Teammates

Eve

I turned my phone on as I stepped onto the bus. My emotions were a wreck, and I needed something to distract me from my thoughts.

It vibrated multiple times in my hand, signalling a flood of messages.

Captain, is there practice today?

Practice at 3?

Are we at the facility or the court?

Hello? Capt?

Eve, is there practice?

We should've known you'd flake.

Come on, E. The big game is tomorrow.

E?

I had 39 messages in total, all related to basketball except for one.

Come home.

I shut my phone off. I couldn't go home. I wasn't wanted there.
