Chapter 14 (Sports Event - Part 3)

Era thought for a while and then said, "Can I have some time to think about it?"

Ishan stood and said, "You can. But, until you think. Let's play." And a huge smile on his face.

Jiyu also with a lot of passion stood and said, "Yes! Let's play!"

Era also stood and with Ishan and Jiyu, he started walking towards the basketball court for a game.

After an hour, students started coming but still haven't entered in the court.

In the basketball court, Ishan, Jiyu and Era, totally wet of sweat practicing of giving a perfect throw in the hoop. They were smiling and enjoying the game.

After a while, Sara with her friends started walking towards the court but now, no dribbling voice was there.

Sara and her friends with being first to enter the court after Era, Ishan and Jiyu opened the gate of the court and started entering in it. But Ishan, Jiyu and Era were not visible. But Sara also don't knew that Ishan, Jiyu and Era were already there from an hour.

Suddenly Sara saw Ishan, Jiyu and Era lying down on the ground. They were breathing rapidly because they have played a lot.

Her friends also saw them and everyone was confused that what... What is Ishan, Jiyu and Era doing here?

Ishan with closing his eyes said, "It was fun playing basketball, wasn't it?"

Era said, "Yes, you both came made the game more enjoyable, thanks for coming early today."

Jiyu sat and said, "Ok then!!! It's final, we are coming to school every day early!!!"

Ishan also sat and said, "It's not a bad idea. We just want chances to play basketball at the last."

Era said, "It will be more fun then--"

"Um..." Sara made some voice.

All of the three turned towards Sara.

Ishan stood and said, "Oh, good morning, Sara. Meet our new friend, Era."

Era and Jiyu also stood and Era said, "Nice to meet you." Introducing himself.

Sara said, "From when are you three playing? Let me guess, a hour."

Sara's friends were a little bit shocked by Sara's guess because they thought that they might are in the stadium since the students started coming.

"Um... Your guess was almost near. We are playing from... Around... One and a half hour." Said Ishan and huge smile on his face showing how desperate he, Jiyu and Era are.

And Sara's friends were shocked.

Sara was able to guess near it because she has played with Ishan and Jiyu and can guess by how much tired they are, they were lying on the ground totally wet!

Ishan and Jiyu with saying see ya started leaving with Era. They were moving towards their classrooms to give attendance to their class teachers. Although no studies were going on because the sports event was going.

Sara smiled and said, "Oh my, my. How cute your smiles can be, Ishan?" And she smiled.

Era went to his path and Ishan and Jiyu, after giving attendance started moving towards badminton court because currently, a badminton match was going on and Sara has also participated in it and the match was of her.

Ishan and Jiyu reached the court, took their seats and the game has not started yet but soon Sara and her opponent arrived on the court and the game began.

Sara is an all over excellent student. She is good in studies, good in sports and everything but when it comes about basketball, Ishan and Jiyu are of another leagues. And she admires it as well and they both also admire it.

The whole time, Ishan and Jiyu shouting and cheering Sara. Sara was happy for her friends coming and cheering but soon their cheering started becoming out of control that teachers have to request them to leave and with being good boys, they silently left the match.

Ishan and Jiyu in the running ground, out of courts, sitting and doing nothing, they were just being bored and looking at the sky and sometimes at the grass.

Ishan said, "Our match is next, right? With which class is our match?"

Jiyu said, "Who knows, we don't even see at the board that which class are we going to compete."

Ishan and Jiyu again became silent and just hearing the sound of wind being blown and nothing else.

Sara, after her match running towards Ishan and Jiyu and finally, with being exhausted, reached till then and sat.

Ishan said, "How was your match? And is our basketball match going to start a few minutes later?"

Sara said, "I won. And currently, break has started so your match will be after the break."

The environment was totally silent and nobody making voice. Like they are fallen in the silence.

Suddenly Sara recalled something and said, "Wait, and what did you both did in my match?! You both were shouting like hell! How embarassing it was."

When Ishan and Jiyu didn't responded, she understood that they both are in some kind of thought or are enjoying with silence so Sara also maintained the silence.

A few minutes later, Ishan stood and said, "Let's go for meal, I am hungry."

Jiyu also stood and Sara as well and they all together started moving towards the cafeteria of the school for meal.

Ishan and Jiyu on the basketball court were playing basketball. It was their match with Class 11 - III.

The ball was under Jiyu's hand, dribbling a he threw for a three points shot. And it was a perfect throw with a goal.

Sara was cheering for Ishan and Jiyu and Era was also there for something to say.

The match again continued and Ishan's team on defensive.

Suddenly Ishan steal the ball but suddenly his opponent, who was just dribbling the ball before Ishan, fall down and started acting of being hurted.

The game was paused and Ishan got a foul.

"Huh? I don't even touched him." Said Ishan.

Sara and Jiyu started shouting that it was not a foul and the opponent was pretending but Ishan calmed them from eye contact and said to let the game continue.
