❝Do you really think that fate brought us here?❞

❝No, I was brought here to play basketball, and you're here because you somehow ended up owning me.❞

In which two former childhood best friends from Oakland, California find themselves crossing paths on an unexpected stage: the NBA.

He is the team's new star point guard, and she is making her own headlines by becoming the youngest co-owner of a professional basketball team. They soon discover that the bright lights are both a blessing and a curse, but it may not be as daunting as it seems with the help of one basketball team, several awkward moments, and the same two people that became best friends years ago.

"So this was all just a game to you . . .this whole time, you pretended to like me in order to humiliate me in front of the entire school?" An air of melancholia surrounded me, eyes watery like never before. "Were your feelings for me ever real?" There wasn't even a trace of an apologetic expression on his features as he tucked his hands in his pockets, before he gave a nonchalant shrug. The sudden urge for revenge became a prominent priority. He regarded me passively. "It's not my fault that you fell for me in the first place." he justified as he advanced my way, closing the gap between us. Unstably, I strode backwards on the concrete. ". . .stay back." I whimpered. "You're nothing but cold hearted." ·•● Two years ago, Emery Roy was tragically exposed to what some could call an intense betrayal all thanks to the originator - Dean Darnell. Everything went downward spiral after they started dating. What appeared to be a match-made in heaven, turned from blissful to disastrous the moment Dean humiliated Emery in front of the entire school, leaving her completely heartbroken. So to avoid him at all cost, she did what any person would do: transfer school. Fast forward two years later. What happens when she's returning back to Roosevelt High, for the first time during senior year? She only has a few tasks: avoid Dean and face her obstacles.

I quickly rushed over with my hands ready to catch Yesha the same time as they stepped back, when she dropped in my hand I gave her a smile. "Thanks, bodyguard" she said holding onto me tight. "How could you Asia?" I said angrily, the same time the boys came over. "When I want something and things are getting in the way, I get rid of them." She said looking at me and Yesha with a smirk. "Why do you want that slut anyway?" She asked, as Yesha gets out my hand. "Thanks that's a real nice compliment, but if you may remember it takes slut to know one. Which means you've either went around selling yourself to the bums on the street or you walk around the school begging for it.

"So, let me get this straight. You stomped all over his paperwork?" She started. "Not intentionally, but yes," I confirmed it. "Threw a drink in his face?" She added. "Expensive red wine." I described. "Rammed into his car with yours deliberately?" she counted on her third finger. "Um...I'm not proud of that one," I said cringing. "And called him offensive names?" She ended the list and I winced. "Twice." I specified. "And you're still alive?" She blinked, looking genuinely surprised. "Geez, don't be dramatic or anything..." I frowned at her hyperbolic statement. "Maybe he's keeping you around to get revenge." She suggested. Possible. I wouldn't put it past him. "I didn't know alright!" I exclaimed. "Let's hope that excuse is acceptable.." She was merely amused.
