It was around 7:30 in the morning. On a Saturday. Shelby's first day off from a full week of teaching. Who didn't love the weekends? Shelby had gotten up, showered and dressed herself in a tank top, yellow shorts and Nikes. Right now she was headed toward the Sports Center on the school grounds. Definitely her favorite place now. She loved to play basketball always had. In fact she like to play any sport that she could learn easily. When it came to sports she was a jack of all trades, master of none.
Shelby ran a hand through her short hair. It fell just a half inch past her ears. Most of the time it had this crimped style to it. It was normally always down. But there were occasions when she put it up in a small pony tail. She walked the last couple of steps on the concrete sidewalk before she reached the door. Hand reaching out it grasped the handle and pulled. The glass door opened and she entered the building. Right now it was pitch black. Shelby put her hand against the wall and followed it until she came to a group of light switches.
She flipped them all up and the lights buzzed to life. A smile appeared on her face when Shelby saw the wooden basketball court. She moved over to a closet and opened it. Inside were most of the gym equipment. She found a well blown up basketball from a rack and began dribbling it out onto the court.
Once Shelby's foot hit the sideline she sped forward to the goal farthest from her. When she reached it she pictured a kangaroo in her mind and then jumped. Her leg muscles coiled and then sprung apart as she jumped up and dunked the ball. The ball swished and she fell back to the ground landing on her feet. Shelby smirked at her success and started to dribble around the court. |
