Chapter 212: Basketball game
Penny’s defeat in that one scare fail didn’t discourage her. Instead, it gave her more motivation to the point all those who entered the horror booth left crying. On the third day of the foundation week, they closed their horror booth for the basketball game between the basketball team featuring Atlas and Max’s team.
This was the highlight of today’s foundation week.
Sitting down near Hugo’s team bench, Penny was in awe.
"This is the first time I’m watching a basketball game," she blurted out in awe, looking around the school gym and at how packed it was. "It’s even more crowded than my fan club assembly."
Well, mainly because almost all the students were there to watch the game.
This would be a moment of truth for the basketball team. This would prove if Max was truly that capable of defeating his own team, or if the team could stand on their own without him.
"Go, go, go Max! You can do it our Max!" some fans from Max’s fan club cheered. "Go, go, go, Max! You can do it, our Max!"
Looking at those cheering, Penny cringed a little. Those girls were even holding banners and pompoms as they chanted their fan chant. As her eyes veered down, she saw some star students seated near the bench. It was almost as though they were part of the team, since their seats were so close to the empty bench for Max and his team.
When Penny’s eyes landed on the weird guy beside Ray, her face turned sour. She looked away when the weird dude met her eyes, as if he could know she was looking.
’I don’t like him for a reason,’ she thought. ’Is he a part of the star section? But I don’t think I met him before in that class.’
