This year my town basketball team it was in the A category and they brought professional players. I didn't miss a match, but I never had the chance to see him up close. my girlfriend's mother used to work in the team so we always had access to the locker room. in the season finale i went to watch it with tina. This was the moment I saw him for the first time up close and I kept looking at him and he was looking too. Then I saw him and asked "can we take a picture" of course he said yes. when he held me in his arms i felt my stomach tighten then he looked me in my eyes and burst out thank you. That's it. Our first acquaintance. It was Saturday so Tina and I had decided to go to a nightclub with music,when we got there and ordered our refreshments i saw one of his teammates enter the nightclub and after a while he also appeared and I didn't stop looking at him.We kept looking at each other the whole time. He was looking at me as he sipped his drink and my heart was pounding. At some point I decided to go outside with Tina to get some fresh air then when I passed by him he looked at me and I was looking at him as if there was no one else in this space as if a look said a thousand words, after that we went out and  I saw him coming out of the nightclub and looking left and right as if he was looking for something . He looked at me and stood there looking at me Tina turned and looked at him and then he left. he was gone for good as it was the last game of the season. I was miserable for the rest of the night. What if I was the one he was looking for at that time and when he saw Tina he regretted it?
