Worst Unforgettable Experience in Playing Basketball

January 11,2018. It was the worst date and I would never forget. In Indonesian, they said January
11 was the date for teenagers who know love, which is a quotation date taken from the title of a
song, which wasn’t happened to me. Well, it all goes start like this.

That day, I was informed by the school that we would have a holiday for the next day because all
the teachers had a meeting with their agency. At that time, I was directly informed my mom, which
happened to be in apartment, to take my outfit for the basketball practice. I was very excited to go
back to Bekasi and have a basketball practice. But suddenly, it happened to be rained, I was hopeless
that I couldn’t have a basketball practice.

But then the weather had been changed back again, I was happy that I could have a basketball
practice and meet my old friends, but my mom was afraid to be rained again, I was disappointed at
that time and forced my mom to take me to the basketball practice. Well, I arrived at the basketball
court quite late which I only followed a bit of lay-up practice and followed by the game. The tragedy
happened when we were played game.

Short story, my friend who became the opponent was dribbling and I was defending him. When
he was tricking the ball and trying to get into the free throw area, my foot accidentally stumbled
with his leg and lost balance, so I fell and dragged the asphalt. Initially there was no injured, so I
continued the game. But then my coach told me to go back to the bench because my right knee was
bleeding and indeed I felt the pain on my right knee as I walked.

It took a week for my knee to go back to normal. During that week I struggled against the pain in
my knee and walked like a lame man, that was probably my worst unforgettable experience.
