I Cant Miss !!!

After the game ended the crowd surrounded us trying to cheer us on. We had just won the prize and the trophy, I was finally able to fight everybody away but after doing that my hoodie had come down revealing my face as everybody there was shocked when they saw me.

"Isn't that Eazy the number one pick in the NBA draft this year"? A man in the crowd screamed out loud in shock.

Everybody shrieked and backed away, they couldn't believe they were in the presence of an NBA player.

All the players that had been eliminated in the tournament started complaining as they voiced out that it wasn't fair that I got to play and it was no wonder I was able to beat them so easily. 

We must redo the tournament! Everybody protested.

I quickly shook my head and said "first off I don't want the money I just want the trophy for my daughter, you can give the money to the second place person and second off I'm not in the NBA yet, I just went to the draft but I haven't signed any papers with the team so technically I'm not in the NBA (I lied) so for now I'm just a free agent". 

Everybody there couldn't believe my shamelessness but they had to agree that without proof they couldn't see much back. 

They weren't going to rob a little girl of her trophy because she too had worked hard for it and they noticed that she had gotten more points than I did.

After taking the trophy Isabella and I left as we left the money for the second place contenders which they happily celebrated and even came and shook our hands and got our autographs and took a few pictures before we left. Everybody else couldn't do that because they were too shy or too embarrassed but the second place contenders did.

We went around New York using this opportunity to tour around the place and grab something to eat. It was as busy as I remembered it but this time I had my daughter along with me as her eyes flashed seeing all the other things around New York. People walk around even getting to bump into people whether they smell good or they smell bad every little thing interests her.

"Daddy this place is the best, there's so many people here and the place is so crowded and exciting, it feels like there's a show at every corner and she made us stop to watch several performances which brought joy to both of our hearts. 

We watched a little boy drumming while the father did some breakdancing in order to entertain the crowd and get coins. I dropped a $100 bill in his collection, and the father noticed this and thanked us several times.

I still had my hoodie on so that I wouldn't be recognized by anybody around New York. We went to visit a famous jewelry store so I could check out wedding rings for Riri and Sandra. 

I nodded my head and said" yes once the NBA season starts I won't have much time to do anything". 

Isabella shook her head and said "you think this is the best time to get married, you will get married and leave them behind. I think you should wait for daddy and not rush things". 

I was surprised my five year old daughter was giving me relationship advice and I knew deep down that she was right. 

Have you been watching drama films with Aunty Opal again? 

She giggled and nodded her head.

Sorry daddy 

She was growing up too fast and I regret not being there for her. We left the place to grab a bite to eat as we discussed where to head to next. 

Isabella told me she wanted to go to a basketball camp that was being hosted by Kobe Bryant in LA in a few days and asked me if I wanted to join and that it was for all ages.

In my mind I disagreed because why would I go to a person I'm going to be competing against in the NBA's camp but for Isabella I had to agree.

I quickly agreed and said if I get to spend more time with you then I don't mind but deep down inside I wondered how Kobe would feel with me attending his training camp since I'll be competing against him in the winter time.

This would surely be a shock to him but I was going to sign up as I pulled out my phone and quickly registered us both. It's going to be held in 2 days so I booked a flight and went to hang out around La before the time approached.

I let everybody know at home that we were going to shock them as Rasta quickly told me that it was a bad idea to go to Kobe's training camp and not go. He warned me that if I went to Kobe's training camp then I would have to go to my team's training camp. 

"Fine I'll go to both", I told him I don't want to ruin my career by not attending the teams training camp and I heard that the coach was a rookie killer so it'd be best to not give him a reason to bench me all season in my rookie season.

I needed the hype to get more money to finish my projects. After flying to LA and paying for the camp which was quite expensive, $5000 for me and $3000 for Isabella. We got the building where it was being held. 

A Huge Nike sign on the building as it shined brightly, seeing it from a mile away as we pulled up. Kobe himself was there welcoming each person that was attending, surprising me. 

When Isabella and I got out of the vehicle Kobe immediately recognized me and was beyond shocked but then noticed my daughter in understanding.

But when he took a look at the list and noticed my name on there he lost all logic as he walked away cursing his luck.
