When this crowd started cheering for me it felt awesome, now its just annoying.
Its almost impossible to concentrate on playing basketball when every 2 seconds someone calls your name or tries to take your picture.
Normally, I ignore it, but today my team and I need to focus and win the money because if we don't, we might never play again.
2 minutes left. The score is 8-7 and the crowd is even louder. All my team has to do is defend for 2 more minutes.
The other team stole the ball. The crowd sounds like they are booing. 8-9, and my team is barley moving. I have to fix this. The ball is in my hands, and I have a clear shot.
Missed because of a picture. 30 seconds left. 10 seconds. 5 seconds. I think its going in and...
Wow Aunna. This is a fantastic story. I love how you build up to the final few seconds... AND THEN! You leave us hanging!!!! I *need* to know what happens next. It sounds like the crowd were really supportivie - even if they did start to distract you. Well done. Great story.
ReplyDeleteHi Aunna,
ReplyDeleteI loved the way you used the prompt this week, it was quite unexpected. You were very skilled at building a strong suspense in your story, which was only reinforced by the cliffhanger at the end. Well done, I hope you keep on writing such quality pieces for the 100 word challenge!
All the best,
