After lunch. In the Chemistry lesson.

Hebe: *Thinking* What's wrong with him? We were partners for three years and now he suddenly wants a change.

Arron: *Thinking* If she knows me well enough, she should get my intention.

Hebe: *Thinking* What a petty guy. Humph.

Arron: *Thinking* Winter was right, Edwin might not be innocent.

During the practical. Over at Hebe's and Edwin's side.

Edwin: Are you okay?

Hebe: I'm fine.

Edwin: You... look unhappy.

Hebe: It's nothing. *smile lightly*

Edwin looked down.

Hebe: *Thinking* He can't be the , he's polite, kind, shy and nice.

Edwin: Are you and Arron dating?

Hebe: Ha?

Edwin: I was just being curious as both of you are always together.

Hebe: He's just a friend.

Over at Arron's and Ella's table.

Ella: Hello? Shouldn't you be focusing and stop looking at Hebe?

Arron: Who should I look at if I don't look at her?

Ella: Look at me! If we fail this practical I will kill you!

Arron: Oh whatever.

At Xiaogui's and Guigui's table.

Guigui: Cool man, how did you do that?

Xiaogui: Stop calling me little ghost and I will teach you immediately.

Guigui: Okay! ...... Little ghost!

At Danson's and Prince's table.

Danson: I smell sour.

Prince: What? I didn't add sulfur.

Danson: I meant, now it is your turn to be jealous.

Prince: I am not interested in that ghost.

Danson: Really?

------------------------------

After class. Basketball court.

Jiro: Where's Selina?

Arron: Oh, I didn't notice her.

Guigui: Because you're only interested in Hebe.

Danson: I agreed. But I remembering seeing Selina... An hour ago.

Jiro: Where is she now?

Hebe: She's at the lockers' area.

Prince: Let's start first.

Jiro: Okay.

Chun is the referee for today.

Chun: Ready...*Threw the ball high*

Aoquan snatched it.

Aoquan dribbled it and passed it to Xiaojie.

Xiaojie scored a two pointer.

Aoquan: Captain, are you okay? Usually I would not be able to snatch the ball.

Calvin: Jiro, you want a break?

Jiro: It's okay. Continue!

Over at the rows of seats.

Guigui: Jiro is not in a good state today.

Arron: That's obvious. We can tell.

Hebe: He seemed fine to me.

Arron: Erm, let's continue watching.

Guigui: Wait, there's a three pointer from Xiaogui!

Arron: He got in.

Guigui: Cool man!

On the court.

Prince: *Thinking* What's so good about that?

Jiro: *Thinking* Why is that so? I cannot concentrate if Sel is not here. What's wrong with me? Why is she taking so long?

-----------------------------

Lockers' Area.

Selina: I'm late!

Garrick: *walk towards her* Selina.

Selina: You're... I know, you're from the basketball team, aren't you?

Garrick: I'm glad you noticed me.

Selina: But basketball practice should have started 15 minutes ago, why aren't you at the court?

Garrick: I was waiting for you.

Selina: Me?

Garrick: I... I like you! Can you be my girlfriend? *bows*

Selina: Ha? But I... I didn't know when I gave you the wrong impression, I am sorry.

Garrick: Selina, it is because I am not as good as Captain? I will change, I will try to change.

Selina: It's not your fault, it is just that, I will not like you. I'm sorry.

Selina wanted to walk away but Garrick pushed her against the wall.

Selina: What are you doing? *struggled* Let me go!

Garrick started to kiss Selina and all she can do was to cry.

Selina: *Thinking* Jiro... Jiro...

---------------------------------------

On the court.

Jiro: I cannot take this anymore!

Xiaojie: Captain, what's wrong?

Jiro: Why is she taking such a long time?! *ran off*

Willian: Hey, what's wrong with Captain?

Ahwei: He must have gone crazy.

Prince: You looked more like the crazy one.

Xiaoyu: I agreed.

Aoquan: So do we still continue playing?

----------------------------

Lockers area.

Jiro ran there and saw what they were doing.

He pulled Garrick away and punched him to the floor.

Jiro: Did he do anything to you?

Selina: *Crying* Jiro...

Garrick: Captain... I... I wasn't thinking properly. I am sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you, Selina.

Jiro: You're late for practice. Quick hurry to the court.

Garrick: Thanks Captain! I promise I will never do such things again. *ran off*

Jiro hugged Selina.

Jiro: I'm sorry. I should have come earlier.

Selina: It's okay... Thank you.

Selina: *Thinking* This is the second time he hugged me...

Jiro: *Thinking* What are I doing? Since when did Sel has such big influence on me?

Arron was watching from the back.

Arron: *Thinking* If Jiro likes Selina, what will happen to Genie?
