Diary-3 The Last 2 Minutes

That was the moment, I thought I will lose but I didn’t gave up……

Date: 2076/08/05 Day: Thursday

Today we got a basketball competition and I was at the school on 7. I practiced for the competition which was at 10:30. When I was practicing, a green house boy who was our tough competition throw a ball at me. I didn’t notice that the ball was coming so I got injured at the moment. He said sorry to me and I didn’t mind. I got injured on hand. I tried to revive from that but I can’t. I return to home and I didn’t tell my mom and dad that I was injured because if they know they wouldn’t let me play the game. So, I go home and rest for a while, then I go school it was too late. I apologies to my coach and house teacher. Then after sometimes the match was decided. At first, the green house will compete with yellow house and the second match was Red House VS Blue House. I was little bit worried that I didn’t have any good players. I’ve one short boy and a boy who didn’t know how to play and the 2 girls who were clever in studies but they were dumb in the game. The game was started and the game was between yellow and green. Green was in the form and they were scoring very fast as we didn’t hope like that. They were good at passing, co-operation, strategy, and scoring the ball. Then after about 30 minutes, the first match finished. The score was Yellow: 0, Green: 12.

Everyone was cheering for Green house. I was little bit worried about our team performance because I was the only senior and well playing player of the team. Then our match started we manage up sometime and after sometimes I started sweating and taking heavy breathes. However, I scored, everyone was cheering and I was encouraged by that. Then, I started scoring, scoring and scoring. I scored continuously and after 30 minutes, our score was Red House: 12, Blue house: 0. By that score we won.

So, there was no chance to play losing team against other losing team. So we were secured but Yellow and Blue House were out of the game. The Green House had advantage because we got tired from the blue house match. The match was going to begin, referee was telling us rules and some tips to win. He said to me that I don’t have proper players to play with me, “your team will make you get more troubles”. I feel sad to hear the truth which was more bitter than losing. The whistle buzz and the game starts, we were tired and exhausted by the previous match. They scored very fast. Everyone was shocked because only of the 40 seconds of the game start they scored. Our team started losing faith thinking they were better than us. Our opponent had scored thrice and in one half they scored 5 times. Then our friends and brothers support us. The coach was saying that “time still left don’t feel shamed”. Then suddenly the matched turned we’ve started scoring. Everyone was cheering and we were happy of that.

It was tough match because they too were sweating and tired but they were not tired as we were. We make the score draw, I was tired. The coach says “You’re too tired. Now just play for defense”. But I need another score to play in defend but we were in draw. So, if my defending goes wrong then our team might loose. After sometimes they started hitting foul and the referee was giving them warning as the 4 foul makes you out of the game. They foul thrice because their strategy was injuring a well playing player and after that new player will in the game and there was no proper player in the school who know the rules or playing better than me. They make me fall on the ground and make my small finger injured but I tried hard.

They again scored and That was the moment, I thought I will lose but I didn’t gave up…… I kept moving on. Again I scored. All school was shocked by our playing. Our coach was happy for our playing skill. Then the times up. The referee asked me who wins? But I didn’t answer he said both draw. So, there was additional 2 minutes and I was like what the heck? We are too tired and we’re not getting time. Our coach said, “no pain, no game”. The 2 minute starts and at the 53 seconds we scored, now they were losing from 2 points. They were angry and they were like wild animals trying to feast on our flesh. Then at the last 16 seconds, guess what happen? We scored another one. Now everyone was shared that we will win. The 2 minutes end and We win. Everyone was congratulating me, our house teacher was so much happy. When The V.P, M.D, Principal, Chairperson, CO, and coach started applausing my name, it was the proudest moment ever. Then after-a-while when coach shakes my hand I got little pain and my hand was shaking. He said what happen I was hot like the red charcoal after burning too much. I said my hands are paining he massage my hand and put some moov on my hand and call my parents. I went for checking they said it was little injury in the smallest and the index finger. And now I am writing all these into My Diary Chapter 3-The last 2 Minutes.
