Published at 6th of January 2019 07:16:28 AM Chapter 13

It was 2130H . Midori was done with her evening routine . She climbed unto her bed and tapped on her phone . She opened a messaging app and went to her conversation with Dan .

[GreenGal: Hey!]

Few seconds later, Dan was online and replied .

[LeafLad: Hi (^_^)]

[GreenGal: It's opening game tomorrow at GT High School!]

[LeafLad: I know . You'll perform, right?]

[GreenGal: Are you watching?]

[LeafLad: Uhmmm . . . maybe . . . ]

[GreenGal: Hmmp . So that's how it is . . . ]

[LeafLad: Hehe . . . I wouldn't miss it for the world (^_^)]

[LeafLad: Shall I fetch you tomorrow?]

[GreenGal: No need . You'll be there to watch . Our calltime is too early . ]

[LeafLad: But I want to . . . (-,-)]

[GreenGal: Don't be silly . Good night!]

[LeafLad: Good night, MyDori (^_^)]

It was 0600H .

Midori is already in her cheerdance uniform with the varsity jacket on .

"Good luck, Shobe!"

"Thank you! Aunty Lan, I'll be going now . " She waved goodbye and walked out the front door .

She was stunned to see that it was not their car waiting for her outside .

She saw the familiar moonlight blue metallic Porsche Cayenne .

Then Dan went out to open the car door for her, smiling .

"Wha . . . " She looked at him questioningly .

"Get in . You don't want to be late, right?"

Midori furrowed her brows, but complied .

During the ride, she can't help but ask, "How did you know what time . . . "

"Shaoting . " Dan lifted the corners of his lips .

Midori had the sudden realization on her face . Of course, Shaoting would know through Mei . Even if she won't perform, she will help on makeup and other stuff .

Then she looked at Dan . He was wearing loose sweats.h.i.+rt and pants . He also had high cut rubber shoes on .

"Why do you look too sporty for a spectator? Your clothes look so baggy that it's suffocating . "

Dan chuckled . "It's comfy . " he lied .

Once at the venue, she waved him goodbye as she went to do blocking with her squad . Their performance would be at halftime break .

Soon, the games began . The starting 5 from their school consisted of 2 freshmen, 2 juniors and a senior player . As they sat near the bench, Midori was looking around, trying to find Dan's seat, yet she cannot locate him .

She decided to just watch the game in frustration .

Then her phone beeped for notification .

She tapped on the message app .

[LeafLad: Why are you pouting?]

Midori looked around again . Still no sign of Dan .

[GreenGal: Where are you?]

[LeafLad: I'm nearby . . . ]

Midori looked around again .

[LeafLad: Why are desperately looking for me? I'm close to where you are . ]

[GreenGal: I AM NOT! Hmp!] Then she kept her phone and watched the game .

It was halftime and their team is trailing by 16 points .

Despite this, the cheerdance squad performed their best, leaving people in awe of their pyramids and scorpions, with popcorn tosses . Midori was exceptional and attracted a lot of spectators . The uniform in itself consisted of designed tight-fitting leotard with matching skirt and inner shorts . Their pure white sneakers and pompoms flew on every pike, hurdle and herkie . Everyone loved the performance . One of their team's benchwarmers in a hooded jacket, covering half of his face has a wide grin with pearly white teeth .

The second half was starting . Since their team was trailing by a lot of points, they switched their lineup .

This time, 4 senior players who competed throughout their 2 years in high school came up, including the team captain, Long Yun . However, the fifth player seemed to be a rookie who is playing for the first time .

However, to Midori's surprise, she is way too familiar with that face . . . and that smile!
