You're my Home (Jema and Ella)

Game On

Jema's POV

Maaga akong nagising dahil siguro sa sobrang excited at kinakabahan at the same time. Opening ng PVL open conference today and may laban agad kami with the Petro Gazz Angels, our considered biggest rival. Marami man akong pinagdaan nitong mga nakaraang buwan pero I won't let it get in the way, ayoko maging unprofessional at maging unfair sa team ko by not being myself. Nakikita ko paano nila binibigay 100% nila sa mga games namin and including trainings kaya yon din ang gagawin ko.

Beep beep.

One message from Ate Cutie.

Good morning Jema, ready for today? I know kinakabahan ka so as me but as I've said always believe in yourself and your talent. See you later. I'll pick you up?

Me: Hi ate, good morning too. Yes medyo kinakabahan pero eto kinakausap ko ang sarili ko to condition my mind heheh. Ahmm no need na ate, magdadala ako ng sasakyan.

Ate Cutie: Talaga! marunong kana magdrive? Galing mo naman. Ang dami mo namang surprises, baka meron pa dyan, share mo na para hindi na kami ma susurprise pa 🙂

Me: Wala na te. Ah meron pala, strange feelings 😅☺..

Ate Cutie: Huh ano yang strange feelings na yan?🤔

Me: Wala ate, joke lang. Sige see you later, mag breakfast kana 😘..

At itinabi ko na ang phone ko.

Fast forward to the game.

Ang intense ng laban, palitan lang ng scores and set. First set went to Petro Gazz, second to Creamline then third set to Petro Gazz and now in the fourth set, scores tied at 24 each and serving is Creamline.

Alyssa Valdez serving, received by Bang Pineda to Chie Saet and a quick set to MJ Philips and she scores. Hindi napaghandaan ng creamline blockers yon. One more point and the game goes to Petro Gazz.
Grabe ang preparation na ginawa ng Petro Gazz for Creamline. Halos hirap makalusot ang mga spikes nila. - Mela

Ou nga Mela, para tayong nanunod ng finals.- Anton

Back to the game.

Soltones serving,
Ohhh it didn't cross the net, what a wrong time to commit an error.

Tied at 25 each, Pangs Panaga serving, nice serve but a better reception by Soltones at the back, Chie Saet with the set to Myla Pablo, oh blocked by the combination of Celine Domingo and Jema Galanza. Creamline scores.
Nagwawala na pareho ang mga fans ng dalawang team.

Will Creamline extend the game to 5th set? or we will have an upset today? Let's see.- Anton

Set point and It's Jia Morado's time to serve. Jia serves, a good reception by Bang Pineda, Saet to Pontillas, great attack but what a dig by Kyla Atienza, then Jia sets, and down the line attack by Jema Galanza and she wins the set.

Nakita mo yon Anton, fearless attack by Jema. Galing talaga ng batang to. And we're going to the 5th and final set.

Carrying the momentum from set 4's win, the creamline girls never looked back. With Tots and Jema Galanza's big game and Alyssa Valdez clutch points, they won the game 15-10. Jia was chosen as the player of the game with 28 excellent sets, 2 points and 1 ace. Carlos with 21 points followed by Galanza with 19 and Valdez with 15.

Dug out

"Great game girls, hindi kayo nag panic, you retained your composure all throughout the game kaya I'm so proud of you. We still have a long way to go but this is a great start. We will bring this momentum to our next games. Congrats to us" Congratulatory and encouraging words galing kay coach Sherwin.

"Thank you coach, definitely we will"- Alyssa

"And Creamline?"

"Happy"- Everyone

Still Jema's POV

We cleaned ourselves and nag ready na para umuwi. While nagliligpit ng mga gamit, lumapit si Kyla sa akin na may dalang bulaklak.

"Naks Ky, may pa flowers agad ah. Galing bah kay Anghel yan? ang sweet naman" sabi ko habang inaamoy amoy ang bulaklak.

"How I wish beshy na para sa akin to at kay Angel galing, baka hinimatay na ako sa kilig" natatawa nyang sabi.
"Sa'yo yan day at may pa message message pa pero hindi ko binasa ha tiningnan ko lang tas nakita ko sabi great game beautiful" dagdag pa ni Kyla habang hawak ang dibdib at umaaktong kilig na kilig.

"Hala sya hindi pala binasa ha, nakita lang daw. Anyway kanino bah galing to beshy? in fairness ang ganda, mabango chaka in fairness pa rin ang ganda ng penmanship" pag aappreciate ko.

"Dineliver lang yan dirichu dito sa dug out paabot daw sa'yo. Teka may sulat pa sa ilalim" at sya na nga po ang nagbasa ng naka attach na card.

"Sunflower coz whenever I wake up and see the sun, I see flowers as beautiful as you" binasa ni Kyla yong iba pang nakasulat.

"Oh mygadd beshy ang sweet"- Kyla

I admit na amaze ako don sa nakasulat  plus ang ganda pa ng pagka arrange ng flowers. I really can't help not to smile.

"Jemalyn Jemalyn. Hoy kanina pa ako usap ng usap dito nasa dreamworld kapa pala. Oi ha ngayon lang ulit kita nakita nag smile ng ganyan. Ahmmm. tara na oi umalis na sila lahat" pagyugyog ni Kyla sakin.

"Huh ah sige sige tara na. Wala may naisip lang" palusot ko naman.

Kanya kanya na kaming uwi. Ang gaan ng pakiramdam ko, siguro dahil nanalo kami and I played well and also because something made me smile. I posted pictures of our team and thanking God for the victory and guidance plus inilagay ko din sa IG story ko yong flowers with a caption,

"Whoever you are, thank you for making me smile today"
