22 VEINTIDOS

That Friday, Luisito rushed to the gym to see the list of who had made the basketball team. There was a big crowd so he couldn’t see the list. Some of the guys left quietly; others were high-fiving and congratulating each other. Luisito waited patiently for his turn to see the list.

“Hey, Lewis!” Paul called to him. “You made the team, man.”

Luisito felt a great relief.

“You too?” Luisito asked. He already knew the answer because Paul was one of the best players at the tryouts.

“Yep, can’t wait to start winning!” Paul said, very excited.

Finally, Luisito had joined a school team. He would have his first practice next week and soon, maybe, new friends. He desperately wanted to fit in.

He looked down the hall and saw Sherry coming with books in hand to check the list. Maybe she was looking for his name, Luisito hoped.

“I made it!” Luisito said as she approached.

“That’s great!” she exclaimed. “I knew you would.”

“Hey, some of us are going to the movies tomorrow. Want to come?” Luisito said.

“I’d love to!” Sherry said. “Maybe after the movie we can have sodas at that shop where everyone goes.”

“Great!” Luisito said. “I will call you for your address. Wait. Why don’t you just give it to me now?”

Sherry gave him her address. Luisito waved and walked down the hall feeling a little taller.
