Not Your Girl

"Noelle? Is something wrong?" 

I went back to reality after Ericka talked to me. "N-No, I was just thinking about something." 

No matter how much I think about that, I won't know it since it's grandpa Kenta's business. He's kind to me, but I can't really read what goes inside his head. 

'I'm still confused as to why he's helping me but wouldn't let me talk to my parents.' Even though I don't want to doubt someone that's helping me, I can't stop myself. 

"Let's go, Noelle." 

I slapped both of my cheeks. This is not the time to be distracted or else I'll drown again. With that, I focused on the training and forget about the questions, I'll think about it later when I'm done with the training. 

"Everyone, listen." Coach Samantha called for our attention after training. "Since the semifinals are just around the corner, I'm sure you all are ready by now." She said with a smile.
