Married at 19

Chapter 42

I was waiting for Bella at the court after my class for today ended. Well.....I promised to take her for

a dinner tonight as our first date together. But I still don't really know yet where should I take her. I

never have a girlfriend before, so I'm really bad at this thing.

And about the basketball thing, I need to practice more because my team has a tournament with

against a team which is from our university too. I'm not sure who are they yet, but I bet they are not too

good either because if they were, Mr Goodman maybe has already selected them into our team.

I shoot the ball into the hoop from the three pointers range for several times since it is my

specialty.

"Good job," I heard an angelic voice coming from my right side. She is none other than, my

gorgeous wife, Isabella Dawson.

I don't know why, but I'm so excited when I saw her. Maybe her look more beautiful today with the

denim shirt and dark-blue jeans. Her hair was tied into a ponytail, oh god.... I don't know how to

describe her anymore, but I'm totally into her.

I swiftly run towards her and hug her tightly.

"Hey.... you're smelly, you know." She giggled a bit as I planted a kiss on her cheek.

"I'm sorry, I just can't resist with your beauty." I rest my forehead against her, her pale grey eyes

were on mine.

She giggled. "Very funny, Nathan." She puts her index finger on my lips to stop me from kiss her

lips.

"Seriously, I spoke the truth. I never lie to you, believe it." I'm sure I am behaving like a kid right

now, because she just knits her eyebrow to me.

"Okay.... okay...... I trust you." She then gave me a quick peck. "So, please take a shower.....'cause

I'm starving now."

I saluted her. "Yes, ma'am."

"Attaboy," I winced a bit as she pinched my nose.

The next day......

"Hey dope, shoot now!!!" Seth shouted for me so he could pass me the ball.

I caught the ball that he threw it and shoot it into the hoop, gaining three points for our team.

I really didn't expect that the opposing team is Taylor's. Why is he always trying to mess up my life.

I really don't understand him at all.

God, damn it!!!

He is really a jerk!

The referee blew his whistle as it's for the half time now. We went to the side of the court to grab

our drinks.

"Hey dude!!!" Henry patted my shoulder. "Good job, Nathan."

"Hey.... you too, Henry." I replied.

"Where are the girls, by the way?" Sam looked at me then to Seth.

I shrugged. "I'm not sure, though. But Bella said that they have a test this morning."

"Oh, right, Cecilia already told me yesterday." Sam seems a bit disappointed when his girlfriend

didn't come to watch the match.

So do I....

I miss her so damn much.

The match starts again as the referee blows his whistle again. This time the opponent team plays

aggressively, that force us to be more cautions when passing the ball. Especially, Taylor who keeps

blocking my way now.

"Hey dude!!!" I shouted at him. "What is your problem?"

He only gave me a smirked.

Seth passed me the ball, but as I jump to shoot it into the hoop, I feel someone was pushing me

hard that cause me fall on the floor. I don't know who, my foot, which is already injured long time ago

was really painful. Someone was just stepped on it in a very hard way that made me can't move my

feet now.

Oh god....it's really hurts!!!

The referee stopped the game in an instant and call the medic team to help me.

"Hey dude!!!" I heard Seth was scolding someone. "I know what you did to him. You asked your

teammate to push him so you could injure him, right?! You're really a bastard, Taylor!"

"I'm not!!!" Taylor protested. "I'm just trying to get the ball and accidentally tripped his leg."

"Liar!!!" Henry was fuming.

"Don't call me that, weirdo!!!" Taylor replied.

"Hey Nathan, your foot is looking so bad. I think we need to go to the hospital now." Sam

suggested as he examined my feet.

Oh god... I think my foot is broken now.

At the hospital.....

I woke up in the hospital bed with my right foot was fully bandage. The pain already decreased as

the doctor asked me to take a painkiller awhile ago.

According to the doctor, the bone of my right foot is now cracked and it takes time for it to heal,

maybe a little longer than usual. He even advised me that I can't play the basketball anymore, if I

injured my foot once again, or even worse, I might become a cripple.

That jerk, Taylor!

How did he know that my right foot already in bad shape?

It was all his faults.

I look around the room and saw my friends were in the room, waiting for me to regain conscious

again.

But I didn't see the girls, especially Bella, my wife. To be more precise, I didn't see her since this

morning, that's worried me so much.

Didn't my friends inform her that I was in the hospital now?

"Hey... you're awake now," Henry greeted me and his face is too close for me.

"Ugh....come on, Henry." I groaned. "You're too close..."

He grinned. "Sorry, Nathan."

"Whatever, dude." I rolled my eyes.

"Hey dope!!!" It's Seth's turn to greet me. "How's your foot?"

I shrugged. "I feel no pain now. Maybe it's getting better."

He sighed while closing his eyes.

"What is it, man?" I look at him with curiosity.

"Taylor managed to trick the referee, so he didn't receive any consequences about injured you."

Seth seems a bit tense.

Damn it!!!

He's so clever when comes about this.

"No worries, Hedgehog." I replied with a heavily sighed. "I'll watch out more when he's around.

Thanks for helping me."

"We are sorry, Nathan." Henry added.

"Nah...I'll be alright, guys." I faked a smile to them. "By the way, where are the girls actually? I

didn't see them yet, especially Bella."

"We are here!!!" The door to my room was opened, revealing Sasha, Cecilia and my wife, Bella.

"Sorry for being late."

They put down the food that they bought on the table at the corner of the room.

"You didn't know how long the line that we have to queue up to buy this. Argh.... and also there are Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

many guys were trying to flirt with us, especially Bella." Sasha was gibbering to those guys.

What?

They are trying to flirt with my wife?

How dare they!!

I move a bit so I could sit on the bed. "Where...? Let me see them!"

Cecilia sighed. "Oh please, dork. You can't even move your foot, but still want to pick a fight with

them. Stop daydreaming, will you?"

Ouch.... that harsh!

I saw Bella giggled a bit, while the others burst into laughing.

"Fine....just laugh....laugh until you're satisfied." I pouted my lips with my arms crossed.
