Now, I've arrived at the venue for the game, Evergreen Valley College.
It wasn't far from the apartment, but I opted to take a bus. As I step off and join the throng of students gathering for work, I can't help but marvel at the size of the venue. The atmosphere is buzzing with excitement, and I look around eagerly, taking in the scope of what lies ahead.
"Zane's team is playing today! He's going to look so hot, all sweaty and everything!"
"I'm on Central Valley's team, but I wouldn't mind if St. Aldrich wins, especially if Zane hits on me."
"Girl, that's gross."
Their casual chatter hit me like a jolt. It was clear they were talking about Zane from St. Aldrich. The Zane I knew.
Ignoring the chatter about Zane, I focused on reaching the designated meeting spot where the supervisor was already gathering everyone's attention.
