My name is Sarah Johnson. My mother past away when Mike was born, Mike is my little brother, and since then I have been living with Mike and my dad well until now.
Me: Dad, be quick or else I will be late for school!
Dad: I am being as quick as I can. Is Mike ready?
Mike: Obviously!
My dad was always so slow and I was always late for school. After running up and down countless times we rushed to the car and sped off.
Dad: So today I have a special announcement.
Me: I wonder what it is.
Dad: I will tell you guys over dinner.
I rolled my eyes, maybe it was one of his lame news or something. When we arrived I jumped out of the car and ran to my class. Luckily when I reached the classroom I was told there was a teacher's meeting. I went over to my desk and my friends came over.
Me: What is the juice?
Sam: So I heard we have a game tomorrow.
Me: Awesome!
Stacy: We are so going to crush them.
Me: Tell me about it.
Stacy: What are you going to do during the school vacation?
Me: I have no idea guys. Where are you going?
Sam: I have to attend a wedding in another town.
Me: Oh, so you are going to wear a dress?
Sam: You know that I won't wear those things. I am going to get a suit.
Me: We all knew that.
We all laughed.
Stacy: I will be going to a summer camp for basketball.
Me: Brushing up your skills I see.
Stacy: You know it.
After school we all went for basketball training since we had a game the next day. We played basketball together, that is how we became so close. Training was intense today, I guess it was because we were going to face one of the strongest teams in town. After training we all went home. My dad came to pick me up and then I remembered he had some announcement to make.
When I got home I quickly ran upstairs to go take a shower. During dinner Mike was bragging to me about how a girl in his class sent him a love letter but he is only 13 years old.
Dad: So for my announcement, I am getting married.
Mike choked on his food and I helped him spit it out. We both looked at Dad with questioning faces.
Dad: I am not getting any younger.
Me: It would have been proper if you had told us when you had gotten a girlfriend. What you just did is drop a bombshell on us.
Dad: Okay, I admit I was supposed to tell you guys when I had gotten a girlfriend but you guys will love her.
Me: We are dissappointed in you. As an adult you sure do have a mind of a child.
Dad: I am sorry guys. She will be coming with us to your grandfather's house for your vacation.
Me: Great, it couldn't get any worse than this.
Mike slowly stood up and went to his room. Sometimes when we brought up the topic for mom he would blame himself for her death. I took my food and went with it to my room. After eating I exercised a little then went to sleep.
I was at school getting ready for the match. The other team came out and they looked ready to kill us. I was playing the first half so we got right to it. After what seemed like an intense game it was half time and I was exhausted. During the game there was a girl who got badly injured from the other team. She was even bleeding too much. I guess they took her to the hospital.
I was so thirsty so I went to find a tap nearby. I passed by our school clinic and I heard someone sobbing so I popped my head in and there she was on the bed sobbing. I could tell she was in pain.
Me: For a tough girl I didn't expect you to be sobbing.
She quickly wiped her tears and looked down. I laughed then took the first aid kit to help her. I guess the nurse was out. She kept on looking down as I cleaned her wound. She kept on flinching the whole time. After I was done she looked to the side.
Girl: Thanks.
Me: What is your name?
Girl: Ruby.
Me: Nice name. My name is Sarah but you can call me Doc.
She giggled a little.
Me: Why are you hiding your face?
Ruby: I am embarrassed.
Me: We are human, we cannot be strong all the time.
She looked at me and smiled. She had a nice smile and she was really beautiful. I smiled back. We were disturbed when Stacy rushed in.
Stacy: Coach wants you to enter the game.
Me: Why?
Stacy: Lucy vomited, I guess she has a hangover.
Me: Who drinks before a game?
Stacy shrugged and ran away. I was about to go when Ruby held my hand.
Ruby: Can you take me back to the game.
Me: Are you sure?
She nodded. So I tried to take her off the bed slowly and she fell on me. We both stared at each other's eyes then quickly looked away. I held her hand and crouched down.
Ruby: You want to give me a piggy ride?
Me: We will get to the field faster.
She slowly climbed on my back and I slowly stood up. She held tightly on to me then I went to the field. I dropped her at the bench where her other team mates were then ran towards my team. I got into the court and started playing the other half. While playing I could feel like someone was staring at me but I brushed it off since I wanted to focus on the game. At the end we won but only by 1 score. It was a tough game. My team
