Skylar's POV
I hold Maya close as I think of everything going on right now, I hope that mothafucka that did this to Maya died after, Shawn's mama handled everything and she feels it's safe but I don't
"Skylar....head in the game...your up" My father yells causing me to shake my head and I nod before sitting Maya down on the bench next to where my father is
"Stay here and play with your dolls ok babygirl" I say and Maya nods before grabbing her dolls
I look to my father with a glare before running onto the field, I get into position next to Jordan and I see him give me a look before facing forward and getting into position as well
I look to Maya who's playing with her toys and watch me a little too, I hear Jordan say hike and I run my route but sloppily causing the person I'm guarding to catch the ball
"Come on...sloppy sloppy sloppy, is this the team that won the division championship huh..play like it" My father says and I run my hands through my hair and just nod
"And you....stay focused" My father says to me as he points, I hold back my anger and walk over to Maya and bump his shoulder in the process causing the team to ouuu behind me
"Hey babygirl......you want some water" I say and Maya nods before getting up and attaching to me immediately, I hold Maya close and pick her up before walking to the water cooler and getting a cup for her
"Skylar we need you back on offense let's go" My father says and I ignore him and grab Skylar's water before walking back to her stuff
"I gotta get back ok but I'll check in" I say tenderly as I hand her the cup of water
"Why can't I go with grandma" She says and and I sigh heavily
"Grandma is busy today but you'll see her soon" I say and Maya nods sadly before grabbing her toys, I look at her as she just innocently plays and feel a pit in my stomach form the events that happened
I kiss her forehead and turn around to go to the field, I see my father looking at me with his arms crossed, ignore him and go to the huddle
As he talks about how we've been playing I just keep thinking of what happened and I can't shake the anger
I stare at the ground when suddenly I feel a presence in front of me causing me to lift my head and see my father standing there
"You listening Skylar" He says and I don't respond and just stare at him coldly
"I said are you listening" He says more sternly
"Yes coach...I'm listening" I say in a monotone voice
"Are you committed to this team" He asks and I look around at the other players who are awkwardly standing there, I look to Maya who's playing innocently on the bench before looking back to my father
"One hundred percent committed" I say and he looks at curiously
"Then prove it" He says before looking away and continuing to talk and thank us for his win for division coach of the year and saying that Spencer won division player of the year
I hold my head high as I feel the pain in my chest, I wanted to win that award....
"Alright hit the showers, Spencer..Skylar stay behind" My father says and I nod and watch Maya as the team heads in, some wave to her and she waves happily back but I feel my uneasiness come in
