..."Usually the arrogant at the beginning will lose at the end"...

.......
It didn't feel like the match that day was a semi-final. And today is the final, both for Radit et al and Dea et al. Both won in the semi-finals yesterday.
Syasya looked wryly looking at the audience. Though the match was about to start, but until now the people he was waiting for had not come.
He is currently awaiting the arrival of his family. Abi, umi, Dito, Nisa, also Ridwan his sister-in-law. They promised they would come to watch, but until the game was about to start they were all nowhere to be seen.
"Huh.. Maybe they can't come." lamented Syasya smiled bitterly.
His gaze caught the highest figure on the spectator bench. He is none other than Nando. Nando seemed to show his fist from there. She smiled and did the same.
The fist thrust though stretched the distance between the two. Not to forget, Nando also gave encouragement to Syasya.
"Fighting!!"
That's what Syasya defines from the motion of Nando's lips. A thin smile was again etched on Syasya's face. He returned to encourage himself. Although his family is not there, he should not be discouraged, right?
Priitt
The ball was thrown up. After the ball reached its highest point, Lita and her opponent named Adel were fighting each other to win the jump ball.
Jump ball won by Adel. A cynical smile was immediately painted on the faces of Sinta and her friends.
"Sorry guys" said Lita.
"No papa, just take it easy." Syasya reply remained calm.
At first glance Syasya stared at the opposing team's power forward who continued to look at him cynically. He certainly knew her. Sinta. He is a friend of Syasya Junior High, as well as his basketball partner. He also returned Sinta's gaze no less cynical.
They were both good friends. But because Sinta is superior in basketball, making him arrogant and selfish. That is what causes the relationship between Syasya and Sinta to become tenuous.
The ball starts to be dribbled by the opposing team. Without further ado they directly attacked the defense of Dea and his team.
The ball was passed to Sinta. But soon Syasya confronted him. They used to fight together, but now they have to compete for victory.
"When not seen, how are you?" ask Sinta for pleasantries while dribbling the ball.
"Yes the one you saw. Your eyes can still see my situation now, right?" balas Syasya stay focused.
Sinta smiled cynically. "Yes can. You were the same before. Even your height has not changed," ledek Sinta mocked.
Syasya remained calm. Even now he smiled no less cynical than Sinta.
"Lo is the same. Your pride was not lost. Not that it's going down even more up. Maybe if you have bentok the sky, then your arrogance will disappear. Didn't you??" Syasya replied to mock Sinta while raising her eyebrows.
Sinta biting her lower lip held back the emotion. He's accelerating his dribble. He easily escaped from Syasya's guard.
Plunged
In an instant Sinta was able to score points. "Lo everyone, will lose!!" resolutely Sinta with his arrogance.
This of course triggers anger in Dea and others. Moreover, Santi, as a power forward in his team, he felt underestimated.
Because of her anger, Santi immediately attacked back alone. After successfully passing through the opponents who confronted him, he immediately shot the ball into the ring.
Plunged
The counter-attack from Santi managed to balance the score of both teams. Santi immediately looked at Sinta cynically.
"Not to be arrogant. Because usually the arrogant at the beginning will lose at the end." said Santi passed.
Sinta looked smiling. I don't know what that smile means. Syasya who already knew him did not even know the meaning of the smile earlier.
"Nice. But then don't play by yourself anymore. If you play by yourself, what's the point of us?" praise Syasya and remind Santi.
"Ck! Yes." reply Santi rolled a lazy eye.
The match continues. The second quarter is over. Current position is 28:39, or superior to the Sinta team.
Seeing the team that reached eleven points, Vivi also planned to reset their strategy. For a long time he and his team were negotiating, but still did not produce a surefire strategy.
Sontak Vivi and the others immediately looked at Syasya.
"Where??" say everything compact.
"If we do not want the grass does not grow back, we must pull it up to the roots" Syasya proposed.
Hopefully his colleagues will understand, but it turns out they do not understand at all with Syasya's words.
Syasya snorted in annoyance. "Huh..! Eighty percent of the points earned by the opponent, it was Santi who scored"
"Kok being me anyway, Sya? Sane little napa?!" sad Santi because his name was brought by Syasya.
"Eh, sorry sorry..! Sinta I mean. Both of you're names are similar! Like twins, hehe." said Syasya with a joke.
"Gue's? Twins with her?! Amit-amit!! How come I have a twin who is arrogant until asked to be pummeled!!" sangkul Santi disgusted.
They all immediately chuckled at Syasya's joke and also Santi's face that looked sulky.
"Yes.. Sorry yes.." Syasya persuades Santi not to sulk.
"Okay, back to our plan. So who scored the majority of Sinta points, well mending we make that Sinta can no longer score points." Syasya proposed.
Vivi and the others immediately frowned incomprehensibly. "You mean??" askthem.
"We broke his arm with his leg??" tanya Santi proposes.
"That's.. Gile lo ya, San?! Psyco is lo, njir!" timpal Cika did not believe Santi's proposal.
The others immediately shook their heads. They also looked back at Syasya who seemed to pat her head.
"No, I mean Santi, too.. Gini yes, I know Sinta. If we want to lose him, we just pour oil for a little bit. Let... BOOM!!!"
"Allahu akbar!" lita was surprised.
Even others were no less surprised because of Syasya's sudden speech like an atomic bomb that exploded.
"Anjirr!! Ngagetin lo, yes!!" sulcan Cika's.
Syasya immediately chuckled. He felt that he managed to make his colleagues forget their concerns about the hefty points difference.
"Ops, sorry release.. I am so excited, hehe.. Back to plan. So Sinta is the emotion. And if he is emotional, usually he becomes difficult to pass, or score points. Well, my plan-"
"We are hot-hot Sinta until she is emotional, continue to not be able to score points. Is that??" cut Santi guessing Syasya's plan.
Syasya immediately flicked her finger and held out two thumbs for Santi.
"It's such a kayak problem, I'm backing away ah! I can't be a stove, I'm a good kid." Dea gave up.
"Gue too.." added Lita.
"Gue-"
"What?! Don't you want to follow me too?!" Santi cut off Cika's speech.
"eehh.. Tau aja lo. But sans, I'm still participating. So my advice, mending lo the same Syasya stove, well it's me who snatch a sure ball.. How's it? Kidney, right??" cika is proud.
"Battle.. Agreeing me. By mouth you two will be very spicy like sambel samyang, wkwk!!" teasek Vivi on Syasya and Santi.
"It's all a deal, right??" dea made sure.
"Win?"
"Win!!"
Their cheers echoed in the field.
