"I t-thought it was t-too l-late *sniff* and i- I- lost y-you forever"
"I'm sorry"
"W-why are you crying?"
"Because you hate me now *sniff* I didn't k-knew it would h-hurt you this bad"
"After the call, Gem kept trying to talk to me for the next two days, For some reason I felt replaced - more like I was afraid that if I confronted him,
I would end up crying or worse, I might even confess. So, I just avoided him. And to make matters worse, Dunk was always with Gem these days, which didn't help at all.
Today is the competition day. During practice yesterday, I was too distracted and wasn't paying attention to my surroundings.
I fell down, but I was okay to play. However, I didn't want our school to lose the match because of my distracted self, so I decided not to participate and withdrew from the match.
At first, everyone denied it - why wouldn't they? I was one of the best players. But told them about my sprained leg too as satang witnessed it he confirmed it and the Coach allowed me.
Even though I was sad, I was somewhat happy today, because my parents were returning from their business trip.
My thoughts were interrupted by the loud cheerings around me, and the match started.
"Fourth!" I turned around and saw Dunk waving at me and running towards me.
"Is this seat taken?" he asked, pointing at the seat beside me. "No," I replied shortly.
"Then can I accompany you?" "Sure." As much as I hated to admit it, I couldn't hate Dunk for some reason. He felt strangely warm and had a calming aura that made everyone around him feel comfortable in no time. And not to mention, he had the brightest smile - but of course, he can't beat me when it comes to cuteness.
"GEMIMI GEMINI GEMIMI!" I saw him cheering for Gem.
"PHUWIN PHUWIN PHUWIN!" That was pretty childish of me, but I did what I did.
"Yah, Fourth, Gem was the one who scored. Why are you cheering for Phuwin?" I scoffed at the mention of Gem's name.
"Well, that dude can't even stand properly; there's no way he can score." Can I bury myself? What am I even saying? I clearly saw Gem scoring a three-pointer, but Dunk didn't argue anymore, so it's okay, I guess.
I turned towards Gem, who was staring at me, and our eyes met. He smirked and winked at me, and my breath hitched. He was looking so hot in that jersey, and the little ponytail with the look on his face was no joke. He looked like a whole meal. Eww, Fourth, what the hell are you thinking? (Fot, my boy calm down)
