The final match between the School of Health Nurses and the Dwi Citizens High School is about to begin. The members of White Team, Ilham and his friends, who had prepared everything since half an hour ago immediately seeped in and did their friendship jellies with passion and high five for each other. Not to forget they also ask for support to Mother and Father who still accompany them in the dressing room.
"I certainly pray for the best for you, Ham," said Mother as she greeted her son. "You just have to show how great Inspiration is to everyone. Don't forget, you'll let me down if you lose."
Inspiration smiles. Then he turned to Dad.
"Remember, Ham, basketball is not about being proficient or not. But, how can you control cohesiveness and cooperation with your friends," said Father. "Your prowess will be in vain if you play alone. Okay well? The others should be too. Trust each other and play together."
Jhon, Made, Toni and Nugroho smiled and nodded obediently to Father.
"Just calm down, Om. We will not disappoint Om" said Jhon confidently.
The inspiration was facing towards his friends. "Guys, all this time you've helped me a lot. Sorry if I have disappointed you lately. But... May I have one request from you?"
"What's up, Ham?" ask Nugroho curious.
"Gue really wants this final to be the most memorable match for me. Therefore, in addition to doing my best, I want Jhon to be the captain of the White Team. You will lead this match, Jhon," said Ilham with a smile. "Can?"
Everyone was shocked to hear the words of Inspiration. They looked at each other, hesitant to accept his request. Because, Ilham had been the captain of a very good basketball team. Maybe too good. The sudden throws really confused them.
John turned back to Ilham. "Ham, I'm not as good as elo. I can't be captain. Elo can. Didn't we tell you long ago, you're the captain who's the right fit for our team."
"Jhon, this is my request once in a lifetime. After this I will no longer ask you to be captain again" said Ilham pleading. "Just this once. This match only. Okay?"
John locked his mouth doubtfully.
Nugroho breathed. "If you insist, I agree."
"Look!" jhon said shocked to hear his words. "Gue can't!"
"Jhon, there's no time. We need to get to the field, the game's about to start." Toni is making a sound.
Jhon breathed. He looked towards Ilham. "Well, Ham, if you're sure of all this, I'll follow your request. Just this once. Next I want you to be captain again."
Inspiration smiles.
"Then, let's get out. Ready to face the final, White Team?!" Jhon.
"Ready, captain!" exciting everything compact.
Then, they went straight out into the field. The core players immediately prepared for the match while the others sat sweetly on the bench.
Including Dilan of course...!!!
After the actual incident was known by Mr. Ridwan, he immediately scolded Dilan all-out and forbade him to play on the field unless he was forced to. He was really rampaging because it turned out that the new kid got into basketball just to destroy his core team. And if Dilan breaks his words, Dilan will he be forced out of basketball. Therefore, Dilan was forced to shut up to see his plan to avenge his cousin was failed. The sports exhibition does not need selfish children and wants to win alone like Dilan.
Fauzi Rizal already knew about this.
Yesterday as Mr. Ridwan was lecturing him, Dilan went straight to his cousin and told him everything. And unexpectedly, Fauzi Rizal was angry because he thought Dilan was not working. On the other hand, they could be better as well since they were both secretly chatting at the Sports Arena. And from there, the relationship of Fauzi Rizal and Dilan is also in a cold war status now. They are both equally angry, because the fact is that Fauzi Rizal was also lectured by his father so as not to cheat in the final match today, considering he had harmed Ilham first.
The beginning of the final match between the White Team and the Dwi Citizens High School basketball team really made the Sports arena hot. The two basketball teams continue to try to make their team superior. A lot of defense is done by them so the scoreboard still stays with small numbers until the first quarter is finished. It looks like both teams are still trying to read the opponent's strategy in order to find a gap to win. The cheers from the audience are also undeniably very crowded. Each has a lot of support.
"15-10 for their excellence. Pretty good for the start" Mr. Ridwan said with a smile to his children. "Keep stamina and don't get hooked if they try to pull your emotions. Keep playing quiet, yet excited." Further.
"Ready, Sir!" white Team Kompak.
"Made!" yelled Jhon passing the ball.
Made immediately dribbled towards his team's basketball ring. There were some Dwi Citizens High School players who tried to block but fortunately Toni and Ilham immediately helped him.
"Nugroho!" shout Made.
"Shoot!!"
Nugroho who just got the ball from Made immediately threw the ball into the ring from a considerable distance. A bit further away from the three-point line of fire. And... Logging in! Three points for White Team. The audience's voice instantly rumbled as the basketball entered smoothly.
Next, Fauzi Rizal holds the basketball. With his agility he immediately dribbled the ball past Ilham and his friends who tried to block without passing it to anyone. Only pass once to his friend when he is close to the ring. Unfortunately, the shot failed. The ball touches the ring's lips and goes mental from there.
"Take the ball!" yell out loud Jhon.
"HUP!" Toni Adam took the ball and dribbled.
"Defense!" fauzi Rizal. Then, he immediately ran to try to grab the ball. However, Jhon immediately confronted him so that he could not pursue.
"Surge elo!" fauzi Rizal said as he tried to pass Jhon.
"Gue won't let you divide us anymore!" reply Jhon.
"Huh, just look at it later!" Fauzi Rizal directly broke through Jhon without a care. Jhon immediately followed after him while monitoring the situation. The ball is still in his team's hands. Made was trying to shoot from under the ring but failed. Followed by Ilham who caught the ball and immediately shot again. Failed too! Jhon immediately swiftly caught the ball which happened to next point towards him and shot again.
Logging in! Two points for White Team. Now their position is drawn with the same score of 15. There's five minutes left. There is still plenty of time to play in the second quarter.
"Zi!"
The short-haired man caught the ball from his friend immediately after the ball was thrown into the field. He immediately ran towards the ring followed by his friends. However, his plan to make a three-point shot must be held back when Nugroho immediately confronted. Many friends from the Dwi Citizens High School team raised their hands asking for the ball. However, it was unexpected that Fauzi Rizal actually twisted and escaped the White Team barrier.
"Blocks!" nugroho shouted directly after Fauzi Rizal.
Made and Ilham who heard the screams were immediately ready to block Fauzi Rizal from firing. With a little trick, Made also immediately snatched the ball from the hands of Fauzi Rizal and immediately took the ball away from the opponent's ring. Nugroho in the middle of the field immediately asked for the ball.
"Look!" made shouted directly obeying the code.
Just like Made earlier, Nugroho also brought the ball to the ring and passed it to Jhon who was already standing on the side of the field. Jhon wanted to shoot but he was too excited so his shot failed. The ball passes through the ring and falls into the hands of the opponent.
Damnit damnit! yell Jhon in my heart. In fact, he is very confident that he can score from there. But, apparently not. He put too much strength into his throw.
"Brach! Defense!" nugroho shouted while running.
Now the ball is on Fauzi Rizal. This time Ilham who tried to block him from scoring or passing to anyone. Behind him Nugroho and Made are also ready to block. However, it was unexpected that Fauzi Rizal again did not think to pass. He broke through the Inspiration. His feet briefly he elbowed to Ilham's right knee, making Ilham somewhat lost balance.
"Brach!" jhon said frantically looking at his best friend.
Fortunately, however, Ilham was able to restore his balance. He immediately smiled at John, a sign that he was okay. Then, he immediately refocused on the match, even though in fact his knee was a bit sore.
HUP! Fauzi Rizal instantly did a lay-up and entered!
The second quarter is still two minutes away. White Team supporters are increasingly eager to support the Health Nursing School team to continue to be excited even though their numbers continue to be overtaken. The basketball players on the court also kept trying without giving up for a second.
