THE GIFT
"Dairen, this is not the kind of performance I was expecting from you. I was expecting so much. I saw you play before it wasn't like this? Where is that old Daerin? Because it was him whom I made the offer with." Coach Alex bursted out on Daerin during the half-time break of the game as Daerin slumped his ass on the bench, looking so tired and unmotivated.
"I'm sorry coach, it has been a month but I think I haven't moved on from my wife's death. I can still feel the shock of how things happened that night and I had been clinging on to guilt." Daerin rubbed her face with both palms trying to hide away his little tears.
