Chapter 17: Quarelling
*BEEP*
The sounds of basketballers working intensely on their dribbles, passes and dunks filled the hall...
"Wow! They're awesome! Just look at them, Mimi! I'm so sure they're gonna win this year's nationals!" Ruby chipped excitedly. Mimi turned and smiled at her. "Yes, I agree too. My uncle said they've got lots of potential, and if they concentrate harder, it won't be a problem," Mimi replied. The two sat on the spectator stand watching the swift flow of moment moving from one player to another.
"Hmm. You seem more interested in Kiyoshi on the court, Mimi." Ruby teased. "Huh? What? Ruby! That's not really true!" she retorted. "Haha. Just kidding. Hey, look! He just waved... probably specially to you, eh?" Ruby teased once more as she waved back to Kiyoshi. Mimi continued watching.
*DUNK*
Mimi turn to look. Matt just leaped and dunked the ball in to the hoop with precise accuracy. 'Hm! Such a show off!' Mimi thought. 'Matt... what does he mean?' Her thoughts wondered back to the conversation with Matt...
[Flashback]
Mimi: "I-I don't need to do any of your homework anymore, right?"
Matt: "Yes," Matt said. "And, is it true you do have that incident taped? You know..."
Mimi: "No. It's a lie."
[End of Flashback]
'A lie? Why would he want to lie to me?'
"Mimi? Mimi, are you there?" Mimi blinked a few times, then found Ruby waving her hand in front of her.
"Oh, sorry Ruby. I just dazed off I guess. What happened?" Mimi asked smilingly, trying to cover up with an excuse.
"Ha. Nothing really. Their gonna start playing match now. This will be so exciting!"
"Wow Ruby, I didn't know you can be so excited over this." Mimi commented.
Ruby looked at her wide eyed. Then perked up, "To tell you the truth, I'd never really seen an actual basketball training before." Mimi simply nodded.
* * *
*BEEP BEEP**
"Okay, boys. I'm gonna split you into two groups and let you play against each other. Kiyoshi, one group. Matt, one group. Blake, you're in Kiyoshi's group. Alex......"
[Playing match] (a/n: don't wanna go into details. gomen. too lazy.)
"Come on Jason! Dribble! Pass! Yes!!! Oh my gosh! Shoot! Shoot!.........." Ruby was jumping up and down uncontrollably, and at the same time shouting and cheering out loud like there's no tomorrow. Mimi had only managed to calm her down for a few moments and she was back at it.
"Ruby! Cool down!"
"Oh. Sorry Mimi. I'm just so excited!"
"Good. Now don't-"
"Snatch that ball! Stronger man! C'mon, you can do it!!!!!!!!!"
"Oh my god. Why do I even try..."
* * *
*BEEP BEEP BEEP*
The match was over. It was quite a nice draw and everyone was sweating.
"Whoa! Phew. That was tiring. I think I'll have sore throat soon," Ruby said. Mimi sweatdropped. "Well, I did warn you not to shout so loudly, you know?" Mimi said. Ruby smiled, "Haha. I'm too stubborn. I guess I won't do that again."
"NOBODY TOLD YOU TO!" Blake said roughly. Ruby turned away from Mimi and looked at him. Blake was wiping his perspiration off his face with his towel and gulping down water. "What did you say?" Ruby asked angrily. "I said, Nobody Told You To! Do you realise how irritating were you? Shouting and shouting non-stop like some mad woman. None of us could concentrate!!!" Blake harshly shoved his comments at her. "T-Then that's too bad!" Ruby tried to argue back.
Mimi looked at her friend. 'Blake, you shouldn't be so mean,' she thought while shaking her head. "No, Ruby. Calm down. It's not worth fighting with him." Mimi attempted to smooth out the situation. "It's okay, Mimi. I'll see you later." Ruby replied and just grabbed her bag and left without saying anything. "Ruby! Ruby!" Mimi called out, but she had already started running out the door.
* * *
[Training ended]
"Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid! Moron! Jerk! Bastard! Uncivilised! Barbarian! Ass!... urgh!!!" Ruby was cursing and cursing and cursing about Blake. She couldn't help but be angry at him (duh).
//
Blake saw how Ruby ran out in a hurry. 'She deserveed that!' he thought though he knew he had been too nasty. While stuffing his things back into his bag, Blake noticed the blue umbrella. "Bye guys, I gotta go now. C'ya!" he said and left immediately.
//
"Hm! No wonder I kept sneezing just now... someone was cursing me!"
Ruby stopped at her tracks and turned to see Blake with a smirk on his face. "What?" she replied.
"I heard every word you said, Poodle! You better stop talking bad about me or I'll hit you!"
"Wow! I'm like so terrified!"
"Shut up. I came here to return your stupid umbrella!" Blake spoke. Ruby's eyes grew wider. 'How did he know it was me?'
"That isn't mine."
"Yeah right. If it wasn't you who had that wild idea of placing it there pretending that you're a kind soul, then who would it be?"
Ruby only became more angry. "Stop insulting me you ... PIG!"
"PIG? First I'm a barbarian, now I'm a pig. What about you? Pea-brain!"
Ruby hated it when she quarrels with Blake. She didn't really understood why, but as much as she didn't want to admit and acknowledge, her heart will ache everytime he retorts her with more insults.
"I HATE YOU!" she shouted forcing her tears back.
"Well guess what, I HATE YOU TOO!" There, he said it. It was an insult that generalised all his other insults.
"Fine!"
"Yeah, fine!"
Ruby snatched the umbrealla in his hands and threw it into the dustbin, before running away. While Blake simply stood there motionless and speechless for a few seconds before starting his way back home.
