Baddest in town

Chapter 55

I've been ignoring LaMelo ever since the day I found out about the shit with Desiré, I just can't stand being in the same room as him even though we share one. I'm not letting it effect me to much when I'm  with LiAngelo and Isabella tho, we don't have much time together as a group because LiAngelo has to practice a lot and LaMelo is out of the game for some time cause he fell on his back which caused an injury so he has to go to the physiotherapist instead of practice.

"How you doing at home with school and basketball?" LaVar asks as we're watching LiAngelo at practice.

"Fine I guess, Ion really like the people in this school cuz everyone beside my friends try to get closer cuz of the boys. They ain't talking to me for me, they just talking to me hoping to become friends with Lonzo or the others. But basketball ain't that great, the thing that irritates me the most is the way my coach wants us to play" I tell LaVar.

I sound like such an annoying ass depressed girl, I'm always complaining about everything that has to do with school.

"You just have to ignore that, no matter where you go there will always people like that. They try to benefit from your fame, but you can't let that stop you from doing what you do" LaVar says.

I nod my head in agreement.

"Now about basketball, Zo went to some of your games to see the problem cuz you texted me before about the way you guys play. He told me there are several factors which causes y'all to lose, first thing is that most of those girls either don't care or don't work hard enough. Second thing is that your coach draws up a bad play most of the time, making a great scorer the in bounder and shit. That ain't right so I'm gonna have Dmo talk to your coach about this, cuz if nothing changes there is no need for you to be on that team since they don't make you a better player" LaVar says.

"I hope she gon listen, my friend and her mom once tried to talk to her and she didn't take it well" I sigh.

"She knows you the reason why y'all don't lose by 30 points like they did before" LaVar says.

"What if her coach doesn't listen?" Isabella asks.

LaVar wants the best for all of us, and he takes shit very serious when it comes to our future. I'm pretty sure that if this school is not able to help me grow, LaVar will transfer me again to another school.

"Than we'll just have to look for another school with a better team, she can't get better if she plays in a raggedy ass team like this"

Told ya.

I wouldn't even mind going to another school cause I'm really annoyed with the people at this school, I love my friends but it's not like Chino Hills. I was devastated when I had to leave them behind, that's not the case here. It will suck not seeing them everyday but I mean we can facetime, but let's just wait till Darren has talked to my coach.

"You don't wanna play for a team that ain't on the same level as you, only thing they'll do is bring you down with them" LaValle joins the conversation.

"True" I nod.

LaVar gets up and walks to the court, probably to talk with the coach or LiAngelo.

"I hope you can stay at that school, I like going out to LA to visit you and do stuff" Isabella smiles.

"Yeah I bet you do, I like it too. But I think I'd like it more if I was your age, and living on my own. Living with Zo and Dmo is all fun and stuff until they act like they my dad, they forbid so much shit it ain't even fun no more" I say.

"They do it because they love you" Isabella chuckles.

"Aye when are we goin to the water park?" LaMelo asks as he walks up to us.
