The volleyball game for the Cavalry team and Gladiators team began.
The ball came from the Cavalry team first, sending it to the opposite court. Their setter, Emma was able to hit it back with Carissa and Jazmin assisting her. The ball was sent to the Cavalry’s side and scored a point.
Valerie served the ball from the Gladiators’ court, and scored right away and was followed up with another point for them.
Susana called for a time-out for their team.
“What’s wrong, team? Focus on the game. Know your positions..Dawn, switch with Leah. You will be the Middle Blocker and Leah will be the Outside Hitter.”
“Yes, ma’am.&r
Keenan rested his elbows against his thighs and his attractive hands dangled in front of him. Dawn sat cross-legged, her hands rested on her lap.Their eyes followed the players as they passed the ball from one player to another.“Excuse me, Miss?” The person on her other side suddenly spoke.Her brows furrowed. She turned to him. “Yes?”“What’s your course?”She was taken aback. “I’m not in College yet.”“Ohhh.. I’m sorry, I thought you are.. Errrr–not that you look old enough to be someone already in College..Umm–
Dawn and Keenan were on a roll, announcing game results and calling players to gather for their events.Soon, a senior student came to the booth bringing with him the fish bowl almost full of folded papers.“Alright! Shall we read a secret message?” She said over the microphone.“YES!!!!!” The students nearby screamed.“My goodness, such excitement!” She chuckled. She scrambled the folded papers and picked up one. She unfolded it and raised her brow at Keenan.“What?” He mouthed.She giggled. She then turned to Evelyn and showed her the paper.
Alvin held Cierra’s hand tighter and led her to walk around so they would pass in front of the announcer’s booth.He wanted to see how Dawn would react when she saw him holding somebody else’s hand. He wanted to see if she was still interested in him, like she said last summer.His heart beat fast in anticipation.However, he was left disappointed when Dawn did not even look their way. Cierra had to tug his hand so they could keep moving. His gaze was on Dawn but the latter was looking at Keenan with an amused expression. Dawn didn’t look starstruck with Keenan. In fact, she behaved confidently and could even carry a banter with him.This made Cierra be surprised at Keenan’s change in b
Dawn didn’t know how to react at this moment. She was getting comfortable having Keenan as her friend. She had plenty of friends who are girls but since her rebirth, he was the only boy she considered as the first friend she made on her own.There was no memory of the previous Dawn having any sort of interaction with Keenan other than when she confessed through a letter and he didn’t respond.“Ahemm.. What’s this? Didn’t I confess to you back then and even left you a letter in your bag? Now you’re saying you like me that way..” She shook her head at Keenan. She wanted to make sure.“You did? Ah.. perhaps. But I have never read it, nor any letter from other girls. I prefer to get to know the person first myself.” He said.
Susana was getting frustrated trying to convince the female students in her team to represent.However, it was quite difficult as they wouldn’t budge. They didn’t want to go up against the representatives of the other teams.They were convinced that they would only humiliate themselves in front of the whole High School Department.“We need a representative. If you’re worried about makeup and attire, I’m sure we could come up with a solution.” She said to them.“That’s not the problem, ma’am. The other representatives are just very capable. Just talking about myself here, I wouldn’t stand out at all.” One of the students said.
They made a list of songs that they know and checked which ones that all of them know.Dawn looked it over. “Janus, come here for a moment..Hugo, you too..”Hugo perked up. He never thought that Dawn would include him.“Yes, tita?” Janus asked her.“Play the percussion..”“Percussion?” Janus had no idea what she was talking about.Dawn thought about it and took an empty bottle and poured some tiny rocks. She then closed the lid and tested it out.“This sound.”
The campus of Trinity Institution was now busy with the High School students making their way to the gymnasium. They joined their team on their assigned spot on the bleachers. Everyone decorated their spots with banners, and flags. They also prepared the table and decorated it using their team colors.Meanwhile, Ian, Apollo and Estelle were also having their awarding and celebration for the Elementary department in the smaller gymnasium.Their games were not as hard as the High School department’s but their team had the most wins compared to the other two teams in the Elementary department.At this moment, Dawn went to the right side of the gymnasium, closer to the stage where Aria and the others were at.&ldq
After their performance, Dawn and the others quickly got off the stage while the members of the student body cleared the stage.Stephan called on a group of Junior students who were mostly from the other class. They would perform a dance number.As for Dawn, she quickly went back to the bleachers and went with Susana to get ready for the contest.Hugo was also with them since he would be the contestant for the Prince Charming. He brought with him his change of clothes as well.The contestants from the other teams have long gotten themselves ready.This time, the Legends team sent Dona and Immanuel as their representatives. For the Dominators, they have Jaso
