A student-athlete's typical life would be going to training then go straight to class followed by a quick break then another class then training to capped off the day. Everyone from the team is feeling all drained already from the same old routine, that feeling of collapsing anytime soon because they seem to lack already that much needed rest but then they chose this life so might as well sulk it all up and do this not for themselves but for the glory of Ateneo.
This has been going on for weeks and even though Jho goes to the gym during trainings, she still remains on the benches to just watch and observe for her injury is still not that healed yet to deal with the pressure in volleyball.
Another normal day, Ly along with Den, Jia and Mich woke up earlier than the others to prepare breakfast.
Ly: why are the girls not going down yet? By this time they'll be already having breakfast along with us
Jia: Ate Ly and Ate Den didn't you wake your roommates?
Den: tried, she won't budge
Mich: Bea?
Ly: same
She said chuckling after a releasing a deep heavy yawn
Den: someone looks 5% awake, maybe you should join Bea upstairs instead back to bed
Bea: no, she can have the room Ate I'm done with my shift
Bea was already making her way down when she said that and saw a passed out Den on the dining table
Den: I'll just wake her up when were already complete to eat
Jia: did you wake up jho?
You really have to specifically mention Jho among all of our members that are still asleep... she thought
Bea: I thought she's already awake
The others also start to slowly get out of their rooms to go down and have breakfast
Bea: Ate ells you still upstairs? Can you pls wake up Jho she needs to have breakfast before training
Ella: but I'm already starving, you wake her up
Bea: but we'll start eating once everyone's complete
Ella: I wouldn't want to waste my energy on her
Bea: Gi?
Gizelle: nope
She didn't have no choice but to go back up again just to wake her up
knock knock knock
Three loud knocks from Bea before she enters Jho and Ate Den's room to wake up the latter. When she made her way in, she saw a Bea lying down on her chest with her legs against the headboard and eyes half open. She can just laugh with what she's seeing right now
Bea: Jho wake up. You need to eat breakfast before training
Jho must have woken up when she heard the knocks because when Bea touched her, she let out a shiver
Bea: are you about to go to REM again? Not now Jho you have to eat so that your injury would get better and you'll be able to play with us again
Bea: I'm not even gonna practice, what's the use of going to training?
Jho said while her eyes are still closed
Bea: Ate Ly might let you visit the therapist and they might just free you from your rest already
Jho: I don't want to
Bea: please Jho all of them are already downstairs waiting for us before eating breakfast and food's getting cold
Jho didn't budge so it led to Bea's last resort in waking Jho up... a forehead kiss which led Jho slowly opening her eyes must be deeply analyzing if what happened was just a dream or not
Jamie: oh so your sleeping beauty now?
Jho: I am not
Bea: I'm the beast then
Jho's already up, wide awake to be exact and is slowly making her way to the bathroom to wash up
Bea: I'll wait for you outside
Bea really did wait for her as if she's guarding her in case she gets back on the bed
Jho: you didn't have to be on the look-out you know. I too am feeling hungry now
Bea: let's go
They made their way downstairs to the dining area and all are already dying to eat
Ella: Always the last to arrive, hurry up to your seats and let's eat
Den: prayer
Ella: Of course prayer, go ahead
Den: Ly wake up, we're about to eat now
Ly: sorry, prayer?
Ly started the prayer then they started to eat up after. In the middle of breakfast, Jho caught Jia staring at her like she's curious about something
Jho: speak up Jia whatever is it your thinking
Jia: Ate Ly would Jho be able to join practice today?
Jho was surprised that Jia talked to Ate Ly instead of to her
Ly: I don't know Jia but Jho maybe you can drop by PT's office to check before going to training. Bring your gym bag just in case. I'll just talk to Coach
Bea: Ate can I go with her?
Jho didn't want to but she saw the persistence in Bea's face so she didn't attempt anymore in stopping her
Ly: okay go with her in case of assistance
Jia: hope you can go back to training now Jho, I missed my front line spiker once Ate Ly's at the back
Jho: I'll try to get back now playmaker! Will work hard to catch up on the weeks that I missed on training
She said while patting Jia's head
They finished breakfast then the other members head to the gym while Jho and Bea prepare to head to therapy
Bea: I fixed your bag na Jho while you were cleaning up dishes since she's the last time to wake up
Jho: oh thanks Bea but you didn't have to
Bea: we need to get to therapy quick so that if you get cleared then we won't miss warm-up
Jho: loving the positivity, let's go
Bea's shoulders are loaded with gym bags, one for her and Jho's then they make their way to Bea's car to their therapist's clinic
