"H-hi, Amada," Olivia greeted wearily. "How's basketball training?"

"As usual," Maverick pounded his chest proudly. "I did amazing."

Since the two arrived in the last few seconds of their training, they had no way for sure how to confirm his words.

"You barely made any points," Oliver grumbled, nursing his arm that Maverick had just pushed, causing him to tumble a little.

Maverick turned to face Oliver, placing his index finger on his lips.

"Don't embarrass me in front of the new girl, Captain!"

Oliver raised an eyebrow. "And why's that?"

"I-I-I can't spell it out for you in front of her!" He stammered, a blush creeping on his cheeks. "I don't want to be 𝘵𝘰𝘰 obvious!"
