Chapter 151 The National High School Champions.h.i.+p 8

In the third period, the team of Bats was beginning to be anxious about the outcome of the game, they knew that if they did not try something they would end up being eliminated, then without much to do the team coach suggested that they try the shots out with Daniel and Alexander.

This was a way to get away from the fierce defense of the opponent and make more points, so Daniel took the ball in the line of three points and pa.s.sed to the SG of his team, SG held the ball for only a while and pa.s.sed the ball back for Daniel to take the shot out and make 3 points for his team.

Daniel was too fast to make the shot out, so Jake who had to keep an eye on all the opponent's moves to try to steal and stop the opponent's attack can not react in time, Jake reached the three-point line and saw that the Bats' team was trying to make a stronger defense for this period of the game.

Jake made a quick signal and then pa.s.sed the air pa.s.s to Mark who ran and made the dunk after catching the pa.s.s on top and completing the Alley-oop to make 2 points for the Elite team, after that move the cheer celebrated again, this was a great resource for making the points and besides increasing the morale of the team still left the opponents discouraged.

Since Jake's pa.s.s was perfect Mark had only to set the time to do the dunk, Mark was excited again, even though he was insecure before the game with Jake's words and his great performance he was feeling confident again.

After that Daniel took the ball and started to organize another attack and went up to the three-point line, he pa.s.sed the ball to Alexander who quickly got rid of Harrison and can make the shot from outside to make 3 more points.

Jake grabbed the ball and started another attack by going to the three-point line, getting there he swiftly pa.s.sed Daniel and advanced to the inside area, the BF team PF tried to stop Jake who pa.s.sed the ball to Carter who was free, Carter received the pa.s.s and did the dunk to make 2 more points for the Elite team.

Even though Carter did not really like to do the dunk he knew he did very well and felt it was the right move this time, and he was right, even though with two attacks the Bats' team took a little advantage on the scoreboard they felt evil in taking two dunks in two moves.

With these two moves Jake had already realized that the goal of the Bats team was to spend time and make the shot out at the end of the play, as the ball had to go through many players before the shot outside, Jake felt he could do some interceptions and get more steals for it.

And so it was until the end of the third period, the Elite team was winning with an 18-point lead and Jake had achieved the Triple Double, he had 22 points, 14 a.s.sists and 11 steals throughout the game so far, Eric was who he was more celebrating in the stands.

The whole game that Jake did a triple-double followed was to increase his record, and so the matter that Eric would do would be better too, Mark was also playing very well and had done 16 points and got 8 rebounds so far, close to more a Double-Double in that champions.h.i.+p.

In the fourth period, the team of Bats realized that the defense of the Elite team had already discovered their strategy and so some pa.s.ses were intercepted by Jake, so in this last period they decided to try to direct the shot from outside.

So they tried a lot in the last period, but Jake did not seem to want to give hope to the opponents, so the game ended with Jake getting 3 blocks in the last period and doing 9 points with shots from outside, total Jake made 33 points in the game.

Mark scored 11 rebounds in that game and double-double, Alexander had 28 points and Daniel had 21 points and 8 a.s.sists, it was a shame the rest of the team was a little weak or they could have made a better game.

Now only two games left for the national champions.h.i.+p final, Jake came home to tell Eva about the victory, Eva was relieved and happy about it, the closer she got to the final of the national champions.h.i.+p, the more nervous she was before the games.

After that Jake went to rest, he was very happy with the performance of the team in the game, especially Mark, Jake wanted to be able to continue with him in these last two games of the final, Jake did not expect him to make another triple Double in that game, coach Mike told him while Jake tried to help the team this would end up happening naturally.

After a few days, Jake went to Anna's house again, it had already been a few weeks since the conversation they had about Anna helping Eva with the restaurant, Jake wanted to see if Anna already had some results about it.

After all, it was only a little over a month before Jake told his mother about the restaurant, after which it would have to be opened quickly, in fact, Jake had noticed that Eva had been strange in these last months.

Jake knew what was going on in his mother's mind, it was true that Eva had a terrible job at a restaurant, and it was also true that Eva wanted to spend much more time caring for her child at home while he was little.

So Jake got what he always wanted and got Eva out of that job after he got the sponsors.h.i.+p money, thanks to that they could spend a lot more time together and even make several trips what would be impossible with Eva working.

But now Jake was already 16, he was not a child but Eva had to stay home to take care of him, besides, Jake would soon go to a university and maybe had to leave the house, thinking about that Eva who was very proud and achieved everything alone before in her life began to feel bad about the current situation.

Eve knew that her dream of having a restaurant could not be fulfilled so she was thinking that as Jake was big now she could start working again but she knew that because Jake was making lots of money he would not let her mother work anywhere to earn little.

But Jake knew Eva better than she thought and knew what she was thinking, so even if she had to lose a few million in the future by failing to invest he decided to build the restaurant for Eva now.

After arriving at Anna's house she opened the door and led Jake into the living room while fetching some tea and biscuits for Jake after a while Anna came back with tea and cookies and another folder under her arm.

"I know you're very busy these days with the national champions.h.i.+p final approaching and would not come to visit me for any reason."

"That's not true, even with little time I'd still be here just to talk to you, it calms me down a lot."

"Even though I know this is a lie, I like it, you came here to talk about your mother's restaurant, right?"

"Yes, it's only a few months before I tell her everything, it would be exciting if you had already found some staff to speed up the opening of the restaurant."

"I did what I could, I found some employees who would be the waiters or the waitresses, I also found a staff for the cleaning and the general affairs of the restaurant, who will cook it will probably be mainly Eva and me, but I have to wait to know what will be the restaurant to hire the rest of the staff."

"While the suppliers that you have managed to find are perfect, you can have any type of restaurant, the rest we can buy in the morning market, which is cooler, we will only have problems if Eva decides to do dishes with imported food or seafood, but I do not achoo she'll do it. "

Jake was very happy to have called Anna to help, without someone like her mother would be lost for a few years before she could get used to doing things in the restaurant normally.

But Anna had even experience in a first-cla.s.s restaurant that was more demanding in quality, to do something like this was easier, the only thing Anna said she did not understand well was the finances, but Jake and Emily would take care of it.

Jake hoped that the day Eve went to the restaurant was soon, he wanted to see how happy she would be to fulfill her dream and be able to work quietly for life if she wanted to.

"Thank you so much, Anna, to meet you was one of the best things that happened in my life, thanks to this, my mom and I were alone, we got a new family and you're going to help my mother with her dream."

"I also think like that, actually a few years ago before meeting you after I no longer had the restaurant or my family, the love of cooking was the only thing that kept me alive, and now I have one more time family and a restaurant to work with."

After that Jake and Anna talked about many other things, and only later that night that Jake went home, he was sincere before when he talked to Anna, after going to her house he felt more relaxed.

After a few days, Jake went to the mall to relax because it was only a few days to the semifinal and the pressure was too great on him, after eating ice cream while strolling the mall he saw something that had impressed him.
