Chapter 182 - 180: 5th Of May X

The teams scuffled from the throw-in at the center, each with the opportunity that were quickly extinguished as Geoffrey took possession of the ball, he was quick to take off but Kylo and Charlton were right behind him. Charlton rode his pony next to Geoffrey's for a ride off. Geoffrey seeing his teammate Rainier was at the other side of Charlton used a backswing to pass the ball.
Rainier took possession of the ball and quickly moved away from the three who were now on the sidelines. Leonard gave a chase and when Rainier was about to hit the ball to make a goal, he successfully hooked his mallet.
However, it was 2 on 1, Alex was just behind him and hit the ball to make a goal. Thankfully, Joshua blocked the ball and passed it to Kylo who was on the clear.
Geoffrey was quick and he rode his pony next to Kylo's and bumped him to move him off the line of ball. It was effective and he again took possession of the ball. Fast on his horse, he hit the ball forward. Charlton was on the chase going for a ride off, Geoffrey who saw the Alex was on the clear made a long shot to his side.
Alex was also alert and he hit the ball forward to make an attempt for the goal, this time, all the players went for the chase, forming a train. Joshua was on the guard, Alex hit the ball to attempt for a goal but he missed.
The ball was left behind and Geoffrey was the quickest to maneuver his horse to break from the train. Geoffrey went to the ball and made the under the neck shot.
At the background, Diether kept on announcing the play by play through the speaker "And boy, does blue team player number 2 move quickly, is he moving forward, no I don't think so. And look at this man now, as he made a turn, what a skill he has, what a genius he is, and was that a goal!?"
The crowd broke into vigorous cheers when the orange flag was raised.
"It was indeed a goal! He turned the ball quite stupendously, wonderful stick control! And did I say that he's a genius? Anyway, we've just witnessed a wonderful match this afternoon. And congratulations are in order. Artemis?"
"Yes, indeed Diether. That has got to be one of the most exciting polo match I have ever encountered, and I bet that the same is true to all the audience. Both teams should be proud for displaying that level of play. So, everyone, let us all give both the teams a round of applause."
This time, everyone clapped their hands without mentioning any names.

After the match was over, the two teams lined up at midfield to shake each other's hand as a sign of sportsmanship. After that, they all went back to their respective tents to prepare for the awarding.
Kylo was looking like a fish on a chop board. He can't believe that they still lost.
Charlton seeing Kylo's expression couldn't help but chuckle. Although he felt a little disappointed that they lost, he had to admit that Geoffrey deserved the win. "Why are you looking like that?"
Joshua couldn't help but answer for him, "So that some chick will take pity on him later."
Charlton laughed at Joshua's words. Maybe he should use that strategy on Serena later, just to see how she will try to make him feel better.
"As if I need some pity to get laid." Kylo deadpanned.
Anyway, after getting changed, the two teams lined up outside their tent, waiting to be called for the awarding. As the tents of the two teams were just right beside each other, the players were all standing together.
"Good game." Geoffrey said.
Kylo replied with, "would've been better if we won."
"If you three joined polo this year, then maybe you would've won."
Kylo just smirked and responded with, "Good that you know at least that much."
Geoffrey just laughed and shook his head. He knew Kylo was bitter. Anyway, he faced Charlton. "That was one nice hook earlier."
Charlton smiled back, "Thanks, and I've got to say that you've improved again. The goal with the pony's hooves was, well as Kylo said, out of this world."
Geoffrey chortled, "Got to make use of everything I got at my disposal. Anyway, Leonard, are you escorting Serena to the after party later?"
"Why?" he asked.
"Just want to ask if you could let me escort her again." Geoffrey asked unabashedly.
His teammates started teasing him, "oohhh want to take the trophy and the girl eh?"
"Yeah, oh I just remembered, that bridal carry earlier was certainly an eye-opener." Wilfred continued.
Charlton clenched his fist behind him but did not say anything. Serena did not elaborate but now he understood what just happened.
Kylo's eyes widened. What bridal carry?
Leonard raised his brow as he asked Geoffrey's teammates. "What do you mean by that?"
Geoffrey coughed. He did not expect his teammates to bring that up. He glared at them, hopefully they would get that as their cue to shut up.
The boys who were high with their win suddenly recalled that Serena was Leonard's sister. So, they all zipped their mouth.
"Do ignore them. It was nothing." Geoffrey stated.
Leonard frowned. Recalling Geoffrey's question and how Serena reprimanded him last time, he shook his head, "No, we haven't discussed it. How about you ask her later yourself?"
Geoffrey nodded his head thinking of just looking for her during the event later.

Diether's voice again boomed through the microphone as he congratulated the awardees and called them one by one. The principal and other school dignitaries gave out the awards.
After all the awards has been distributed, the principal gave a speech for the closing ceremony.
Diether thanked their principal. Then, he announced that the soiree blanche will be held in this field later, from 8:00pm onwards.
After the announcement, everyone cheered before leaving the field.
