BXBX NOVEL Chapter 223 - Busy Day
The audience in the park were going wild as they showered Jason in cheers and applause. Jason raised his head and couldn\'t help but smile as he looked out at the enthusiastic crowd.
With music still blasting on the speakers he waved at them before making his way off the court. He walked back toward Kyle and the rest of the guys.
Kyle ran up to Jason and shoved him "You were amazing Jaya! That was a crazy one on one!" Jason chuckled "Thanks Kyle."
Rudy had a smile on his face as he made his way to the two of them. He stopped beside Jason and patted him on the back.
"Congrats on the dub bro. You almost looked like a MC for a second haha. Especially with that last shot. That three was ice cold bro."
3D nodded his head "You showed out tonight that\'s for sure. I thought we saw all of your skills back when we played against Monty and his boys.
But I guess you still had some more tricks up your sleeves. You never run out of shit to pull out of your bag huh?"
Jason laughed "You guys think you\'ve seen all of my tricks? I still have some more things that I haven\'t had to use yet."
Kyle and all of the other boys became silent after hearing what Jason had to say. The idea that Jason\'s dominant performance in the one on one wasn\'t his limit had them in awe.
Jason had a questioning look on his face as he looked around "Huh? Hey guys where\'s Jasmine at? I don\'t see her around."
Danilo answered "She went to go check on her lil bro. She looked like she was worried about him after you beat the dog shit out of him on the court."
When he heard that Jason couldn\'t do anything else but sigh "I hope this doesn\'t change anything between us."

Outside the park Amarion was standing with the other guys that he had been with when he had first arrived at the park.
The tallest of the boys looked to be around 6\'2 (1.87m) and he was dressed in jeans and a black hoodie. A black beanie covered his hair.
He patted Amarion on the back "Don\'t sweat it Amarion. Being good at one on one don\'t mean a thang. Basketball is a five man game."
Amarion shook his head "You ain\'t gotta cheer me up Franky. I know that I lost to the better hooper today. But this ain\'t over.
They gon be here for two weeks. I got plenty of time to get my pay back. The Nike camp will be the perfect chance."
Franky nodded his head "Yeah. You can get back at em in front of all the cameras. \'King of New York takes down up and coming star\' sounds like the perfect headline haha."
As they were talking Amarion noticed his sister approaching. He looked at her and shook his head "Not you too Jazz. You here to try and cheer me up?"
Jasmine smiled as she walked closer to her brother. She then slapped him on the back of his head "Hell no.
I know you ain\'t no weak ass bitch. It\'s gonna take more than a fat L to get to you." Amarion rubbed the back of his head.
"Damn Jazz! Just cause you ain\'t here to cheer me up don\'t mean you gotta smack the brain cells outta my skull.
You and you goddamn man hands. That shit felt like I got hit with a hammer." Jasmine smiled at her brother\'s reaction.
But a moment later the smile disappeared from her face "Listen Amarion, about Jaya-" Amarion put his hand up and stopped her mid sentence.
"I got it Jazz. I know what you\'re trying to say. Just because he cool with a bitch ass treesh like RJ don\'t mean he a part of they crew.
Ain\'t no bad blood between us because of that. I just got mad heated when I saw RJ\'s ugly ass. I ain\'t about to hold that against him or your other friends from Cali."
Jasmine sighed in relief "Thanks Amarion. I only met em today but those boys aight. They funny as fuck and they appreciate a good chopped cheese."
Amarion laughed "I think you just like the fact that they ain\'t scared of yo concrete bustin man hands haha."
Jasmine rolled her eyes "Whatever RIO. Now that I know that you good Ima head on back. Still gotta show them Cali boys around town."

Samantha had a bored look on her face as she sat at a table of the food court in the mall. Sitting across from her was Shania.
"I am soooo bored Shania. What the hell are we even doing?" Shania laughed "The fuck? You the one that called me talkin bout you need to shop to forget about your mans.
We been to like five stores and we got hella bags now. Now you\'re saying you bored?" Samantha sighed before laying her head down on her left arm.
"The shopping helped for a little bit but now I\'m bored. And Jaya\'s been ignoring all my calls ever since he left for New York!"
Shania dipped one of her fries into some ketchup before popping it into her mouth "Hmm that\'s on you girl. I showed up and watched you try on clothes for three hours. I did my part.
And why you talkin like they been gone for forever? They literally left yesterday. It ain\'t even been 48 hours.
Besides, you know how Jaya be actin. That fool never answer his phone if it ain\'t about basketball." She then pulled out her phone.
She started off with checking her texts and emails but then she got a notification. She clicked on the link and it took her to a video of Jason playing in Rucker Park.
Shania turned her head and looked at Samantha who was still laying her head down on her arm "You check Jaya\'s account recently?"
Samantha nodded her head "I checked it earlier this afternoon. The only thing he posted was a picture of him with Kyle and a couple other dudes in front of the Nike training building or whatever it\'s called."
Shania cracked a small smile "You might want to type his name in and do a quick search." Samantha raised her head and looked at Shania questioningly.
Shania didn\'t say anything as she kept her eyes on her phone. Seeing as how she was unlikely to get an answer from Shania Samantha sighed and pulled out her phone.
After typing in Jason\'s name the first thing to pop up was a video of him playing a game of one on one at the Rucker.
Samantha played the video. As she watched she couldn\'t keep herself under control "Hey! Don\'t be so rough with him!"
"Stop bumping him! Jaya\'s too delicate for that!" "Yes! Go Jaya!" "Ooh he spun around him like it was nothing!"
And when Jason hit the game winning shot right in Amarion\'s face Samantha jumped up from her chair and started yelling.
"Yes! He did it! He did it! Shania he won!" Shania pulled her back down into her chair "Girl you crazy? What the hell you doin shoutin like that in the middle of the food court?"
Samantha started to blush as she looked around and saw that everyone waiting in line for their food was staring at her.
She gave an awkward smile to Shania "Hehe sorry. I guess I just got a little excited. This only got posted a couple minutes ago but it already has thousands of views.
I guess Jaya is still Jaya. Even when he\'s in New York he finds a way to get himself in the spotlight." Samantha then began to look through all the comments of the video.
She was happy to see that most of the comments were positive as they praised Jason for his impressive performance.
But then she furrowed her brows as she saw some negative comments "These assholes must be blind! How the hell can they say anything bad about him?"
She then began to leave some comments after logging into her secret account.
PrinceJaya\'sReal#1Fan: @KDforLife Did we watch the same video you blind fuck? Jaya is obviously the better player.
PrinceJaya\'sReal#1Fan: @LameloDaGOAT Your eyes must have popped out at the beginning of the video. All I saw was Jaya dominating.
PrinceJaya\'sReal#1Fan: @Hornetsonthecomeup Shut the fuck up dude. You\'re talking all this trash but I bet your trash ass would be happy as **** to see your sorry ass franchise draft him.
PrinceJaya\'sReal#1Fan: @HelloMelo7 Get off the internet and try to work on moving out of your mom\'s basement you ******* neckbeard!
Just as Samantha was feeling good after blowing off some steam she saw a post that had Jason tagged in it.
She tapped on it and saw a picture of Jason, Kyle, and some other boys standing in front of a hot dog stand.
Below the picture was a caption that read: Having fun with my new friends from California.
Samantha then noticed a girl standing next to Jason. She was smiling as she had her arm around Jason and Kyle.
Samantha once again jumped out from her seat "Shania! We have to go to New York!"
