Chapter 8 - Chapter 8

3RD PERSON'S POV

IN the end, Elyse got a medal of Archery for the third day Intramurals. Yep, there's a daily winner.

Wasting three days, no one challenged her. Automatically, she will get the trophy again.

Even Hailey showed better skills last three days ago, the school did not invited her to participate so she's exempted.

Tuesday, the last day of Intramurals. Malayo pa lang sa gym ay kitang kita na ni Elyse kung gaano kapuno ng mga tao ang gym para sa inaabangan nilang championship ng basketball. Well, Steinfield University is the only school they invited, the past few days were just warm-ups for the championship and today, they will determine who's really the champions.

She now joins Yaz and Evonne where the game takes place.

As soon as they enter they will be deaf due to the noise of screams and shouts.

They caught an injured Steinfield University player loaded out of the car. Then the sub player arrives.

She was facing his back so she can't see his face. It just says 10 and H. Collins printed at the back of its jersey shirt.

She looked at the scoreboard and saw that the scores were draw. The last quarter is ending.

The noise grew even louder as the number 10 hit three points. Greek University scored next. They only changed scores with just ten seconds left. The number 10 was dribbling the ball. He is still far from the court and there's only one way to win the game, to get a three-point shoot.

10...

9...

8...

7...

6...

5...

He can't pass the ball to his teammates because they are securely guarded and so is he.

4...

3...

Looks like he got no choice.

2...

He immediately angled himself and the ball.

1...

Then he shoots it.

Right after the ball was shot, the horn sounded.

A loud noise roared in the gym.

138-137

In favor of Steinfield University.

'Well, he's good.' Elyse thought.

The number 10 looked at her and she gasped in surprise.

"Nerd?" She said herself. Hank is still wearing his eyeglasses like it is really precious.

The gaze of the two took hold.

She then feel something like a struck of lightning and a thousand of butterflies in her stomach. It's like the the whole world stopped and it's just the two of them, staring deeply.

She only realized it when Yaz shook her.

"Oh my Goshie! My Enford is so so galing!" She giggled.

She looked back at Hank as he was talking to his girlfriend.

She rolled her eyes at them.

'What the hell was that?'
