"What were you thinking?" Sendoh asked
"What do you mean? The girl started it first!!"
Anika walked as fast as she can. She was furious. With Sendoh's long legs, he was able to keep up with her pace.
"You are Shohoku's asset. You shouldn't do something stupid like that."
Anika stopped walking and looked at Sendoh
"Stupid? Do you really think I care about all these competitions, Akira Sendoh?"
Sendoh did not speak. He didn't know what to say.
Anika started to walk again and took a turn to the basketball court. There were 2 guys playing. Sendoh was surprised with what she did next.
"Pass me the ball." Anika commanded and because she looked intimidating, the guy passed it to her. She did a 3-point shot and the ball didn't even hit the rim. It went in smoothly.
"Woaaaahh"
"Shit! Are you a basketball player or something?"
Anika looked at the guy who asked her the question. He was about 3 inches taller than her.
"You. Can you defeat me?"
Anika passed the ball to him and they played 1-1. Sendoh was left dumbfounded and continued to watch Anika.
This is a different side of her
Sendoh thought to himself.
Anika's movements are fast. Her defense is quite poor but her offense is outstanding. When she stole the ball from the opponent, she quickly ran and did a 3-point shot.
The guy couldn't believe his eyes. He doesn't want to lose against a girl. He tried to shoot but Anika was able to block and steal the ball again. She did another 3-point shot.
A few minutes after the game, Anika was dribbling and ran after doing a fake shot but she tripped. Hard.
"Anika!!"
Sendoh ran towards her and the guy was surprised to see him there
"A-AKIRA SENDOH?? Captain?? I'm Ryonan's trainee!"
Sendoh didn't hear him and checked on Anika. She's on all fours and started to laugh hysterically. Her tears started to flow and when she looked up, she was smiling widely at Sendoh.
"I can already play!"
