Mika's P.O.V
This is the day for Finals Game 1. And heck I'm so nervous! I dont know what to do. Matataranta ba ko or what? What a life.
Papunta na kami sa coaster namin para makapunta sa MOA Arena. Okay i need to focus. I need to forget about my problem dun sa Alexine na yun and just focus sa game. Yes, pinoproblema ko pa rin yung babaeng yun. Paano naman kasi, parang stinastalk niya ko. After training i will see her sa labas ng sports complex. Kahit nga may training kami nakikinood sya eh. Sometimes I'll see her sa Henry Sy building. Yung totoo, multo ba sya? -___-
"Daks, focus ka muna okay? Dont mind her. Tapusin muna natin tong season then you can think about it na ulit." Sabi ni Ara sakin. Sakanya ko talaga nasasabi lahat. Alam niyang I'm so messed up right now.
I sighed, "Sana nga di maapektuhan yung game natin ngayon. Lalo na ako ang nagllead." Napayuko ako. Uggh Mika, focus!
"Kaya mo yan. Andito pa rin naman ako eh. Syempre di ko kayo papabayaan noh. Kakausapin ko pa rin kayo pag mga timeout." Ara smiled a little and hugged me.
"I'll be strong. Para sa team." I said and put on mu earphones. Pampa relax. Kaya mo toh Mika.
•••
We're here. Gosh punong puno MOA Arena. Kinakabahan ako. Pampakalma guys please? Huhu.
"Okay girls! Mag warm up na tayo!" Sabi ko at lumabas na kami ng court. Sigawan ang fans ng makalabas kami. Focus Mika. Focus.
After some drills, it's the Lady Eagles' turn para mag warm up kaya dun muna kami sa gilid and nag sstretching.
While nagstretching ako, I saw a familiar face sa right side of the crowd. It's her. Gosh. Ano bang atraso ko sa babaeng toh? I looked at the other side and it was kief. Andun sya smiling at me. I smiled back. He mouthed 'goodluck' amd i returned it with a smile again.
After a couple of minutes, the game is starting. Hindi kami makapag focus kaya we're behind. Di kami maka score. Naka focus naman kami but parang kulang pa. I'm trying to cheer my team mates up telling them na it's only the first set. "We need to bounce back in the second set girls. Kaya natin toh" I said. Hay Mika baka ikaw ang wala sa focus? I shook my thoughts.
"Girls.." Tumingin kami kay Ara. She's telling us to come near her and so we did. "Focus girls. I know you girls can do it naman eh. Dont just do it for me. Do it for our school." Sabi niya and she smiled. The buzzer rang and it's time for the second round.
The sea of blue was very loud. I know I'm doing my best. I'm doing what Coach Ramil's saying pero bakit parang wala talaga? Tapos I will always look at her. She's smirking uggh.
Second set. Still Ateneo got it. "Girls, kaya natin toh diba? Wag tayong sumuko."
The third set is good naman nakakabawi na kami. Dikit na ang laban. Just 1 point at magiging tie na kami sa Ateneo. Kim sets the ball to Camille but it was blocked. And what we saw next was unexpected.
Camille is down. She's holding to her knee. The PT asked her if she can stand. The crowd was quiet. Slowly, Camille stood up, the PT is guiding her. And the game continued.
But too bad. We lost the first game. Uggh Mika you let your team down.
"Dont blame yourself daks. It's not your fault." Sabi ni Ara sakin as we headed back to our dorm.
"Saan ba ko nag kulang?" I asked and let out a deep sigh. As much as I want na di isipin ang problema ko para di ma apektuhan ang laro ko parang walang effect.
"Babawi tayo." Sabi ni Ara. Konti lang kami sa coaster. Dahil yung iba sinamahan si Camille to check her injury.
My phone vibrated which means someone is calling.
It was kiefer... I answered it.
"Hello?"
"Babe! I mean, Mika! I miss you! Cheer up na ha? If you're thinking na kasalanan mo kung bakit kayo natalo, then its not your fault. Okay? Cheer up! I love you!" Im trying to cheer up kief. But i cant..
"I miss you too.. Konting tiis na lang kief." I smiled a little. Konti na lang kief. Sasabihin ko na sayo na something or someone is bothering me.
He sighed, "I miss hugging you. Well magpahinga ka na! I love you! Ingat palagi ah!"
"I will. I love you and I miss you too! Ingat din. Konting tiis na lang ha? Kaya natin toh. Bye!" And I ended the call.
Pagsubok lang toh. I wont let this ruin anything in my life.
