From Nothing to Something

Chapter 1: The Day That Best friends Fight

It was just a normal day for Lamar. He is 5 foot 10 and weighs probably 140 pounds. Lamar had brown hair with hazel eyes. He didn't look like an athletic kid. Lamar was more towards getting high grades. Lamar and his best friend named Franklin both have played basketball together since they were in kindergarten. Believe it or not Lamar used to be better than Franklin, but as basketball season came Franklin was 6 foot 6. He had black hair with brown eyes. Lamar didn't know that Franklin has been practicing basketball the whole time since Lamar has been playing football.  When Lamar tried out he was so nervous that he couldn't make a layup and his passing was horrible. He was cut from the team. Not just from Varsity he was cut from both teams. Lamar went to a big school called Richmond High. The average amount of students is about 700. Lamar knows that there is a lot of kids in his school, but he felt like he should give up on basketball because he doesn't think he is good enough. Lamar’s mood changed, he didn't want to go to school, he never did his homework, and worst of all he took out his frustration on Franklin. Lamar treated Franklin like a pile of dog shit. Franklin and Lamar’s friend ship went down the toilet. As basketball season started the two of them acted like they didn't even know who each other were.
