Me and Yuni were fighting at the break. I sat a little far away from him, but I could still hear him telling two other grade kids.
''Bird tried to fly the time of the Math lesson." Yuni's voice sounded faint. Everyone laughed and looked at me.
"You tripped me Yuni" I shouted furiously. My mouth was full of food, as I shouted. Everyone laughs at me again.
Yuni said something, I couldn't hear it, because it was too noisy at rest. She sneered at me and flicked her hair behind her shoulders.
I stood up and wanted to get to him. I don't know what I'm doing. But I was so angry that I couldn't think clearly. Luckily Colin showed up near me, then told me to sit back down.
"How much four plus two?" godfather
"Fourty-two," I replied with glaring eyes. "You believe in Yuni ?" much grim.
"Of course I trust Yuni" he said as he opened his food parcel. "Yuni ya Yuni"..
"What do you mean?" my snapping.
He shrugged his shoulders. He grimaced, "Either."
Colin's pretty handsome. His eyes are brown, his nose is sharp and his smile is cute too. Her hair was fine but never combed. So she always wears a hat to cover her messy hair.
I glanced at Yuni. Yuni and her two friends, another classmate, were either talking about what. My gaze was so sharp towards Yuni
While tidying up the rest of the food Colin said.
"Don't kill Yuni, you'll have a hard time later "
I laughed, laughing mocking "You're kidding Colin ! I can get an award for killing the most annoying kid in our class!"
"If you kill Yuni, your basketball team can lose later" Colin said, confirming his slanted hat.
"Oh, that's right, too!" I screamed while hitting his arm. Basic Colin he was always joking, that's why I'm happy to be friends with him.
I'm, of course, the dumbest player, I admit, my game is really bad, like I said, I can't be like that on a basketball court.
But Mr. Edi insisted. Mr. Edi is a girls' team basketball coach, he is assigned to train 7th graders. And he forced me to join.
"Shopie, you're so tall !" said me. "You have to play basketball . You have a natural talent !"
Well, I do have a natural talent, a natural talent to be a fool. I couldn't shoot at all, I couldn't shoot, and worse I couldn't run without tripping over my own shoes. My hands are small, although the rest of my body is not, so I am not very good at throwing or catching balls.
I think Mr. Edi has learned a lesson: height is not everything in basketball, even if it is needed. But now he's embarrassed to get me off the team. So I'm still joining in. I trained hard. I mean, I feel like I'm gonna be good at basketball too, lest my game get worse. If only Yuni wasn't that bad, and if only she could be a little friendly to me.
But as Colin said. "Yuni ya Yuni". He always snapped at me during practice, making fun of me, he said, and it makes me feel sixty centimeters tall (which is what I sometimes hope for) if I'm short maybe Mr. Edi won't force me to join the basketball team.
"Bird, just fly away from this team, your game is so bad, you're going to make this team difficult!" yuni Exclamation.
Looking into his eyes, "If you speak again, I'll punch you!" his rant just called me "bird.
"What's going on, Shop?" why do you talk like that" Colin's voice made me feel a little less emotional.
"Yuni has been making fun of me" I replied emotionally.
"That's Shop !" you're a good boy!" exclaim Colin
"Oya," I snapped in annoyance. "What is my good nature? My height ?"
"No, you're clever and funny" Colin said, patting me on the shoulder.
"Thank you so much "I said, with a frown.
"And you're very very good" he added. "You're very kind, very kind, may I have your potato chips?" He grabbed the package before I could hide it.
I know there must be something behind the compliment. I watched Colin brush my fart chips. I wasn't offered one bit. Then the bell rang and I immediately stepped towards the classroom. And prepare to take a lesson in Craft.
