The score was tight with neither team allowing for mistakes.

Max knew that Liz is capable of catching up quickly, but he was not aware that she is this quick. Liz impressed him by exceeding his expectations (again).

"Are you sure this is your first time?", Hunter asked Liz suspiciously.

"Focus on your game.", Max reminded Hunter with a smirk.

Liz met Max's gaze and she gave him a signal that she is up to something.

"I didn't know that Hunter's focus is so good.", Liz told Max with an honest expression only a child can bring out (and Liz). "I'm not an expert, but based on what you told me, Hunter's form is perfect. I've never seen anyone have such elegant moves. His consistent amazing scores are a confirmation that he is very skilled."

Hunter smiled smugly.

Max decided to play along. "It is undeniable that Hunter is awesome in sports."

Hunter's smile stretched into a grin.

"What are you all gleeful?", Mia asked Hunter.
