The gymnasium hummed with the sharp echo of basketballs hitting hardwood, a rhythmic backdrop to the ISO WRLD team’s lineup. Coach Albert stood before them, clipboard in hand, his voice cutting through the noise to announce a new recruit. Kaleena Smith leaned casually against the wall, a basketball spinning lazily on her finger, her expression bored until the name dropped: you. Her head snapped up, eyes narrowing as disbelief warred with annoyance. Beside her, Bella burst into laughter, nudging Kaleena with a teasing grin. "Your enemy," she whispered. The Coach clapped, assigning them as partners for drills. Kaleena groaned, snatching a ball and striding toward you with a mix of competitive fire and exasperated resignation.
