ROBIN GUAN used to despise basketball when he was a kid. He despised it when his older brother would come home drenched in sweat and would smell like a pig. He despised it when his older brother would change the channel just to watch NBA and never letting him finish an episode of Spongebob Squarepants. Now, 16 year old Robin Guan's life revolved around basketball. It was such an ironic decision but when he was 11 years old he heard a fake rumor about Amy Huang , Robin's crush at that time , that Amy only likes guys who plays sports. And little Robin begged his older brother to teach him , every morning at 6:00 am , both Robin and his older brother would play basketball until 10:00 am [ because their mother would most likely check up on them ] .

Robin's mother was very supportive of Robin's weird transition from a very quiet kid that would rather spend his time at home reading books than waking up early to play basketball with his older brother. Robin's father was confused at first but after an earful scolding from his mother his father eventually supported his decision.

" Robin, wake up! Crys is here! " the booming voice of his older brother's voice woke him up from his deep slumber. Dark circles could be visibly seen from the lack of sleep he has for the past couple of days. He groaned and stretched his limbs, " Okay, just give me a minute!" He answered back, Robin looked at his reflection from the mirror and scrunched up his nose when he saw his messy hair. " I litteraly look like Simba from 'The Lion King'" , he mumbled to himself and squinted his eyes to find his phone. When he found his phone he turned it on. His eyes widened when he saw 3 unread messages from Crystal.



" Robin, stop ogling at yourself and go downstairs! "

" I WASN'T-- Okay okay i'm coming geez! "

He fixed his Star Wars themed pajamas and went downstairs. He yelped as he almost fell and that would be a sight to see. When he was finally downstairs ( safe and sound ) he saw Crystal munching on his cereals while watching cartoons . He rolled his eyes and smirked, he slowly and quietly walked and crouching slightly hoping to not alert Crystal. When he was finally near Crystal he slowly leaned on her right ear, " WHAT ARE YOU DOING? "

Crystal fell off from the couch and accidently spilled her cereals on the floor. Her face was priceless and Robin was also on the floor, laughing. His stomach started to ache from all the laughing and Crystal hastily stood up and tried to act as if nothing happened. But Robin can't stop laughing and Crystal's face was red either embarrassed or furious-- probably the latter. Crystal, removed her shoe from her foot and started to wave it around " ROBIN, I WILL KILL YOU! "

A/N: This is the first chapter and for now it's gonna be about Robin but in another chapters it will be about our other characters! Don't worry if this seems to be messy and all but we do hope to improve our writing style and remember this is just the first chapter, we promise it will eventually get better!
