" OUT! OUT ! OUT " Myra jump up and down grinning like a fool.

" ITS OKAY ITS OKAY " I clap motivating my team .

" The game just started, we can win this game " I cheered for my team who are nothing but losers and can't even catch a DAMN BALL! 

Kids these days ! Where is the energy?
 

I shake the tip of my cap feeling heat reaching my brain .

Who the hell suggested to play game at such a scorching he- 

" You did '' a voice whispered near my ear . I jump back, placing my hand on my heart to stabilize it .

Nafisa scowl at me " if you wouldn't be so dary , the we would been winning here " 

" Mr. Mafia would you like to join us" she mimic me in worst voice possible .

" How am I supposed to know he is tbid good? " I was whining when my eyes fell on Khalid who smirked in a mocking way .

I stuck my tongue like a spoilt child , his smirk faded replacing scowl looking away .

" Call everyone here, we need to discuss our strategy " I ordered Nafisa to fix my cap , cracking my neck .

I realised she didn't budge " everyone ?" 

" You , me and Ibrahim left " she spat ''everyone is out " watching her expression I am pretty sure she wants to kill me .

I smile embarrassed " yeah... Forgot right " 

"Call Ibrahim , we need to discuss our strategy " I told her

" How do you lose ?" She raised her one eyebrow completely doubting my winning skill .

" Just . Get . Him " I was inch away punching her face

" Whatever " muttering annoyedly , she called out Ibrahim who surprisingly decided to join my team in Nick of time .

" Hey kid ! " Khalid call me , I gulp the authority in his voice always gets me .

" Are you sure you want to continue this game? " he smirked, challenging me .

I huffed in anger he just bruised my non- existence ego ...

" Yes and we will win " my big mouth spoke again without my permission .

You need to shut up Amira , you are losing brutally ....

Even though outside I had a proud smirk on my face but inside I was rolling on the ground crying for the embarrassment I have to face for having such a loser team .

I whine , I stomp my feet , I even began in front the Khalid to get the hell out of here all inside my imagination.

He shrugged his shoulders slightly , his face held satisfaction , he was enjoying my misery. I can see it in his eyes .

Arrrghhh.... 

Ibrahim, Nafisa and I huddle " okay listen , we need to pick up our game alright " I whispered/yelled.

Ibrahim , Nafisa exchange look " then what were we doing for so long ?" Nafisa again opened her big mouth .

I stomp her leg " I knew I should have been in Bhai team " she hiss in pain .

" Okay focus " Ibrahim stop me from snacking her head .

" Okay Myra is batting in the next round , we can out her easily " Nafisa and I nodded in union .

" Api , you will be wicket keeper , I will be balling and Ami- " I waited for him to tell me about my position .

" Try to stay away from the ground " with that he stood straight and my mouth was about to touch the ground .

" What - I " I gave them a ridiculous look .

Ibrahim gave me a sorry look before running away to take his position while Nafisa left too not before laughing at my face .

I stomped my feet but took position anyway .

Ibrahim throw the ball at Myra , and surprisingly she hit the ball in the air .

" AMIRA CATCH !" I heard Nafisa shout but I froze as soon as I saw the ball coming toward me .

I stared at the ball in the sky as it was about to hit my face brutally. Suddenly Khalid appeared grabbing my waist and we both fell rolling on the floor .

Slowly I open my tightly close eyes only to met the most beautiful crystal green eyes I have ever seen in my entire life , his face inch away from mine , while he acquire the position above mine , his left hand fixed below my back protecting me getting hurt and the right hand made a bridge on the ground keeping the distance from our bodies .

I was clutching his shirt with my both hands tightly while my heart refused to beat at a normal pace . His cologne filled my nose, making me instantly addicted .

Breaking the ice speak between us , he ask " are you okay " 

" Hmm?" For the first time , he used a soft voice on me .

" AMIRA ! ARE YOU OKAY ". It felt like reality slapped us both . Khalid quickly stood up like my body just burned him .

I still laid on the ground staring at his tall figure .

My mind and heart are not working in the same synced way .

" Amira"! Ibrahim help me stand up , I swept my back to get rid of dry leaves .

" You okay ?" Rabiya Aunty asks concern coming toward me .

I nodded .... My eyelock with the Khalid who just look away the second our eyes met.

" The game is over , go home kids it's getting late " with that he walk away not even glancing back at once ....

" COME ON GUYS GO HOME, THE GAME IS OVER " Ibrahim wave at kids in dismissed .
 

" He just left because we were winning. " I shrugged, flipping my hair .

Ibrahim stared at me in disbelief " which world does she live in ??" He ask Nafisa and Nafisa still gazing me like I am some maniac .

" It's you, " I pointed my finger at him. " If you didn't suck at this game , we could have won. " I put all the blame on him .

His mouth hung open as he glance at Ayesha aunty and Nafisa , who were trying to suppress their laugh " I - I suck at the game " 

" Yeah but it's okay " I put my hand on his shoulder " try practice sometime " I pat his cheek lightly leaving him bewildered .
