Antara's POV
I am good at all subjects except one, Physical Education. I don't know why PE is one of the subjects here in school. It's not that the quizzes and tests are hard because I can handle that but it's because I'm bad at sports like I suck at sports.
"There will be a girl's basketball game at the quadrangle tomorrow. All of the girls are forced to join. This will serve as your grading periodical exam."
Not fair. Totally not fair!
I'm really in a deep trouble right now. How could this serve as our periodical exam?! How can I top in this school if I can't play fvcking basketball.
"Now. Class dismissed." our adviser stated.
Padabog akong lumabas ng pinto. Anong gagawin ko ngayon? Shit this!
Hindi ko na inantay si Cryscel na lumabas ng classroom. I rushed into our room and change into our gym clothes. After minutes of changing, pumunta na ako ng gym at nagsimulang magensayo. I started the practice by shooting the ball into the basket. You can do this Antara, HWAITING!
First trial, failed.
Second trial, failed.
Third trial, failed.
And the saga continues. Me trying to shoot the ball then ball bouncing off somewhere and I try to get it again and again and agaaaaain. AaaaaaAah!
This is driving me nuts!
For the last time, I positioned myself holding the ball focusing it to the basket goal. I am about to shoot it when-
"You're doing it wrong."
Due to frustration I ended up yelling at him, "What?!"
"Woah woah woah. Easy darling."
Fvcking Tyson.
He walked on my way and moves behind me. I frozed as his body brushed against mine. He held my arms positioning them to shoot. "You're holding the ball wrong. This hand is positioned to shoot the ball up while the other hand is for the support."
I feel my cheeks heat up because of his sweet gesture but I try to shrugged it off. "Trust me on this." he whispers on my ear that brings shiver to my entire body.
He repositioned his hand and put them on my waist instead, "Now shoot."
With all my strength, I shoot the ball making a small jump to do it. I couldn't believe it. I fvcking shoot the ball! I did it!
I turned my head on Tyson and hug him tight, "I did it! I did it!"
He just smirked at me wiggling his eyebrows displaying his cockiness.
"You're welcome pumpkin." he replied while patting my head softly.
He then faced me with a serious looks on his face, "Now let's start our real practice."
"W-hat do you mean?"
"Nag eensayo ka para makalaro sa basketball game bukas right?"
"But-
"No buts honey. You can't play basketball just by shooting the ball into the basket."
"Fine. Teach me then."
We spent hours on practicing all the skills in basketball. Since I'm just a beginner in sports, he tried to be easy on me and teaches me every skill with patience. I always messed up things but Tyson is there to teach me those things over and over again. Hindi din ako makapaniwala na paano niya natagalan ang ugali ko. Well, Tyson is really a professional basketball player.He is the type of player who knows what he's doing and capable of improving his abilities.
After my practice with Tyson, he offered me a dinner in Gerry's Grill inside our school. There are many cafe and fast food chain in our school in case if students are so done with the foods in the cafeteria.
It's Tyson's treat so I ordered much food because who doesn't love free foods? I ordered grilled squid, fried shrimp, calamares, chicken barbeque and and too many foods to mention.
"Ba't hindi ka umorder?" tanong ko.
He smiled, "Share tayo."
"Whaaaat?! No way! Mine is mine. I don't share what's mine!" I said while keeping the foods that I ordered earlier away from him.
He chuckled, "Okay okay. I'm just kidding don't be so aggressive. I also ordered mine so don't you worry."
"Good." bulalas ko.
The night went like that me shoving foods into my mouth while Tyson laughing at me because I look like a damn pig out for a meal. We also talked about things like a lot of things. Sharing how our days went like and so on and so forth.
