Chapter 109 A Swing And A Miss

• Kadeem
• The following evening, Kadeem was watching anxiously while their teams played the match. Layla had secured the permission of the softball association to turn on the field lights. As the night deepened, moths around the lights swirled like a galaxy of stars.
• Ardal struck out when it was her time at bat, but the rest of Kadeem's team left no stone unturned and hit ball after ball. They were neck-in-neck with Hart's team by the ninth inning and Kadeem placed Ardal in her usual spot in right field. To everyone's dismay, she fumbled two catches putting them at an almost sure risk of losing.
