Yesterday's events still ring in Ell's mind.
He felt that the reason for doing that to Kate was because of the jealousy of seeing Kate with the man.
Now he understands clearly how he feels about Kate.
He did not want to lose the girl.
(Yes, I have to do it.
I have to tell Kate how I feel about her.)
Ell then sends Kate a message to meet him at the basketball court in the afternoon.
After the message is sent, Ell hopes Kate can meet him.
Long waiting for Kate's reply, Ell finally receives an incoming message.
And he was so happy to find Kate's message that he wanted to meet her later that afternoon.
Ell then went back to his desk and immediately checked the files and documents that were on the table.
He must finish his job quickly in order to get home on time and be able to meet with Kate.
A few hours later, Ell looked up at his watch.
He immediately brought his suit and then rushed out of his room.
After arriving at the parking lot, Ell got into the car and immediately moved towards the house.
After school, Alice walked home.
When she was in front of the gate, Alice stopped her steps.
His eyes looked towards the basketball court.
He hadn't been there for a long time, he thought.
Alice smiled.
He decided to go to that place, as well as to calm down.
Arriving at the basketball court, Alice sat on the chair that was there.
He then took the book out of his bag.
There he prepared himself for the lab lab lab lab exam which will be conducted tomorrow.
Ell went into his room.
Then he cleaned himself up.
After getting ready, Ell got out of the house and walked towards the basketball court.
Kate must have been waiting for him there.
As she reached the basketball court, Ell put a sweet smile on her face.
I can't wait to meet Kate.
But his smile immediately disappeared when he did not see Kate there.
Ell's eyes then caught someone sitting on a chair while holding a book in his hand.
The girl was completely unaware of her presence there.
Ell looked at his watch.
Time has passed, but Kate hasn't come yet.
Ell tried to think positively.
Kate must be on her way home.
Not felt, the time has passed 1 hour.
Ell is still waiting for the arrival of Kate who still has not come as well.
Ell looked at the phone screen.
There was no incoming message from the girl.
He waited there for a long time, but the results were still the same.
Kate hasn't come yet.
Alice was still there.
The girl was still struggling with her books.
Moments later, Ell receives an incoming message from Kate.
"I'm sorry Ell. I can't come.
Right now I'm on my way out of town. There's a job I can't leave."
At once Ell felt so disappointed to find a message Kate said could not come there.
Many times he wanted to express his feelings to Kate but repeatedly also the girl could not come and did not hear what she had to listen.
His wait has never been so sweet.
He always waited, but in the end it ended in vain.
Alice put her books back in her bag.
He took his bag and got out of the chair.
When he turned around, he was so surprised to see Ell standing not far from him.
Alice then walked towards Ell, intending to greet him.
"Sister Ell.."
greet Alice kindly.
Ell just kept silent not to return his greeting.
The man looked the other way.
And, what happened to Ell?
The man's face described sadness.
It felt like Alice wanted to ask, but she immediately abandoned her intentions.
Under such conditions, Alice thought Ell might not like her presence there.
But just a few steps, Ell's voice stopped his steps.
"Do you want to play basketball with me?"
Alice slowly turned her body.
He looked at Ell who was looking at him.
Alice smiled and then nodded.
He wants to play basketball with Ell.
Alice put her bag on the chair.
And then walk towards the field.
There Ell was already holding the ball and ready to play.
As usual, Alice always had trouble snatching the ball from Ell.
Until the guy scores over and over again.
But this time Alice is determined to be better than before.
He then approached Ell and again tried to grab the ball.
The ball almost got captured by Alice.
Alice smiled.
But when he raised his face, he was so surprised to see the face of Ell who was so close to him.
Suddenly the eyes of the two meet.
The strange feeling came back to Alice.
Alice quickly turned her gaze in the other direction.
And foolishly he released the ball in his hand.
As a result Ell took the ball and put it in the ring.
Ell smiled looking at Alice who was still in her place.
"Come on, you haven't scored a single point yet."
ell said as he carried the ball in front of Alice.
Alice put on a pouting face.
He knew Ell was laughing at him.
Alice immediately snatched the ball from Ell's hand.
He threw the ball into the ring and succeeded.
It made Alice so happy.
"At least, I managed to score one point Brother."
Alice smiled at Ell.
Just scored one point, already made Alice so happy and satisfied.
It was ridiculous, Ell thought.
After finishing playing basketball, Ell and Alice sat on the floor of the court.
The atmosphere between the two of them was very quiet.
The two chose to shut up.
Alice then tried to melt the atmosphere.
"What did you do here?"
"I'm waiting for someone. And he can't come."
(Is Brother Ell waiting for Sister Kate?)
"Oh really?
I was completely unaware of Brother's presence."
"You didn't see me because you were so focused on the book in your hand."
"Right-natured.
I was studying in preparation for the practicum exam tomorrow."
"May it work."
"Hem?"
Alice looked towards Ell.
Honestly, he was surprised to hear Ell's words just now.
All this time he and Ell had never had a chat all that long.
And this Ell was also the first time Ell had spoken words of support for her."
Ell looked at Alice briefly and then moved from her seat.
"It's almost night.
It's not good to be here."
ell said before leaving Alice.
Alice remained in her place.
He was still digesting the words Ell had spoken earlier.
Alice slowly smiled.
He was happy because in the end he could have a good chat with Ell.
Maybe one day they will become more familiar.
Alice was hoping that would happen.
Alice then stood up and followed Ell's footsteps from behind.
