"Hey calm down Win", Bright told his partner who was tapping his legs under the tap for the past 20 minutes.

"I'm trying. I house hope the juniors win today"

"They will. You did help them after all", Bright said holding Win's hand from under the table so that Tay won't catch them like he always does. Win started to calm down a bit as Bright held his hand. He kept looking at his watch at times. He knew the match would finish at 10:30am which was only 10 minutes away. The same time their chemistry class would end. He made his coach promise him that he would call if the juniors had won. He kept his phone in full volume so that he wouldn't miss the call, even when there was a risk of his phone going off in between class and getting it confiscated for the day.

It was his last year. He really needed to play one more time. Time seemed to be going slower now.

"Win are you listening?", Bright asked the other, bringing Win back to reality.

"What happened?"

"We have a group project coming up. What do you want to do it on?"

"Uh.. anything is fine"

"No you choose. Or you'll make me do everything again"

"No I won't, I promise"

"You say that every time", Bright said rolling his eyes and heading to the front of the class to give in their topic for the group project to Tay.

The bell went off and Win immediately pulled out his phone now. Waiting for that call.

"Dude I don't think coach will call you right away. What if they had extra time?", Off told Win who was freaking out right now. Bright walked back and waited with Win while the other students left the class to move to the cafeteria.

"He told he will call. I'll wait till I get that call"

"I'll wait in the cafeteria with Luke and Dew. You coming Bright?"

"No I'm staying with him", Bright said and waited patiently with Win.

5 minutes... 10 minutes... time just went by.

"Do you think they lost?", Win said, slowly losing hope. His face dropped and eyes were almost tearing up. Football meant the world to Win. Seeing Win in that state made Bright feel extremely hurt as well. He pulled Win in for a hug and tried to comfort him and kept telling him to be positive and not assume anything till it was actually confirmed by the coach.

Just then they heard a lot of cheers coming from downstairs. Bright let go of Win and went towards the window to look outside and see what the commotion was about. The sight he saw made him happier than ever.

"Win I think you'd want to see this", Bright said, turning back at Win.

"What is it?"

"Just come"

Win looked down from the window and then immediately darted off downstairs to the boys who were cheering downstairs.

"THERE YOU ARE! WE DID IT", Nanon screamed and ran to hug Win with the other players running behind him. They were all still in their jerseys and sweating but Win didn't mind. He was filled with joy and he was lowkey crying with happiness now.

"Why didn't you call me? You promised!", Win asked the coach.

"These boys took my phone away. They said they wanted to be the ones to tell you the big news and see your reaction"

"This was totally worth it", Chimon said with a bright smile. "We'll be waiting for that treat now"

"Of course"
