Chapter 15: The New 5th Man.
Basketball?.... I really can't believe it, I have always watched this game on televisions and when our school team are training back when I was still at the Orphanage, we were never allowed to go cheer on our team during matches, we can only watch them train, and that was all, they usually leave for match on occasions where the school pupils will be having lectures and only those selected in the team are usually those from the 12th grade, their classmates go with them to go cheer them up, but this time, this time I have been registered into the school team in my new school. It was surely a surprise like they said, I never saw myself getting the opportunity to play basketball, I have always loved the game but internally where I never get to share about it with anybody, just keeping in the idea to myself. The more time I spent here, the more I realize that I have been hoarding quite a lot of secrets right from my time back at the Orphanage. David never liked the idea that I never told him about my first kiss with Stella, if I was to make up a silly excuse for myself, I would have said he never asked, but how would he know that he had to ask?, I just happened to apologize to him about it, promising him that I would try not to hide things from him again, but as days have been passing by, secrets continue to increase, secrets only me should know about. After my first day training with the basketball team, Stella made the same move again, but now by the school toilet area when few of the students were already on their way home, I didn't share that one with David or anyone because no one deserves to know, I guess Mr Caleb taught me more than I give him credit for. With David and the others influence, I have seen their trick on pushing me into the first team starters, not that I wasn't playing well though, I have known somethings from way back while watching my former school train, but I can tell that few of the juniors here were good, much better in the game compared to me, I definitely can't match their skills and experience, but energy?.... I believe I surpass them at that area, I have been hitting the gym lately and have been seeing positive results. This was my fourth day training with the school team and I can't tell that I have been fairing well, the juniors never dragged their place with me, despite being better in the game, they just hold back, I can tell that it wasn't because we were the seniors, but because they seem to be afraid of David and the others, they seem to be avoiding how they would react if they challenged for their place, even the coach was quite silent about that, if only they knew David deep down, they would realize he's great to be around with and share opinions. Mother superior always tells me something concerning intervening, she taught us that it was best we relax and stay positive minded as we watch how things go rather than intervening, that teaching is sculpted deep down into my head, I understood the teaching pretty well and I have been exercising it throughout my life since I learnt it, if I allow the juniors to say their mind or give them power because we were taught about equality, that's when the respect will be gone, they would challenge the authority of the seniors and it will never turn out well. Sister Benita told me that there was more to life than I would understand, that people being trampled on is a good view to watch, but get them out from that position, then you will see something worse that you should have left buried. Mother superior never taught me this, neither did sister Benita taught me or even Mr Caleb, this one I learnt by experience and movies I have watched so far, power is something immeasurable, when you have power, you have something superior to knowledge, Mother superior was said knowledge is power, but when you realize what the world has to offer, you will then realize that power is power, nothing else. I just took advantage of opportunities, but I mind myself against evil, best I just allow those who owns the power to handle it than to offer them to the wrong people who will use it to tear apart the peace in the area, that much I have learnt so far. “ You know I have been seeing everything going on with you and Stella, I can say it's really quiet fun to have.....”, Drew said before me, trying to mark me and beat the ball out from me, I had to then pass it to the other junior behind me and made the run while Drew chased me tight. “ Yeah.... I think it's great too but I don't think about it much ”, I said to him, the ball was thrown back to me as I grabbed it before Drew could intercept. “ But for me, I think about it....”, he said with a grin on his face, what does he mean by that, I can see his grin widen as my confusion increases, he knocked the ball out from me and made an attack towards our area, with two or three passes, Drew happened to dunk it into our basket and began celebrating with his teammates. We began again and reaching him, he pulled some stunt at me again, “ Have you ever wondered what her mouth will taste like after kissing me?......”, he asked, still grinning at me, that's when I lost it and did something I have never done before, attack a person, I threw the ball to his face with force, definitely breaking his nose on purpose as he fell to the floor wincing in pain, David ran to me holding me back while the others went to check up on him, Oh my God.... What is this terrible feeling inside my head?.
