A Basketball Love { August Alsina}

Chapter 1

" EEEEEEERRRRRRR!" Goes the buzzer.

Oh. Let me introduce myself. Hi, my name is Sanaa Jasmine Coleman. I was born, by the river. No but I kinda was, I was born in one of them birthing pools. My date of birth is September 28, 1995 and I'm 20 about to turn 21! AAAAYYYEE TURN UP, TURN UP. Anyway I'm 5'6 kinda short but still the best player. I always dunk the ball in every game I play. I guess it's easy for me to do it because I'm short. My.mom is mixed with black,white and Carribean and my dad is black. I live in Baltimore Maryland ( strange place kind of) my whole life. I have a older sister named Simone who is 23 and a little brother named Aiden who is 12. My mother did drugs when I was 8 and the only way I could deal with it was to play my passion. Basketball. My mother went to rehab when I was 10 so the only way I could deal with it was playing basketball.

"Sanaa!" My BESTfriend Rain said. I met Rain when I was in the 5th grade. Her real name is Lonnie,but I call her Rain for some reason. We became best friends and I got her into playing basketball.

"WWHHHATTTTTT?!?!"

"Nigga damnnn." Rain gasp as she put her hand over her chest.

"Yes Rain." I said nicely.

"Nothing." She said walking off. I kinda felt salty cuz she called me then said nothing. Really nigga, really? "Come over here." Wendy said.

*Wendy* "Okay here's the plan-"

*Rain* " Well damn, who died and made u couch?" Wendy sighed and rolled her eyes. Nobody liked Wendy,and I mean NOBODY not even the nicest person u will EVER meet, Alyah.

"Anyway here is the plan, the ball is ours. So Sanaa gets the ball, passes it to Lisa and the You Lisa passes it to Rain a-"

" Um did I tell u to call me Rain? I don't think so. Well I must have bumped my head cuz u calling me Rain." I just shoked my head at Rain. Looks like I need to talk to Rain about respect cuz she done lost her damn mind. Shit it was the truth and she a really honest person,like REALLY, but there's a time and pleace for everything.

*wendy* "Lisa u pass to ball Lonnie and Lonnie u pass the ball to Sanaa aand she do whatever with it she does." She just hating because she can't play. She only on this team because her mother paid her way though because she didn't want her to get pregnant like her sister and drop out. while everyone else had to do tryouts and shit she just came in like it was nothing.

" Can we get out of this hot ass circle because it's hot 1. and 2.yall stink." Rain said annoyed. I punched her in her arm and she slapped the shit out of my thigh.

"Ow! Shit, Rain! U heavy handed ass fuck!" I shouted. She just laughed.

"Whimp." I smiled at her then I did the straight face -_- . Then me and Rain sat down and talked.

"That's the most dumbest plan I ever heard." She said

"I know."

" I want to change it but it would b so confusing to the others."

" Come on ladies get back on the court." The couch. Erg.

------------------------

Rain passes me the ball and I dribble it one the side line while everyone else was in the middle of the court. Dumbasses, they didn't even see me. I turn around with 9 seconds left. The 8,7 and so on. I sped up the pace and dunk the ball with 3 seconds left. I jumped down from the hoop once the buzzer went off.
