Capítulo 26: Daily life with a twist
*Sigh Sigh* by Seb.
"Seb, Seriously your cousin is the hottest person I've ever met. Why didn't you introduced him to me before?", Erica giggled.
"Eric!!!", Seb scratched her head roughly,"you're saying this for the 4th time now".
"Yeah but...", Erica nudged her head,"...I can't resist. He's so cool!".
"You just said he's hot!!!", Seb was losing it.
"It's an irony Seb. He's physically hot and emotionally cool", Erica taught.
Emotion my foot!!!, Seb thought to herself, if only Eric knew what he's really like in real. That was all fake from the other night.
"His name is also so sharp....Iven, so heart piercing!", Erica added.
"How can a name, be sharp???", asked Seb uninterested.
"Don't spoil the fantasy Seb", Erica beamed," You have no idea about boys, you don't see him the way I do because he's your cousin. If he wasn't, and if you would be a normal girl, you would know how lucky it is to meet such a boy".
Don't see him the way she does???, Seb sighed within herself, how would she know how I see him. If only he were my cousin. it's not worth describing how I actually see him as!
Seb chuckled as she recalled her past memories with Iven.
"What's so funny?", Erica snapped.
"Nothing, carry on with your fantasies", Seb said.
"When are you going to meet him next?", Erica asked with curious eyes.
Seb's heart bumped at the question as she suddenly remembered something.
2 days ago, morning 7am:
"You look sick", Iven said,"Your eyes are bloodshot, aren't you getting enough sleep???"
Seb yawned and replied,"sort of. I'm little stressed out. Football and Taekwondo practices, along with college works, are really keeping me busy".
"Why don't you take a break?", Iven suggested.
"Not a chance. Not until the tournaments are over. I thought of skipping morning runs, but then I won't get any other time to meet you", Seb said casually.
Iven smiled within himself. She sacrifices her sleep to meet him just. That's very much like Seb.
"You don't have to", Iven rubbed the back of his head.
Seb looked at him and smirked,"So, you'll be okay if I stop coming here?". She had him trapped.
Iven looked down and laughed nervously. It was a direct no from his side. He didn't ever wanted that.
Seb laughed,"No, it's fine. Also, if I don't come I'll grow lethargic".
Seb studied her watch,"Oh, I must get going".
"Time already?", Iven asked.
Seb stretched herself and stood up,"Hmm".
For Iven, time seems to shorten day by day.
Even though Seb had been spending more time lately, and reaches college late.
"Coming tomorrow, right?", Iven was sure that the reply would be positive.
Seb paused on her steps and slowly murmured,"Uh...no".
"What do you mean by no?", Iven went a bit hyper.
"Well you see, we're going for morning practices for a week. So I won't be able to make it", Seb explained.
"A whole week?", Iven asked disappointed.
Seb nodded,"Honestly, I hate it!!!".
-What, the practices?
-Nah, that I won't be able to come here.
-So you like playing football so hard?
-It's totally pointless. I just have no choice.
-Alright then. But can't you stay a while longer?, since you won't come for a week?
-I'll seriously have to go today. But i can offer a compromise.
-What's that?
-You have time this Wednesday?
-Why Wednesday?
-Are you? Tell me the time when you'll be free.
-Tell me your time, I'll manage mine. I work only when I want, unlike the busy you.
-Whatever, Wednesday 6 pm sounds cool?
-What at 6 pm but?
-Meet me at Rouque Berry avenue.
-Just to meet? Fine by me, but you'll come just to meet???
-No silly, let's go out!
-Go out as in.....
Iven felt his heart in his mouth. Was Seb offering him a date? Was it something like that? His ears started turning red. His ears always turn red whenever he is embarrassed.
-As in, go out and have fun. Like a date!
Iven choked on nothing. She's so cool even when asking out for a date.
"Ok", he managed to reply quickly lest Seb change her mind due to the delay.
"I'll there then", Seb face lit up as he replied.
Saying she prepared to leave.
Iven folded his hands and watched her go.
"Belle, 6 pm, don't be late", he called from behind.
Seb didn't look back and waved her hand once.
"6 pm, Rouque Berry Avenue", Iven shouted again. Seb didn't reply this time and continued walking. She understood that it was his first and he was looking forward to it really. He seemed in high spirits.
She's really changing me all over, Iven thought, I too want to be the one she wants me to be.
Back to present time:
"What day it is today?", Seb asked suddenly.
"It's...Wednesday. Why do you ask?", Erica said
"Just...", said Seb and started organizing her stuffs. She had a date with Iven today. Her first date ever, perhaps Iven's too.
The day was hardly passing for Seb.
It was finally 2:30 and Seb was preparing to leave, when suddenly Jane and Renee blocked her class door.
"What?", Seb asked in a hurry.
"Let's go", Jane said without any explanation.
"Where?", Seb asked confused. She clearly remembered that there was no practice of Volleyball today.
"What do you mean where? You don't remember?", Renee snapped.
"What to remember?", Seb snapped back.
"We said you, didn't we? We have a club match today!!", Jane said with raised eyebrows.
"No you didn't!!!", Seb burst out.
"Well,...sorry. Now we have, let's go", Renee said,"You don't seem busy anyways".
Seb felt lava boiling down her skin. The guts of her team was raising a lot lately. They even dared order their Captain.
"No!!!",Seb protested loudly,"I've appointments. I can't come".
"And how are we supposed to play without our captain?", Renee said,"What's with you? You've never declined playing in 'The Aphrodites" ever before".
"I had no prior information", Seb argued,"I don't even have my Jersey".
"Doesn't matter, we're getting new Jersey today. Don't delay, let's go", saying Renee grabbed Seb's hand and started walking.
"But...no, wait...", Seb resisted and tried to get free but Renee was very serious about her game. It was impossible to deny her when it comes to Volley Ball.
I'll be late!!! Seb thought to herself.
But she had no choice. No one will agree to leave out the captain and star player out of the game even once.
Seb had to play!
Within no time she found herself in the attire of her new Jersey.
"Guys listen!!! Can't you leave me out just this once???", Seb tried for the last time.
But every one mercilessly ignored it.
Seb sighed heavily. There is no more way. She had lost her chance of escape.
She has to play!!! No more choice left. She could pray that the game would get over soon and she would get barely enough time to change and meet up Iven.
But for the time being, she must not take the game loosely just for her date.
She switched herself to game mode in an instant!!!
Whenever she plays, she is totally into her game. Thus she prepared herself for it!
She's the captain after all!!! She should retain her position boldly!
'The Aphrodites' is under her control, and she can bail them out!
"We've got a game to win", she finally said. Everyone howled and cheered wildly.
But somewhere deep inside, she was still under the worry!!!
