12 Training

It's summertime, but you can see Eazy running up a mountain with Rasta sitting in a wagon tied to my waist as I run. My body is worn out, and I'm tired of dragging Rasta up this mountain. ( my unlimited stamina only applies to me when I'm playing sports so during training or other activities I still get tired) I continue to work out all summer to get my body ready for high school.

Flo is done with school and moves to Minnesota for a change of scenery. Opal starts practicing to be an actress, and Rasta just helps support me in my training while looking out for the investments we made over the years. With the payout from the accident and life insurance, we were able to invest in many other companies that I thought were going to be successful in the future, so in a few years, our returns are going to be crazy when that happens.I couldn't reach the top of this mountain, so we turned around and went back down because it was getting late. When we got home, Opal was watching a movie with her friends, and as soon as they saw me with my shirt off, they started drooling, which made me laugh and quickly headed up to get cleaned and dressed. My body was well refined after doing so much training these past weeks. I had a six-pack and well-toned muscles to go with it.Opal was embarrassed. Her friends were acting like that and quickly told them to stop. They all laughed and commented that I'm one fine looking boy which Opal said no he's not and he's off-limits to you girls so drop it, and then they did and continued to watch the movie, but some of them still stole glances at the area I went off too. Not knowing what was happening, I came out dressed and went to find something to eat when they saw me once again come out. They all had stars in their eyes, but I just laughed and ignored them because they were little girls in my eyes.I got something to eat and headed for bed, passing out. This training continues for the rest of the summer, sometimes we went to cookouts or went back to the old neighborhood to hang out or play some ball with John and the crew. I also told John's father about some companies that would be good to invest in making him grateful and wondered how a child like me was able to come up with such ideas of which companies to invest in and which one not to.I simply told him that I did a lot of research. I didn't want to rush back into the game playing for money yet since I just came from a serious injury, so all I did was focus on training and getting back into good shape for the rest of the summer. The school had finally started, and it made me excited to be starting and seeing new people again. High school is much bigger, and the girls are more bouncers than the ones in middle school.I had to go to my homeroom and almost got lost in the crowd. After I got the gist of how high school works and all of our classes and lunchtime and when school ends, I was prepared for my first class. ( not going to get into all the details of each class) I took the class PE once again because it was required.I get changed, and I met the coach for the first time; he's also the PE teacher and the JV team coach, so I introduced myself by telling him my name Eazy, and I'll be doing the tryouts when winter comes around for basketball season. He's excited to see me because I'm a little bit taller this time around. He asked me what position I play, and I tell him shooting guard he said okay that's no problem he was looking for one for next season because the 10th graders all moved on to the varsity team and he doesn't have any shooting guard so I'll be a perfect fit in there, but he would have to see me play first of course.He decided to have today's class based on basketball just to see if there were any potential players out among us. He started by letting us play one-on-one games. He matched me up with this guy that was about 6' 2. This guy's name was Dawn we quickly shoot for the ball I take the shot first and miss it because I'm a little bit rusty and then he shoots it and makes it, so he gets the ball first trying to use his height against me.He backed me up into the post but realizes that I'm stronger than I look because I've been working out all summer long, so I had some gains, but I still looked a little bit skinny, so after he saw that it wasn't working out, he started to use his height and tried to shoot over me, but when he goes up in the air, I'm right up there with him because I had to do a lot of leg work this summer, so I got right up there with him, and I blocked his shot which impressed the coach.I quickly got the ball ran back to the three-point line and took the shot he didn't think I'll make it since the first time we shot for the ball I missed it, but I activated my skill this time, and I made it this time which shocked him and impressed the coach furthermore. He checked the ball and then I quickly took the shot activated my skill once again since I had five shots, but now, after activating it twice, I had three left in me, but we were only playing to seven points, so I made the shot again giving me two more points.I was up by four points, and he had zero points so now he's checking me pretty well so I pump-faked him like I was about to take the shot and got him in the air and blew past him and then I laid it up for one point which gave me a five-point lead and then checked the ball once again, and he's checking me hard, so I backed it up to that half-court line, and he's just like laughing and let me because he thinks I can't make it from there so I activate my skill once again shot it from there and it went in.At this point, the coach was clapping his ass off, excited about getting a new shooting guard. He came up to me and shook my hand and said, welcome to the teamwork hard so we can dominate the basketball world together. After gym class, nothing exciting happened for the rest of the day except for when I was walking down the hall, and it's like everything shone out, and I see this girl at her locker with her friends. She was like an angel; it felt like I heard angels singing at that moment. She was Spanish at the height of 5'6 with long legs and a B cup bust with a princess like a face.I wanted to talk to her, but it felt like high school all over again. I was shy, but thanks to my old soul, I was able to find the courage and at least say hi to her. I start by saying, "Hi, my name is Eazy; what's your name?'' She looks at me up and down and then says none of your business. I quickly laughed and said, "Okay, none of your business. I'll catch you later," and then I walk away. I see her laughing with her friends, but I know that's the first step to meeting her.When I reached my last class art, the Lord God Almighty of the heavens and beyond answers my prayers, and there she is sitting alone. I approached her and said, "Hi, none of your business I see we meet again. I knew you couldn't do without me after meeting me once." She laughs and says, "come have a seat next to me; I'm curious out of all the girls that were around me. You came to speak to me first. I told her what happened about the angels singing, and she laughed so hard we both got in trouble with the teacher for a brief moment".We continued to talk until the end of the class when I took out my phone, which surprised her because not many people had phones with cameras installed on it. I took her number, and she told me her real name is Sandra after laughing.
