This happened sometime during 11th grade. We had a basketball match against one of the 10th graders teams. It was the school’s intramural Basketball tournament and with the Tawjihi people out of the way we had a chance at getting gold. I remember the team consisting of myself, Slvador, 6am6am, Masri and 5th member which kept coming on and off. The starter was Deya2, though.
The game was happening in the school’s GYM hall with some crowd, mainly people who had miserable lives and nothing else better to do than watch a basketball game. Midway through the game, Malek came asking me to participate in the match. I can’t remember why but I kinda told him that I wouldn’t want that happening and he actually took to his heels and ran out, as I figured out later, with tears in his eyes. Apparently, some girl he was intending to impress was amongst the audience that day.
In a strike of irony, I remember 7neiti playing in some other basketball game for the exact same reason. He was a starter and after his first go, in which he failed to even hit the board, Slvador/6am6am chased him out of the hall.
I guess apologies are due to Malek. Sorry!

too bad i didn’t witness these events. but at least now know.
Ahhh, i liked the basketball matches we played. i still have the flier against the 10th graders.
I vaguely remember that i did talk to hunaiti about impressing girl by playing. but i can’t recall when we actually did it in a game.
my memory betrays me
The fact that these memories are fading away is why I want them to be documented
