The entire venue lit up again. A flash of jealousy flickered in Bianca’s eyes. Ever since Elysia stepped onto the court, Bianca couldn’t take her eyes off Justin.

As she saw the smile grow on Justin’s face and the clear admiration in his eyes, Bianca’s jealousy bubbled up inside her.

She thought, ‘Why did Elysia have to come onto the court? Why does she have to shine so bright? I envy her–everything she does seems perfect! I hate the smile Justin gave her!‘

Bianca wasn’t alone in her feelings; Grace looked just as miserable. At that moment, she appeared as if she had bitten into something sour, her face clouded with disappointment.

She had prepared herself to see Elysia fail, but she was shocked by how well Elysia played basketball.

Hearing all the praise for Elysia made Grace feel uneasy. An almost perfect person like Elysia could easily spark jealousy.

Grace thought, ‘Life is really unfair; not only did Elysia get beauty and a privileged life, but she also excels at school and basketball–she doesn’t lose to anyone!

‘Meanwhile, those of us who are just ordinary may never achieve what she has. If only I had even one talent like hers, I would feel satisfied.‘

The whistle blew again, signaling the end of the second match. The score was tied at 1:1, so a third game was needed to decide the winner.

At that moment, Elysia came off the court, wiping the sweat from her forehead. She took a bottle of water from Ava, twisted off the cap, and took a refreshing sip.

“Elysia, you were amazing!” Sterling shouted, giving her a thumbs–up and showering her with praise.

“Isn’t that clear? Elysia is just incredible!” Ava said, her face beaming with joy like she had just won the lottery.

Sterling added, “Elysia, if you had played in the first game, Class would have lost without a chance for a third match!”

“Exactly!” Ava agreed.
