Winning Walker
While they conversed about me, I came to a conclusion that this school had a knack for talking about people in their presence, like they weren't there.
"Where's Walker tho?" The guy Luke had called Manny asked. "He's the captain and should be here to tell us if we have practice or not."
Luke coughed. "It's a free day today as Walker's not in school. We'll practice tomorrow."
Just like that, the conversation shifted from me to Walker and then to basketball where it rested eventually.
Thankful for the attention I was not getting, I delved into my food, promising to enjoy it, until Luke said, "Ahh, Steyn, Should we go to see Walker today?"
