Time Back To First Autumn

CHAPTER 17

AUTUMN

The manager of our volleyball team brought a box of mineral water and he placed it down as he took the bottle one by one. Kumuha naman si Tritus at ininom ito saka bumaling ang kaniyang tingin sa aming dalawa ni Cradience. The match is very intense and it all started when Cradience hit Tristan's face by a volley ball.

The coach showed a white rectangular board to us. The white board has black buttons and it is magnetic that's why it sticks on the board.

All of members of the team started to pay an attention to our coach. We all just stood up around him and waiting for him to demonstrate the new plan.

"Dahil nandiyan na si Demirous, kailangan nating magbago ng technique sa paglalaro. Hindi pala, ang gagawin natin ay magdadagdag ng technique mula sa dating technique na sinanay natin. Sa ngayon, hindi muna maaaring gamitin ni Cradience ang ginawa niya kanina dahil madali lang iyon basahin ni Demirous. Kahit hindi niya gamitin ang kaniyang kanang mata, kaya niya pa rin bumasa ng mga galaw dahil doon siya nasanay. Kung gusto natin makuha ang pangalawang set ng laro, ipagpatuloy ninyo lamang kung ano ang sinanay ninyong styles. Itong bagong ituturo ko ay gagamitin lamang kapag kailangan na talaga."

Sa panimula niyang pagtuturo sa amin naramdaman ko agad na may panganib talagang dala ang captain ng grupo nila na si Demirous. Hindi lang siya pamilyar sa akin, kakaiba rin siya. Tritus and other members of this team watched the previous match of their team. They won against the Strong Wall Borders or the team from Persephone University. Demirous used his last triumph in the match which is his right eye.

They won the set straight. They mercilessly didn't let the other team to score. Kaya naman sa sinabi ni Tritus at ni Kivione, kapag ginamit na ni Demirous ang kaniyang kanang mata, tapos na ang laro. Kaya naman, posibleng gamitin niya rin iyon ngayon dito sa match. I just don't know how did Auvinumn beat him in volleyball? What technique did he use in match?

Auvinumn is talented than me.

He predicted the actions of his eye. But how? Only my comatose twin can answer that question. Demirous is expecting for me to fight him in this match without knowing that I don't have an idea about the technique he used in their match before. How could I possibly know? That's too way impossible.

"But coach, what new technique will be our triumph in the match?" Yohan asked while leaning his left arm on his twin's shoulder named, Yanite.

"Kailangan pa ba niyon? Baka hindi naman din magamit kasi hindi natin sinanay iyon bago ang match," Yanite commented who's sitting beside of his brother. Kivione responded a quick a hesitating nod.

Coach Hermes flashed a wide, assuring smile. Then, he touched the black magnetic button located behind. It is the position of Libero.

The coach moved the libero at the center.

"Malamang hindi mo alam, Tritus, kung bakit ko ito ginalaw sa gitna. Iyan ang magiging galaw mo pagkatapos tirahin ng ace ang bola." Iginalaw naman nito ang posisyon ng ace at inilagay sa harapan ng line. The black line is resembling as a net.

If I'm not mistaken, our ace here is Yohan.

"After Cradience toss the ball, the libero will run towards the net. Magpapalit kayo ng puwesto ni Auvin kaya naman si Auvin ang magsasalo ng atake na ititira ni Demirous maya-maya," dagdag pa nito na nagpalito lalo sa amin.

"Wait, can you please enlighten us? Why would we exchange a position if I'm not the libero?" I confusedly asked.

The coach of this team chuckled. "Kasi, hindi kakayanin ni Tritus ang perpektong tira ni Demirous kapag siya ang tumira ng bola. Ang pagtira niya ng bola ay kayang tumama sa loob ng linya at tatalbog sa labas nang hindi mo inaasahan. Auvin can do that. In fact, he can receive the ball three times stronger than Demirous. And that's the reason why they defeated before in match."
