Seven years ago, shooting hoops used to impress Marian. September can make her smile while sitting on one of those dirty bleachers across the basketball court. She didn't mind the stains that can easily attach to her uniform. She used to wait for Aidan after his school hours and basketball practice. Every game and championship match, Marian was there for Aidan, no missing any chance of opportunity to support him to all his basketball games.

On their first year, everything went well, albeit nobody knows if they are dating, just friends, or if they are really going steady. They kept their relationship to themselves from other people, even to their friends and families. It may seem weird, but they were actually happy that way; at least no one will keep buzzing them on what's going on between them. Besides, Marian is already an alumna of their university, with same college of discipline, while Aidan is already on his last year in college. She used to frequently visit him after class and went out for lunch, and/or sometimes dinner.
