There was no other option at that time, you had to go to basketball, your parents didn't want you at home with the computer or the mobile phone. You were alone in the basketball classes where your classmates left you aside or made mocking comments about how lonely you were and that you didn't go out to party, besides, the teacher favoured his students who were good at playing, leaving aside the others who were few like you and two others

Yet you always noticed a lonely guy about 20 years old being two years older than you playing in the young adult category, his style was...curious, he was like a silent punk rebel

You never thought he would talk to you but...he did, one day when he saw you alone he offered you a milkshake and in the blink of an eye you became best friends, your chaotic style turned out to be a friend of your loneliness

You two went to the movies, ate hamburgers, ate at each other's houses, gossiped, and so much more

"We are the best duo!" He had said smiling a long time ago

You thought you had finally found someone who understood you, but... after two years Peter got tired, not of you, of your excuses

Every weekend you had to work on your father's business or you were just too tired from school, it didn't bother him until he thought you were doing it on purpose

One day you were so sick you couldn't leave the house, it was friend's day, you texted him that you couldn't go with him for the afternoon but the last text still broke your heart

"I feel dodged"

You tried to text him, but the messages didn't get through to Peter, it's as if... he's blocked you

A few days later when you went to basketball you went straight to Peter because he didn't even say hello, but you called him twice and he didn't even answer, he turned his back on you while he was getting ready to play basketball
