Chapter 7


    The game started for about 15 minutes and the score of the opponent team is 2 pointers more


    than us. I tried my hardest to endure the pain on my foot, so our team could win the game by scoring


    thest 3 pointers to defeat the opponent team. "Nathan!" Seth called my name while signalling me to


    get ready. "Shoot now!" Then he threw me the ball where I was not guard by the opponent team


    members.


    This is my chance...to score 3 pointers so our team could win the game. So I took my step and


    aimed the ball and shot it straight towards the hoop which I wasn’t sure if I score it or not. It is because


    someone just pushed me so hard as I jumped so high to shoot the ball.


    My sprained foot felt so much pain as Inded on it hard. The referee then blew the whistle right


    away to end the game while my other teammates came closer to me to check me out.


    The injury is so painful, but my heart beating so fast, and I feel really more uneasy than before as


    my parents faces suddenly sh in my mind. The dream from that night kept haunted me over and


    over.


    There must be something bad happen to mom and dad.


    "Hey Nathan," Henry was crouching to check on my condition. "Are you okay dude?"


    I winced in pain. "Not okay dude...my foot is so painful, and I think something just happen to my


    family." I wasn’t sure about it but I could feel it on my bones.


    "What?" Seth knitted his eyebrows while looking at me. "What do you mean?" He looked awfully


    confused with me


    "I don''t know...yet...but I really feel so uneasy right now."


    "Nathan!" I heard an angelic voice calling my name. The special voice that only one person has it


    and guess what...the owner is Isabe Dawson. She looks so worried about me as I saw her running


    towards my direction with Sasha and Cecilia following her from behind.


    "Are you okay?" She asked me while examined my right foot. "Can you move it?" Be looked so


    worried, an expression which I never see it before.


    Why on earth she cares about me? I never treat her well before, I mean, I rarely talk to her not act


    like a jerk in front of her or something.


    I was indeed surprised with her action, especially the way she examined my foot right away as


    soon as she arrived to check on me. It was like I was badly injured or something like that. She''s totally


    different than Sasha and Cecilia, she''s more gentle and kind-heart person.


    I think she might be a very good doctor and also a good wife to her future husband who is


    very lucky to have her.


    "Ouch..." I winced in pain.


    "I think you sprained your foot again, Nathan. But it is worse than before." She said to me as she


    moved my foot a bit to examine it.


    Our eyes met for several milliseconds, a pair of beautiful grey eyes met with my ocean blue eyes.


    I''m now noticed that she''s actually more beautiful than Sasha or Cecilia. Her creamy skin is so


    pretty, her bronze hair which is changed to wavy silky hair that is really match with her gorgeous face.


    Eh...what I''m thinking? That’s so weird. What about Sasha? She is my crush but Be…


    I tried to move but my foot is so painful that made me winced in pain again.


    "My family...I need to see them." I said when my mom and dad faces shed again in my mind.

    "Please take me to them now!"


    "Hey calm down, boy. They''ll be alright." Mr Goodman tried to calm me down. "It''s you who need


    an attention now. Girls, take Nathan to the infirmary, now! Do anything that you need to do."


    My coach looks at me then back to my teammates. "My youth students, all of you must continue


    your game without Nathan. Our best yer got injured and it wasn’t mean that we lose. Let’s do our


    best, okay?"


    My teammates gave each other’s look. "Alright sir!"


    "Sorry for disappointing you guys." I said to them. "Good luck...do your best without me."


    My teammates gave me thumbs up before went back to the court to continue the match while Be


    took me to the infirmary to get my foot treat again.


    *


    We won the match this evening, it''s all thanks to Henry with his quick movement to block the


    opponent to shoot the score. Seth, my best friend then stole the ball from them and shoot a 3 pointers


    into the dunk.


    It was a luck by the way. If I didn''t get injured, maybe I will be the one who shoot the winning score.


    Thanks for that jerk who pushed me earlier that made me missed my shot.


    But anyway, I can now move a little with Be''s expertise to treat my injury when the nurse wasn’t


    there at the infirmary. She''s so good though. I''m so lucky to have a friend like her. Man, I felt so guilty


    all of sudden for not noticing her so soon. Poor her for being me as a friend. I’m truly a bad person.


    I was resting on my bed in my dorm when, my closest lecturer entered my room followed by two


    police officers behind him. Their uniform scared the hell out of several male students. I totally


    recognized that sounded, where they were trying hard to hide all of their porn magazines, dvds,


    strapons or whatsoever they have. I don’t know because I never had such a thing, believe me.


    But the thing that worried me was my parents weren’t return my call until then. And now, tow police


    officers came to my room.


    What is actually happen?


    Did I do something wrong against thew?


    I wobbled a bit when I tried to stand up from my bed. Mr Stewart slowly approached me, with his


    sad face.


    "Nathan..." his voice cracked. "It''s about you parents..."


    I was shocked when he mentioned my parents.


    My parents can''t be...


    They promised me!


    “I’m sorry Mr Harrison, I’m afraid that both of your parents died in ne crash,” one of the police


    officers told me.


    “No….no….they promised me, no sir, noo!!!” I can’t ept that news. My parents can’t be dead,


    they….they still alive. I know because they promised me.


    I stood on my feet while enduring the pain from my right foot, “I want to go home, Mr Stewart. They


    are waiting for me there…please let me go home,” the tears kept pouring down on my cheeks with the


    two police officers tried to stop me. “Let me go…”


    “Sir, please…calm down,” the tall police man tried to calm me.


    “Let me go, dude!” I pushed him out of my way and Mr Stewart too as he was trying to stop me


    from getting out of my dorm. But I managed to walk out of it and ran towards the hallway with the


    hurting foot.


    However, the pain was so damn hurt that made me fall almost fall, but there was someone


    managed to catch me from falling. The scent was familiar and I knew that person without even look at


    her face.


    “They’re gone, Be….” I shed the tears and the gentle Be slowly pulled me into her arms by


    letting me crying in her hug. “My parents…..they left me.”
