When I heard the word ‘basketball’, he instantly pop into my mind. It was like the word is connected to him.
Narinig ko, napadpad siya rito dahil sa pagtanggal sa kaniya sa team sa dating eskuwelahan. Narito siya para sa basketball, he came to play for his passion. The dedication he have for this is just more than the dedication he’s pouring on his studies.
Pero kahit gano’n, effortlessly, matalino talaga siya. Hindi ko kailan man narinig na bumagsak ito o nawala sa top three. He’s indeed the standards when it comes to these things.
“Go, Laude!”
Malakas pa ang cheer nina Felize at Reign kaysa sa akin. Laude and I didn’t get a chance to meet before the game. Hindi ko siya nakita kahit maaga kaming pumunta kaya medyo kanina pa ako nakanguso.
“‘Te, uupo lang? Walang balak mag-‘go, baby’?”
Hinampas ko si Reign. Mai-issue lang kami lalo kapag ginawa ko ‘yon. Wala namang kami, hindi naman siya nanliligaw but I admit, I really really like him. Hanggang doon lang ‘yon hangga’t hindi niya ginagalaw ang baso.
