chapter 25 (1/1)

“What the hell is wrong with you, Park Chanyeol?” Roo questioned.“Nothing is wrong with me, they were the ones who provoked me.” He was fired. “Even if so, you knew they were trying to provoke you. Why did you start the fight? Now you are disqualified for this game. Are you happy now?” “I start the fight?! He did a foul attack, did you even see? And disqualified? So what,with this kind of opponent, I would rather not play.”Roo took in a deep breath, Woobin saw and warned Chanyeol to stop.“Okay firstly, yes they did a foul attack. Weren’t you used to that kind of play? Huh. They were capable of that, are you? Nothing is foul if you can hide through it. Secondly, rather not play? Is that the kind of attitude you going to have throughout the whole tournament? You don’t care about getting disqualified? Is that how you see a basketball game? Sure, then don’t play at all.” Roo sat back down, three seats away from Chanyeol whom had fire shooting out his eyes as he watched the game. He wasn’t going to bring up the name that was used on her. Woobin who was sitting beside Chanyeol, gave the fuming man a pat on his shoulder. The others were watching the two people silently, not able to add in any words afraid to agitate any of them at the moment. 2nd quarter ended, luckily with not too much score difference. With the incident that happened, had affected their performance a little. Yongjin is leading right now but not by too much, Roo was confident to get the score back. Roo continues to change team members of the players for the next 2 quarters. She was studying how her players had played and techniques they are using, meanwhile taking down notes. She had called for a last time out in the last quarter to gather them back.And by the 3rd quarter ended, they had successfully turned the score to 78-74 with Team Sanspeur leading. They were pumped with the results and are all giving their very best. Roo called for the last timeout for the last quarter.“Listen up Oh Sehun, the last ball is yours. Everyone, if you get the ball in the last 15 seconds, pass it to Sehun. No one is blocking him from what I observed, they are letting the hole at Sehun’s position. Their focus is very much on three people, Woobin, JongHyun and Mino. You guys are doing very well, above my expectation in this round. Just end this game well, drag as much time as you can to keep the lead, keep defending. The win is already 75% in your hand. Alright, go for it!”They ran in to the court to finish up the rest of the 2-minute game. “REMEMBER! DEFEND!”  At the last 16 seconds, JongSuk did not forget to pass the ball to Sehun and he did a 2 pointer shoot without much difficulty and that marked the end of the match. The audience clapped for Team Sanspeur and the rest of the players ran up to the 5 players on court to do a group hug. Roo was standing at the resting area, with a big smile plastered on her face. “Come over Roo!” They all shouted for her. She shook her head, signalling that it’s okay.Woobin pulled in the grumpy Chanyeol in the meantime too. “Hey! Don’t be a party pooper! Come on!” Jong Suk pulled her over. They engulfed her in to a group hug, and all she could think, was how happy she is at the moment. All her effort didn’t go down the drain. The coach had brought the 11 of them back to school.Once they’ve arrived, they came down of the bus and waited for everyone to get down, expecting a debrief from Roo. Roo was the last one to alight and all she said was, “I will see all of you tomorrow in school. Don’t be late for training and rest well today. Goodnight” She waved, waiting for them to leave. “What’s the matter?” “Roo, aren’t you going to debrief us?” Jonghyun questioned.“right” they all gave her a confused look. She always tries her best to point out their mistake in every training and game but why didn’t she say anything today? “you all did a good job today. I have nothing to say. Return home safely” she didn’t wait for them this time round and turned on her heels to leave. “If you have a problem with me, just say it out!” Chanyeol voiced out. Gaining a nudge from Minhyuk. “What? Isn’t it obvious it’s because of me?”Roo stopped and turned towards him. She sighed. “what do you want me to say? You still think you’re right isn’t it? what can I say if I can’t drill the right thing in to your mind?” She walked towards him.
