Summary: Hayner is confused.
Roxas was determined, was the very least Hayner could say about his best friend.
Maybe it was the sheer will to get in shape. Maybe it was the fact that maybe Roxas realized that those ice creams weren’t going to burn the fat off of themselves. But Hayner didn’t really understand why the sudden interest in the track team.
“You know that only one out of five people who try out actually get in, right?” Pence stated, watching Roxas stretch.
“You could be supportive,” Olette replied, looking on nervously.
Defensively, Pence added, “I’m not saying he can’t,”
Hayner stood next to Roxas. “Remind me why you’re doing this?”
The four of them were standing in the school’s gym after school. The track team met every Monday and Friday after school to practice. Each member was very tall, with toned legs and those short running shorts and was nearly done with high school. Roxas, wearing his gym uniform and a white sweatband around his forehead, was almost five foot six and still had a year to go.
“My parents weren’t too happy about my gym grade last year,” Roxas replied. It was the usual response to Hayner’s question. He turned to Hayner, smiling. “I want to be a better runner,”
Yes, determined was the word Hayner wanted to use to describe Roxas at this very moment in time. Who else was crazy enough to try?
