Football practice was intense today, and I was trying to stay focused. Zayshawn was hyping everyone up, but I couldn’t shake thoughts of Ki’niya. She was on my mind constantly, even during drills.
“Yo, Jamaica! Stop daydreaming and get your head in the game!” Coach yelled, snapping me back to reality.
“Right, my bad!” I shot back, trying to shake off the distraction.
After practice, I caught up with Zayshawn. “You think Ki’niya is still mad at me?” I asked, rubbing the back of my neck.
“Man, she just needs you to be real with her. Just go talk to her,” he advised, sounding more like a therapist than a teammate.
“Yeah, you’re right. I’ll hit her up later,” I said, feeling determined to fix things.

Cheer practice was the bid today, especially with the upcoming game. I was pumped, and my mind was on Zayshawn. He had asked me out, and I couldn’t wait to see how our date would go.
“Okay, girls, let’s tighten up those routines!” our coach shouted.
As we practiced our stunts, I caught Ki’niya’s eye. “You good? You’ve been quiet,” I asked her during a break.
“I’m just dealing with Jamaica being a mess,” she replied, sighing dramatically.
“You need to put your foot down, girl. You deserve someone who’s gonna treat you right,” I told her, trying to boost her confidence.
