I Cant Miss !!! 92 New Friends

I had made a new disguise for myself by simply putting on sunglasses, only Tim knew who I was and laughed about it when he saw me put it on, but I got no attention during that time so I was excited that it worked. The guys realized I had sunglasses on and was confused by it, they thought I wouldn't be able to play well with those on so they didn't want me to pass the ball to me much.

Tim was on the other team so he was excited when he saw that they weren't passing me the ball. Tim was very competitive in the past and always wanted to win but after his team lost to me two years ago he wasn't the same. Tims team was on a good path to win the game because they had good teamwork and the extra guy to make the shot for them because i was chilling.

After a while of playing the person that was supposed to be defending me left me alone to go help defend the others that were playing hard. We were down by five points and we needed some eight points to win, I was wide open and they still wouldn't pass me the ball. One of my teammates drove the ball in the post but was quickly blocked.

When the opponent blocked the ball he didn't grab it and it slapped it away, so the ball came right to me as I grabbed it and just took the shot from outside given us 2 points. My teammates were surprised by this as they asked me if I could really shoot I nodded my head while Tim just chuckled because they realized that I was nice even with the sunglasses on, "but it was a little bit late" thought Tim as they needed only three more points to win.

They started the play once again and once again I find myself open but this time the point guard of my team passed me the ball and I took another shot closing the gap to one point now. The other team started to pay more attention to me as my previous defender started preventing me from getting the ball but it was a little bit too late as now he was out of breath and couldn't keep up with my speed and energy as I got another open shot swish "all net baby".

We were now up by 1 point with 2 more points to get to the win. All I needed was to take 1 more shot from the outside to win the game. Tims teammates were getting a little annoyed by this while my teammates started to get excited. They gave me the ball as i casually did some crossovers backed up close to the half court and took the long 2 pointers and made it swish.

My teammates started cheering loudly when I heard those cheers and the celebration that they were doing it made me feel good, so I decided to treat them all to some lunch as we went back to their place and had a small little party where I ordered some pizza for everybody. The losers from the game were also there as they were a bit salty that they didn't pay that much attention to me from the beginning.

These guys were regulars now who just took on the game of basketball for fun. They used to play respectively for their high school teams but they didn't want to pursue it for long and decided to focus more on education. There's a lot of people like that in this world where some were very talented but due to the pressures of life and some parents not understanding the dreams of their kids they tend to force a certain job type on them like Africans always want their kids to be either lawyers or doctors.

Once you have become one of those does it mean you were successful in their society but if you do not have one of those important jobs like being a pilot's you will be looked down upon and be seen as a failure? I got to know some of the guys as I had become pretty close to them. I still had my sunglasses on as I didn't want them to judge me or start taking advantage once they knew who I was.

One guy had noticed me through my disguise as he said "you look like that YouTube guy that was making all his basketball shoots from the half-court line" as soon as he said that everybody started staring hard at me as they tackled me down trying to take the glasses off me. They were finally able to succeed as they revealed my identity.

I could only laugh as I said "surprise" causing them to be shocked that they had the 1 and only Mr. Perfect shot within their dorm. They started getting star-struck as one guy said "is that really you? no wonder we lost that game and no wonder you were so good it seemed like it was a fair match in the beginning until you touched the ball", I laughed my head off until I told them" I'm still me they shouldn't treat me any differently". They agreed and their names became the Lawyer/doctor squad After eating, with them and having some laughs Tim and i left to continue the tour.

Tim showed me the places that we had missed. I was so excited to finally be in college in the previous life I had done just a vocational college so I didn't get to experience living on campus as most people did. After a while, the tour came to an end as i thanked Tim for his time and went back to my suite.

When I got there I saw a poster of a party invite apparently there was going to be a party across the street from my suite and everybody was invited and looked closer and they were charging a fee of $5 to get in which I didn't mind but it felt good to be invited to a party and spend such a small amount that I had forgotten how it felt to not spend so much.
