"Oh! Good to see you all." Said Mister Wa with a smile on his face whereas others were shocked that training teacher knows the players of School Lotus' boy's basketball team?!
"Do you know them from before, sir?"
"Hm? Except 1, I met the rest 5 at morning at about 6:30, jogging together. Then I met them at park where they were exercising. So, yeah." Said Mister Wa.
And now teachers were shocked except Miss Naya and she already left.
"Anyways, it has been 11 AM already so it's time for girl's training so let's talk at open ground." And Mister Wa started moving towards the exit of the stadium and everyone followed him.
While Mister Wa was walking towards the open ground of the school and students following him, one basketball member of Kagi School came aside Era and said, "What is your name?"
Era, without looking at the student of Kagi School, happily said, "Era." And then he turned towards the student and was freezed. He is Qu.
"Sounds familiar. So... You are back at basketball?" Said Qu.
Era turned away his face with looking down and didn't replied to Qu anything.
Qu understood that Era is now afraid of him and smiled and left away from Era.
But Ishan was observing everything.
Era said in his mind, "I... Just hope... She is not here." With becoming fearful.
Mister Wa took the students to the open ground of the school and said, "Now, listen! Do anyone of you have a time schedule for boy's basketball?"
Ishan raised his hand and Mister Wa said to tell his time schedule.
Ishan said, "Our time schedule is of 7 PM to 10 PM."
"So you were the one who were playing when we came at the school?" Said Qu.
Mister Wa said, "Well, do anyone else agree to follow with that time?"
Jiyu said, "Not till now, maybe because none of us told to others, I guess."
Mister Wa said, "Well, it's ok. Now, as you all have heard, what do you think about that time schedule?"
Qu said, "I am against. What about our eating? Cafeteria closed at 9:30 and preserved food in air is not good at all."
One student of Koyo School said, "I also. It is just wastage of time."
"How many of you don't like that time schedule?" Asked Mister Wa.
And students of Kagi and Koyo School together raised their hand.
"So... Now majority is against, so...?"
Cyet said, "Sir, we got an approval from the principal sir of Koyo School and he said that even if majority stands against us, our time schedule will not be abolished."
And Koyo and Kagi School's boys were now totally trapped. They were planning to take the time schedule of School Lotus and they both, without Ishan and his team will play but they didn't knew that principal has already given them approval.
Mister Wa said, "This is the spirit! Very well, Cyet, right? And his companions."
"So, for you, Kagi and Koyo School's boys. If you want to change your idea you can buy the time schedule will be followed strictly. And if you all are still against, then our time schedule will be of 9 to 11 AM and 12 to 14 PM at a park. If you, Aid and others, also want to join you can."
Ishan started discussing with his companions whereas Kagi and Koyo School's boys definitely don't want to lose their meals so they didn't accepted Ishan's time schedule but they will have to follow time schedule of 9 to 11 and 12 to 14 by which they will have to miss breakfast.
"Sir! We can't accept 9 to 11 AM scheduled but 12 to 14 PM will be good for us." Said Ishan after discussing.
"Sir! It is unfair, they will leave 9 to 11 AM scheduled but will accept 12 to 14 PM one, isn't it bad?" Said a student of Kagi School.
"No. I allow them for 12 to 14 PM schedule. They also play at night for 3 hours and at morning, they have jogging and exercises by which they must need rest so it is not unfair." Said Mister Wa. And all the boys of Kagi and Koyo School became silent and can't do anything on it.
"Ok then! Time schedules are fixed. It will be followed strictly abd you can take rest for today, training will start from tomorrow. See you all." And Mister Wa left.
At evening, when Aid was just wandering in the ground of Koyo School outside with being upset. Suddenly someone caught his arm and pulled somewhere else.
Ahi was stalking Aid but when he got snatched away by someone, she was panicked.
"Don't think that you are kidnapped." Said the person who just pulled Aid and laughed.
Aid turned towards the voice and it was Ishan!
"What the hell are you doing?!" Screamed Aid.
Whereas, Ahi already heard and felt relieved that Aid is not kidnapped and just started hearing their conversation.
"This was to bring you back to whom you actually are, Aid. You again stopped talking to Ahi. Just tell me your story, as you usually take me to tell anything, use me the same. I just want my team and you are a part of it, so tell me."
Aid said, "What to tell you about? That I am murderer? I... Am!" And for the first time, tears in Aid's eyes and he started crying.
Ahi was shocked by hearing seeing Aid crying for the first time.
"Just tell me. I want to hear." Said Ishan.
Aid looked at Ishan and started crying more loudly.
After a few minutes,
"If... I could be at home. I might be able to save my mother and if not, then at least, I could also die with my mother. I miss her a lot."
Ishan said, "So it doesn't mean that you are the murderer, the destiny can't be changed. And you were a small child, how can you even control those things?"
