[The next section, and the next day in school. "Rigby High School"]
[The school bell ringing for closing time]
Lefah and Garriso were about to leave their classroom to get back home after school, but they wanted to visit Mrs. Madison, the high school principal in her office, before they run back home. So, Lefah called Garriso when he was arranging his books back in his bag and said, "Hey bro, why don't we go and greet Mrs. Madison in her office before we leave home..."
"Oh, I see, but I thought you never liked the principal. Or?" [Garriso snickers]
"Not that, Garriso. Yeah, I never liked her, but that was the first time in her office, bro. Like she was rude and bad looking then, bro...."
"Yeah, bro. You are right. So, do you like her now?"
"Maybe. Hey, let's pass by her office just to say thank you for helping us talk to Miss Anna. That's all. And nothing like I want us to go to her office to visit her as our friend or something, bro."
"Okay, Lefah. And I think you have a point, my man..."
"Sure. So, let's go...."
"So, what are we waiting for, bro. Let's start going now..."
"Yes, let's run fast to her office now, master planner...."
Lefah and Garriso wanted to see Mrs. Madison in her office and say another thank you for her supporting and also talking to Miss Anna about them playing football and also supporting their dream of playing. Immediately, they opens their classroom door, they saw Henry, the team captain. Levi, the assistant team captain and some other boys who are also part of the high school's football team coming to their way but not their class, just passing by. So, immediately Lefah and Garriso saw them coming, Garriso smiles and said, "Hey bro. Your friend is coming. Just turn your back slowly and look at him. Talking to the other girls over there..."
"Like damn! Who's that my friend? It's Henry? No Garriso. That fool can never be my friend..."
"Hey but I think Coach Wilson, talked to us respectfully yesterday at the training ground that we should love and care for each other just like family...."
"Yeah, and do you think that boy has changed?"
"Hey, I don't trust Henry, but let's forget about yesterday and focus on tomorrow, bro."
"Yo, G, I don't even have time for Henry's dream, bro. Let's pass the other door to Mrs. Madison's office or let's get back to class before they see us, bro."
"No bro. Hey, that's fine if you don't trust, Henry. But let's go our way to the head office and pretend we didn't see them because their backs are facing us. And they are even busy talking to the other girls...."
"Hey, what if they see us? That's my problem...."
"Oh, whatever, Lefah. And what if we run, and they see us? Don't you think Henry and his boys will think we are afraid of them? That's why I don't want us to keep hiding or running away. And for how long we will keep running away from someone who is our team captain? And, besides, we are also attending the same school. Hey, this whole thing is bullshit, my man. Let's roll to our way, my man..."
"Hmm, ---okay. I understand, bro. But just hoping Henry won't try anything stupid...."
"And what will make you think Henry won't? We knew Henry before joining the high school's football team. How Henry is annoyed and his misbehaving attitude towards students. Henry never looks like a leader, but he knows how to play football in this school, which makes him the team captain. Why don't we ignore his dream, and I think that'll help, bro."
"Okay if you say so, bro. Let's start going our way now. It's late already."
"Yeah, my man...."
[Classroom door opens and closes]
Lefah and Garriso get out from the classroom and start walking towards Henry, Levi and the other players. Henry and his boys were busy talking to the girls. But one player among them alerts Henry that Lefah and Garriso are coming, so, Henry should turn his back to look at them. Immediately, Henry saw Lefah and Garriso coming towards them. Henry smiles and started walking to Lefah and his best friend, Garriso. Henry stopped them immediately he reached them with his boys. Henry laughes and started making fun of Lefah and Garriso and calling them some names.
"Hey, that's my two Muffins. What's up dudes? How was your training yesterday? Hey, my two pumpkins, hope you guys really enjoyed training yesterday, right?"
[Garriso snickers and responds immediately to Henry] "Yeah. You know. That was really crazy amazing. You can even ask my brother...."
Henry turned to Lefah and said, "Hey, Lefah. Is Garriso right? Or you didn't enjoy it? Just feel free and talk to me, my candy boy..."
Lefah smiles at Henry and said, "Yeah captain. Yesterday's training was seriously amazing moment ever in my life. Like I can't even imagine how I enjoyed my first time at training..."
[Lefah was smiling at Henry, but only Garriso knew what was going on in Lefah's head at the moment. Yeah, Garriso knew Lefah was just pretending to make Henry's chats look like more interesting story to tell after school.]
Garriso snickers immediately. Lefah responded back to Henry and said, "Hey, hope you heard my brother, right? Unlike I told you already. We really enjoyed training yesterday..."
[Henry wasn't smart enough to know Lefah and Garriso were just pretending to have his chat, but Henry took them seriously. Henry smiles again, and surprise looks on his face] "Oh, really? Like I thought you guys would be worried about how I treated you guys yesterday at training. But I can see you're not, right?"
Lefah smiles and said, "Oh, no captions. We got this shit. So, don't worry about us...."
"Yes, my bro, is right. We are cool, so there's nothing to worry about, captain." [Garriso smiles]
Levi smiles at Lefah and Garriso and said, "Wow, that's great, and we shouldn't be fighting with each other because we team now. And if we are a team, it means we are also family, just like Coach Wilson told us yesterday at the training ground. So, we should keep Coach Wilson's words in our minds and play just like family in this coming season's league."
