After 2 months.....
The next weeks were like that everyday after school we would train and I somehow became used to it I didn't feel any pain after training.
I would talk to Tess almost everyday . I would spend a lot of time with Jenny and on weekends she would take me around town.
Tess was still with Ralph although she didn't look happy when I used to see them together .But I couldn't do anything . Despite that my school life and home life was going greet but I had a lot I wanted and I couldn't ask Mom for it . I thought of getting a job .
It was a Friday after school and we were finished with training .
" Alright listen up guys ... we have a big game next week on Monday don't let me down guys " the coach said to us
" We won't coach " we all replied at the same time .
" You better not " he said with a serious look .
" Team dismissed " he said then blew his whistle .
We went to the looker room to remove the training attire .
" Hey Troy " Sydney said removing his training shirt and putting on the school one
" Yeah " I replied him also switching to my uniform .
" This is our chance to wow the coach " he said with a nervous look .
" Yap don't worry will do great " I said to him .
After that I went outside the looker room and looked around for Jenny since I used to go with her home everyday .
My eyes landed on her and I approached her .
" Hey Jenny .... how about I get a Job " I said looking at her .
" That's a really great idea but you will be too busy with school , training plus you won't have anytime for me " she said then gave me puppy eyes .
" Well now that you've mentioned it ... yeah I think you're right " I said to her .
" Yeah think twice about it " she said then tied her hair in a ponytail .
" I'm coming to your house tomorrow ... I have something to show you " she said as we were moving .
" Well since you and Tess are the aces of the cheerleaders there must be a lot of guys who want to date you " I said to her .
" Well yeah but I'm not interested in dating anyway " she said looking straight at me .
" okay " I said to her .
We got a taxi and we reached our neighborhood . We walked for a while to reach Jenny's house .
We saw Amanda and Jerome kissing near Jenny's house .
" I told you they were serious " I said to Jenny .
" I guess " she said with an unsure look.
" He's never been with a girl this long" she added .
" Bye babe " said Jerome smiling at Amanda .
" Bye " Amanda said to Jerome .
" Hey guys " she said as she bypassed us .
" Hey Amanda " Jenny replied with a smile to her .
" Hey " I also replied .
" Man I like that girl " Jerome said as he entered the house .
" Bye Troy don't forget about tommorow " Jenny said as she entered their house.
" Yeah I won't forget " I said to her
I moved up to my house .
" Welcome back " mom said to me as I entered the house . She was seated in the living room.
" yeah " I said as I went to my room .
I first took a shower then switched to casual clothes . I after there went downstairs for food .
I reached downstairs when Mom had put all the food on the dining table .
" Come Troy food is ready " she said to me as she saw me coming down the stairs .
I went straight to the dining table and sat then I started digging in .
" Are you still friends with that girl " she asked me .
" Who ? Jenny " I replied to her still focussing on my plate .
" Yes that sweet girl " she said looking at me.
" Yeah of course " I said to her .
" You know that you two make a cute couple" she said .
" Oh my God ... what are you saying ... I told you she's only my friend " I said to mom.
" Well yeah but does she have a boyfriend " age asked .
" No she's not interested in dating " I said to her remebering what Jenny had told me .
" Exactly ... maybe she's waiting for you to finally tell her " she said as she stood up to go to the kitchen .
I first stopped eating for a while then thought about what mom had just said to me .
" Nah it can't be " I said to myself then continued eating my food .
After that I went to my room and laid on my bed .
I heard my phone vibrate and went to check .
It was a text from Tess .
" Can we meet tomorrow are you free"
" Yeah " I couldn't turn her down .
" Okay find me at Trump Pub "
" Okay what time "
" 8 :20am "
" I will be there "
I accepted her invitation without this about what she wanted to tell me .
I laid on my bed and closed my eyes . I didn't know what she wanted to tell me but If it was another one of her favours I would do it any way.
