Sophia received a call from Amy to come after she finished her job because Henry has some news for her.

Sophia felt nervous because she was pressured with all what happened during this week.

Sophia finished her work around 7 PM then she went to Amy's house.

At Amy's house...

In the living room, there is Sophia Amy, and her husband Henry.

"Amy, What's the news you have," said Sophia

"there are some good news and bad news which one you want to hear first," said Amy

"tell me the bad news first," Sophia said, and anxiousness starts to creep into her face.

"The bad news is that coach P is behind all the rejection from those schools because after you went out they called the coach to ask about Walker injury and Coach P start to exaggerate how difficult the injury and how walker work ethics is bad," said Henry

"Are they stupid to believe what he is his former coach says, and as for his injury I present all the paperwork about his injury," Sophia said

"I know don't get angry, they are not that stupid because that a hidden message to the other coaches to not offend him and since most of them are just new coaches you won't offend a veteran coach over a player who was injured before," said Henry

"The good news is there is a high school team, that willing to accept him," said Henry

"From those high schools that I talk too before," said Sophia

"No, it's a veteran coach for Spring Hill High school, the problem is that he may not get enough playing time," said Henry

"Sophia you should talk about this with Walker because this is his future if he wants to pursue basketball as a career," said Amy

"If he didn't want to join Spring Hill then he could join our high school even though the basketball was disbanded for a long time, I was thinking of bringing it back so, he is welcomed in there any time," Amy added.

"Thank you, without your help I don't know, how would I solve this problem," said Sophia

"It's okay we are friends don't thank us we are a family and whatever walker decided we are here for him," said Amy

Sophia felt the warmth from her friends since, the death of her husband they were always beside her support her and Walker.

So Sophia decided to Tell Walker about what happened then decided what he will choose regarding this matter.

Back to the present...

Walker part away with Zahir then headed towards home if he is late his mother will panic.

Walker entered the house and found Sophia sitting on the dining table.

"I was playing in the outdoors, I forget about time sorry I'm not going to redo it again," said Walker

He was expecting his mother to respond because he knows it will take some time before she will get over the shock he gave her.

"go shower first, then come back I need to talk with you," said Sophia

Walker who was going to shower he almost trip and looked back.

"Mom did you talk to me just now," said Walker with a smile fused with disbelief in his eyes

"Yes, go shower first, there is something I need to discuss with you," said Sophia

"Okay I will be fast," said walker while he hurried to the shower.

Sophia saw how her child was happy when she talks to him she felt like she was childish to use the silent treatment against him.

Sophia stands up and continues preparing dinner.

After A while Walker walks out of his room all refreshed a delightful smile in his face since his mother ended the awkward silence between them it was a happy ending to his day.

"Mom, what that you want to talk about," said Walker with a smile

"it's about your high school," said Sophia.

Walker frowns his eyebrow because he most likely guessed what his mother wants to talk about.

"did they withdraw my scholars.h.i.+p?" said Walker

Sophia was stunned for a moment.

"how did you know about it," said Sophia

"they already withdraw the scholars.h.i.+p of the team that reached the state finals, and I was wondering when they are going to withdraw mine, but they waited until I recovered, "said Walker with a poker face

Sophia didn't know what the son of hers is thinking, and her eyes became watery.

"Sorry, darling your mom was useless," said Sophia trying her best to hold her cry because of all the stress that she faced in the past week was quite the burden.

Walker saw his mother start to cry, he didn't know what happen to her in the past week, but from the look of it, it was difficult for his mom.

"Mom, please don't cry you also was expecting this, is there is something happened," said Walker

"Nothing happened it just the stress from work," said Sophia

"Do you not trust me why don't you tell me the truth," Walker said

"No, it's really nothing, "said Sophia

"You just lied, mom, you are not a good liar, why don't tell me the truth," said Walker and his eyes start to redden

when Sophia saw the look on his face remembered her husband in a similar situation.

Sophia sighed, she knows that her son already grow-up to be a support for her so, she told Walker what happened.

"it serves him right, if I was there it may not be just a mere slap," said Walker

Sophia was surprised at first with he responded at first, but after a moment she starts laughing.

Walker was confused about why his mother was laughing all of a sudden.

"Like Father, like son, your father would have said the same," said Sophia with a sweet smile.

"Now what did you decide will you go to Spring Hill high school or will you join Mapel Ridge High school," said Sophia

"It's going to be a waste of my time if I go to Spring Hill they already have a solid squad, and I will be on the bench all time, so it's better to join Mapel High school since aunt Amy said that she will bring the basketball team back," said Walker with a confidence.

"Okay I will talk to Amy about, now go to sleep and have a good night," said Sophia

"good night," said Walker.

Walker went to his room ready to sleep, but he was really excited about the 3V3 tournament suddenly he heard the sound of the system.

[Side Quest: Win the 3 Vs 3 tournament]

When Walker saw the side quest his fighting spirit ignited, and he was set on winning the tournament.
