You better Lorenzo you have some explaining to do.
I walk off towards the court I have an hour to make an excuse about Kendi and fast before Sasha does some dumb shit that'll get Kendi hurt and me in trouble.
