the besties...

Rome flew to the air and rotated.

360!

Bang!

The arena exploded because of his dunk.

"White boy got bounce!" He flexed.

"Im brown. im brown." He got excited.

"Fukk it. I decided. Use politically correct term now. Im a white boy."

Internal debate is good but not this nonsense topic.

He better doing stand up comedy then.

"Got bounce boy!"

"Haha"

"Nice!"

"low key rome low key!"

Rome secretly giggling.

"Ahhh..smell of success..." he giggled twice more.

Its just sweat..

The game continued.

Back to the offense, Rome running around again without the ball.

He pops at the corner then to the right wing opposite Marcus, their center.

He sneaked out and rotated with Nikola.

Then set screen for the PG to create space.

Swissshhh

Simple play.

He dab Rome for nice screen tho its illegal. The ref got "Conditioned". hahaha

Back and forth back and forth.

A minute to go in the third.

Even 45.

Rome caught the ball from the in bound.

He is posting against a much bigger and wide opponent.

Backing up, giving weight to his right. Making the defender he would go inside.

But Rome stopped.

Arm bar and jumped back with his hand raised high, he flicked his fingers.

"Swisssh."

Skyhook successful.

"Hey hey. I got juice. haha" He runs back with a dumb look.

He and Nick Young must be besties.

The fans cheered because of the display of Rome's arsenal.

3 point, dunks, and skyhook.

Savvy...

He is just cheating if they know. Duh.

Rome high five the guys and went back to defend.

The Skyhook was practiced these months. With Luck 100x, he can do it wit closed eyes. Hehe

Back and forth until the sound of quarter ended.

"Good job boy." John high five him.

"Ro."

"get it."

His team mates also celebrated.

The impact of Rome is seen by them immediately.

They just cant believe he has something in his sleeve. Haha

If u dont practice what Abby makes u practice.

Continue in ur own peril. haha

Abby is his coach.

He learned well.

Rome is back at the bench with 2 for 2 mid range, 2 hooks and the one dunk and 1 trey.

In his debut, he scored 13 and 4 rebounds and 2 assist.

The performance is solid.

And he did it in just 10 minutes. Haha

John has no meaning of putting him back.

Their guess is correct, Rome have improved by leaps and bounds.

The game ended in a win.

59 - 48.

13 4 2 stat sheet.

He feels good and thinks he can go for 40 to 50 anytime he wants.

When he got home, he was surprised that a cake is lit on the table.

"Congrats son. U did great tonight."

Rome felt sour in his nose. "Thank u mom. That game was for u. Hehe"

Amy must be asleep.

He texted Abby.

But Abby is at San Diego.

He smiled and nodded.

Shaking his head and sighed.

Lit a cigar and went to his balcony.

Cigar is best for an athlete.

"Hows the other side?" He thot of his former life.

"Holidays. Ill go back. Or before the draft." He promised himself this.

He wants to see if this is the same world or a new one.

He wants to see if there's another him in 2014.

That's killing him softly and doesn't want to know yet.

He loves his life now. He has a mother. Abby is also there even tho its not all he wants but still, she is there.

It would be so easy for Rome to control her emotions. Or other people to do his bidding in this world. But he didn't. He wants to live in normal life.

Tho he practices the Mystic Arts piously, its for the fascination of super powers or for the long life.

Feeling bored. He went out to play. Still early 10pm.

Nothing much happened.

Just hang out from where La la land shoot.

Rome first time seeing LA night sky.

Next morning. He didn't go to the gym.

Whats the point when Abby is not there.

Besides, they had a game last night.

Picking Amy to play outside.

"Amy, lets build a small ferris wheel here, would u like that?"

"Ferris wheel? What is ferris wheel Ro?" Amy asked innocently.

Rome then explained what is a ferris wheel. haha
