CHAPTER 10

"Ladies and gentlemen, we are now live here in the Araneta Coliseum, as we witness the greatest rivalry in Philippine sports battle again in the finals for the 7th straight season in UAAP women's volleyball! This is...Ateneo vs. Lasalle Finals game 3!"

The arena was filled with cheers both from the blue and green side.

"Let us first meet the starters. First, from the De La Salle University Lady Spikers!"

While the lineup of DLSU was being announced. The Ateneo Basketball Team just arrived at their respective seats.

"Ang lapit natin sa bench ng Lady Eagles." Jolo laughed.

"Sino kaya bumili ng tickets?" Isaac pretended to be thinking as all of them looked at Thirdy.

"What?" Thirdy asked in confusion.

"Gusto mong malapit sa bench ah." Gian wiggled his eyebrows.

"Para malapit sa kapatid ko. Parang hindi mo rin gusto makalapit kay Dani no?" Thirdy fired back.

"Ooooh. Back to you!" Anton joked.

"And now, let's meet the starters for...the Ateneo de Manila Lady Eagles!"

"Ayan na!" Gian screamed in excitement.

"And wearing jersey number 14, Bea de Leon!"

"Let's go Bea!" Thirdy shouted.

"And their libero is number 1, Dani Ravena!"

"Go Dani!" Gian screamed while Thirdy clapped his hands.

"Kawawa naman si Dani, pinalakpakan lang ng kuya niya." Matt teased.

"Minsan iniisip ko kung si Bea talaga kapatid mo eh." Mike joined the conversation.

"Tumigil nga kayong mga Nieto. It's starting na." Thirdy rolled his eyes playfully.

"And Bea de Leon closes out the first set with a bang!"

The lady eagles took the first set.

"Grabe ang galing niya." Thirdy said in awe.

"Paps, yung bibig mo naka-bukas." Tyler laughed.

"Ewan ko sayo."

"Hi guys!" The Rivero brothers greeted the team.

"Uy bro!"

"Musta?"

"Naks naman, naka LaSalle shirt pa rin oh!" Thirdy teased.

"Still, green pa rin kahit lilipat na ng school." Ricci laughed.

After a little chitchat, the siblings already left as their mom was finding them already.

The second set immediately started, and the lady spikers dominated it.

"Babawi yan next set!" Gian hopefully said.

"Bili lang ako pagkain. I'm hungry na." Thirdy asked permission as all of them nodded.

Thirdy was in line to buy a sandwich when a girl called him.

"Thirds!"

"Uy, Billie! Musta na?"

"Ok lang. Ikaw?"

"Still doing great naman." Thirdy smiled.

"Nothing beats the rivalry no? Ang daming tao." Billie said after a moment of silence.

"Yeah. Classic Ateneo-LaSalle." Thirdy agreed and started eating his sandwich.

"I remembered when we used to watch it together." Billie reminisced.
