We spent the night in the station, I have a broken nose for that punch and as well a bruised head for the fight that we picked when I lost control. It was well worth it anyways, Davis deserves the beating I gave him, as well as the injuries that came with it, he messed up, he fucking messed up.
I know that he wasn't himself, he was pissed and angry at everyone for his failure. Who knows that his character was going to foul him in this trials, for all we know, he did his best in the pitch, but his behavior came back to sting him in the ass, I did try to correct him, the Man who turns out to be the head of the officials as well tried to talk to him about his behavior, none of us knew that he was the one in charge of the trials, until we were already in the middle of the event, since then, I have as well being watching out not to fall in his bad side, but unlike Davis, he thought that it was going to be an easy pass for him after seeing the performance he has been giving out in the event.
Karma is a bitch, we all knows that, and with no improvement from his character, it came back to strike him. He was a leader in the pitch, but the fact that he can't be taught, unable to listen to instructions, the coach omitted him from the list of those who should've passed the trials, his behavior the reason for his failure.
One of the things that surprised me about this is the fact that he blamed me for his misfortune, stating that I have a hand in his failure, that I had executed a plan behind his back because I was jealous of how he was prospering in the trials, he spoke about how he had took the trials by storm beyond my expectations, and instead of supporting his progress as a friend, I went behind his back to pay the coach off with money so that his name would be withdrawn from the list, who the fuck told him that?, He fucking messed with his brain, looking for a stepping stone for his failure, someone to point fingers on for his failure.
The matter has been officially asked to be taken to the court for proper judgement, what evidence does he have about me on that?, He's just making things up to make himself better, and on the other hand trying to tear down another person, his friend, fuck him.
He wasn't the one who got himself into this trials, I used the influence of my brother to get him in even when he never officially applied, he never even know in the first place, was the one who brought him back with the information that we're to be going on a tryout on a so set date, now he's turning against me because he made wrong moves that has ended up costing him.
“ Mr Jerome, you're free to go.....”
Standing up from my position, I turned around towards Davis area, he wasn't even looking at me, just looking down like he was still angry and in pain, even though it's already the next day. I really want to go speak with him, but it doesn't look like a wise choice, looking from his mood right now, best I remain on my own lane and avoid anything that might stir up trouble.
The court case which have been charged wasn't really about me, rather the club has charged Davis for hitting the man in charge of the trial which was carried out, they wanted this to bite back at him for his reckless action towards the club official.
In this case, I don't actually know how to have his back, he got himself into this mess, guess he as well have to carry the burden that comes with it.
Stepping outside, it's exactly the person I expected to see because he was the one they were definitely going to call, he's the one they know. Hope he wouldn't be getting under my skin this time, because I am not ready for such drama between us.
“ They told me what happened, you were trying to have the coach's back after Davis had attacked him, that's so brave of you, especially for the fact he's your best friend....”
His hands were inside his pants pocket as he speaks, standing tall and confident. I don't really want to talk about this right now, my friend is still locked up and I have to find a way to get him out, overlooking whatever it is he has done. “ The trial was a success, I passed....” I informed him, trying to change the topic, he might've understood what I was trying to do because he complied.
“ They told me, said you were a generational talent, someone they really need in this hard time to get their team to the next level....”
Wow.... Did they say that?, If they really did, then this information has successfully gotten a smile on my face after all that have happened. It's a news that calls for a celebration, but not at this moment when things have turned south. “ Please can I ask for a favor?....” I requested from Jeffery.
Looking from his reaction, my question just got him in a stuck position, but without keeping the silence longer, he asked what I wanted. I really didn't know how to ask such a favor from him, but at any cost, it's not a favor that can wait, really have to speak exactly what's on my mind right now before it's too late.
“ Are you going to leave Davis behind?, He's my friend, even though he messed up, but can you get him out?.... Please!....”
“ Sorry buddy, I did requested to, but no, there's no chance, they're taking him to the court tomorrow for charges against him, so bad he's on his own this time.....”
