"Hi Akua you looking mighty fine today in your skirt", she gets surprised because I've never been this bold around her so she says "oh you are not going to run off today after seeing me". I laugh it off because the former me was shy and would always run as fast as I can when I saw her.
I responded back "no I'm not the same person from yesterday" I teased with smile causing her to immediately bust out laughing saying "how cute but I don't date boys around my age" I immediately cut her off saying "you date ??? but your only ten who could you be dating". She than says "the great and s.e.xiest man to walk this Earth Jesus of the Christ".
My face sinks and I laugh and say" I guess I still have a chance since he's no longer on this Earth and isn't he a little too old for you unless you like sugar daddy's like that". She laughs and says "she will see me later" and I leave happy because I was able to impress her today unlike my old self that was a loser to her even until high school.
When I got to John's place we played some Dreamcast and left for the court to play some ball. When we got there it was crowed with some grown men playing games. We asked for a game to play and they said they just started so we can split up and join them. We started playing and they didn't want to pa.s.s it to me since they thought I couldn't play so the person watching me just left me alone most of the time outside the 3pt line.
After going back and forth they finally decided to pa.s.s it to me and I made the shot and they thought I got lucky but when they did it the second time and I made it to win the game they all cheered as they couldn't believe a ten year could make such a outside shot. One old guy said I should join their league and I told him I'm part of my middle school team already and than one of them said he has a granddaughter if I'm interested I almost choked and said dude I don't even have hair down there yet.
He laughed and said "just saying you might end up in the NBA and I miss my chance to join your family for a free meal", I shook my head and left them to go home. After a few weeks of practicing with the team we have a practice match with a nearby school the sharks who have a key player Kon who is a center. We start the game Kon wins the jump ball and pa.s.ses to their pg.
Kon gets in the post and gets the ball back and quickly makes work and tricks Momba into jumping and steps to the sides to make a layup. Darrel starts the run on our side and quickly gives it to me and I see it in Momba's eyes that he wants revenge so I pa.s.s it to him in the post and he quickly jerks and does a step back and makes the mid range shot to tie it up.
By half time they were up by 4 points. It's practically Momba vs Kon because they keep going back and forth with each other in points. Bill is annoyed by this point and ask me when I'm going to actually score some points. I tell him in the final minutes as a icing on the cake. Score was 56 to 62 with 2 minutes left of the game we were losing so I told Darrel to give me the ball from now on because Momba and the others were tired and out of breath.
I quickly receive the ball and take a step back three to bring us behind by 3. The sharks were a little shocked because they didn't see me score the whole game and the first shot I took went in. The coach immediately told the team to double me. There was only a minute left and they had the ball but lucky for me they were all tired so they weren't paying attention and the pg tried to pa.s.s it to Kon but I read it and intercepted it and ran off and stopped at the three point line and made the shot to tie it up with 20 seconds left.
They quickly made a run and Kon made a drink over Momba to get the lead up by two they started to celebrate because there was only 2 seconds left I told momba to in bound the ball to me and let me take the shot. They didn't even bother playing defense because I was on the other side of the court so as soon as I got the ball I turned around and threw the ball as hard as I could.

The bell sounded for the game over and the sharks started hugging each other until they heard the net making noise and the score board changed. The place erupted with cheers and everyone came running to me because I made that shot to win the game for us. The sharks were feeling all kinds of emotions at this point and some were even crying, I laughed at this scene and shook my head.
