Bill had to leave a while later, as he had to attend a basketball club briefing.

He was admitted not long ago by scoring the best amongst the tryouts. Guess his height played a fair advantage.

He liked to play sport. It seemed fun to move around, while Mabel thought otherwise.

He recalled how at first, when he entered school, he was quite left out. But suddenly, when he entered the basketball club, things changed.

People like Bridgette started approaching him. He didn't understand why though.  

He still remembered how Mabel told him about the obnoxious people in school and apparently, Bridgette was one of them.

But no, she seemed quite nice, why does Mabel think otherwise?

He made a mental note to himself to ask her someday.

Arriving at the basketball court, he saw his group in a circle, with the coach.

"Hey Bill, c'm here!" He signalled.

Bill found a spot and nodded.

"Okay team, so today we are here so I can introduce y'all to the upcoming annual basketball championships. Y'all should know it, except Bill, but I'm sure you can catch up," he finished, smiling at Bill.

He proceeded to talk about general details. Bill had never heard of a competition before.

This sounds interesting.
